Black Bishop Slams Chris Matthews

The SACSTW Time Machine Returns

Chris (Tingles) Matthew's new tattoo.

Back in January, the SACSTW Physics Department put the finishing touches on our new time machine prototype.  Unfortunately, it was only operational long enough to let us see a partial Chris Matthews' interview with Barack Obama after Tim Tebow is inaugurated as president next January. 

The good news is that the boys in R&D got the time machine back up and running.  The bad news is that we used it for another Chris (Tingles) Matthews interview.  This time however; we went back in time instead of forward. In fact we went back just one day to help Bishop Harry Jackson prepare for his Chris Matthews Hardball interview.

Harry Jackson is a black bishop who has spoken out against gay marriage and was on Hardball yesterday.  Many of you have read about it or seen the video clip.  But for those of you who missed it, here are the highlights:

TINGLES MATTHEWS: Do you think he (Jesus) would have been chasing after the kid with long hair and cutting his hair or he would have been the one protecting the kid with long hair in high school?

BISHOP HARRY JACKSON: He would have been protecting the kid with long hair.

MATTHEWS: Right. I thought so. But you're with the guy who was going after the kid with long hair.

JACKSON: No, no, no. I'm not necessarily with him right now.

MATTHEWS: Oh, you're not with Romney?

JACKSON: I'm not with Romney at this point. I want to say something about righteousness and justice. The Bible talks very clearly about how righteousness, which is like personal morality and holiness. It also talks about justice. What's broken in American politics is that the Democrats think they own social justice. The Republicans think they own righteousness, but the Bible doesn't take righteousness or justice, it takes righteousness and justice.

Later in the interview 

JACKSON: Why not let the Muslims have polygamy and bigamy?

MATTHEWS: Mr. Bishop, I hope you evolve. Thank you very much. I'm just teasing.

JACKSON: That's all right.

The Crew and I zipped back to yesterday morning before the interview and filled in Bishop Jackson on what to expect from Tingles Matthews.  This is how the interview went the second time:

TINGLES MATTHEWS: Do you think he (Jesus) would have been chasing after the kid with long hair and cutting his hair or he would have been the one protecting the kid with long hair in high school?

BISHOP HARRY JACKSON: He (Jesus) would have been protecting the kid with long hair.  He also would have been with the little girl that President Obama pushed and bullied when he was in school. And with all the babies murdered by abortions whole-heartedly supported by President Obama.  And with the millions of people who have lost their jobs and gone on food stamps since Obama became president.

MATTHEWS: Uhhhhhhh. But you're with the guy who was going after the kid with long hair.

JACKSON: Yes, there is absolutely no way I could ever again support Barack Obama for president.  

MATTHEWS: Oh, you're with Romney?

JACKSON: I'm with Romney at this point. I want to say something about righteousness and justice. The Bible talks very clearly about how righteousness, which is like personal morality and holiness. It also talks about justice. What's broken in American politics is that the Democrats think they own social justice. The Republicans think they own righteousness, but the Bible doesn't take righteousness or justice, it takes righteousness and justice.

Later in the interview  

JACKSON: Why not let the Muslims have polygamy and bigamy?

MATTHEWS: Mr. Bishop, I hope you evolve. Thank you very much. I'm just teasing.

JACKSON: Evolve into what Chris?  Evolve into the man (BHO) you so clearly adore?  Evolve into a man who doesn't have to guts to stand for his convictions except when they're politically expedient?  A man that was for gay marriage, then against gay marriage, and now for it again?  This man is the top of your evolutionary pyramid?

MATTHEWS: Uhhhh, that's all we have time for today.  Thank you very much.  I'm now going  back to my dressing room to curl up into the fetal position.  

Wow, am I glad we have a time machine!  That was really fun.  Unfortunately, it's really expensive to run so devoted SACSTW readers might have to wait a while before we can fire it up again.
