Washington Journal was very entertaining this morning as Jason Mattera was given an opportunity to articulate conservative values to a large CSPAN audience. Like most in the CSPAN audience, this was my first time hearing Jason speak at length and I must say I was quite impressed. He is very informed on the issues he has written about and was able to easily refute arguments from callers based on actual substance rather than platitudes.
What was especially entertaining was that several callers simply didn’t like him because he was ‘so young’ and they mentioned (I believe) on a couple of occasions that he was acting like a know it all. I can understand why they got that impression because Jason did seem to ‘know it all’ this morning. Once they hung up Jason quickly identified them as ‘Obama Zombies’. No doubt that he was right on the money there. I would have loved to hear a caller’s response to that, though I doubt it would have been aired. On the other side of the spectrum, I dare say that maybe 2 callers actually supported him, which made for an even better discussion.
It runs about 38 minutes but I assure you it’s worth watching.
Enjoy:
