4 Years Ago Today

May 1, 2003, George Bush: "Major combat operations in Iraq have ended."

Here is what Chris Matthews, member of our "liberal media", said about the Pres to Keith Olbermann 4 years ago today:

We're proud of our president. Americans love having a guy as president, a guy who has a little swagger, who's physical, who's not a complicated guy like [former President Bill] Clinton or even like [former Democratic presidential candidates Michael] Dukakis or [Walter] Mondale, all those guys, [George] McGovern. They want a guy who's president. Women like a guy who's president. Check it out. The women like this war. I think we like having a hero as our president. It's simple. We're not like the Brits. We don't want an indoor prime minister type, or the Danes or the Dutch or the Italians, or a [Russian Federation President Vladimir] Putin. Can you imagine Putin getting elected here? We want a guy as president.

Update:
Atrios has more quotes from the day after. Don't eat before you read - it will make you puke.

Update II:
Matthew Yglesias has even more. Same warning - don't eat before you read this crap.
