Chris Matthews Falsely Accuses Ron Paul of Saying He’d Let Someone Without Health Insurance Die
Exactly how do anchors on MSNBC get away with routinely stating complete falsehoods without any repercussions? On Tuesday, Chris Matthews wrongly accused Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul of saying during the previous evening's debate he would let a critically ill person die if the patient didn't have health insurance (video follows with transcript and commentary, file photo): CHRIS MATTHEWS, HOST: I have to say, I’ve never witnessed such a crackle of enthusiasm for executing people as I heard at the Reagan Library debate last week. I recalled it last night when I heard the clap of applause when Ron Paul said he’d let someone die if they failed to pony up for health insurance.
