"I'm being tough here."
Chris Matthews is bringing back Hillary Clinton's famous quote about Benghazi ("What difference, at this point, does it make?") in saying that it doesn't make any difference what the Boston bombers' motive was.

What about the public knowing what the threat level is out there, Chris?
Just like Keith Ellison, had this turned out to be a couple of white rednecks, Matthews et al would be all over this in blaming Republicans, conservatives, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, "gun nuts", ad nausea.
What hypocrisy!
"Chris Matthews, you've got a weak show."
The media will emphasize all other aspects of the story besides Islamic terrorism. It will be Chechnian (what does Chechniya have against Boston, or the US? - didn't we save them from the Serbians a few years ago?) Maybe they weren't getting enough free stuff or were underprivileged in some way... whatever it is, it won't be the obvious story.
