Chris Matthews Criticizes Obama Using Cheney's "Dithering" Remark (VIDEO)

Reported by Huffington Post on Saturday, 21 November 2009 (on November 21, 2009)

On Friday night\'s \"Hardball\" with Chris Matthews, MSNBC host Matthews took a page out of Dick Cheney\'s book and accused the president of \"dithering\" over Afghanistan.

\"President Obama has his chin out on just about every hot issue out there. Health care. Terror trials. Job losses.\" Matthews began. He then launched a series of aggressive questions going after many of the president\'s recent decisions.

\"Is he just too darned intellectual? Too much the egghead? Why did he bow to that Japanese emperor? Why did he pick Tim Geithner to be his economic front-man? Why all this dithering over Afghanistan? And who thought it was a wonderful idea to bring the killers of 9/11 to New York City, the media capital of the world, so they could tell their story?\"

The former vice president accused Obama of \"dithering while America\'s armed forces are in danger,\" in October, to much backlash.
