I want to congratulate Chris Matthews and thank him for fighting for his life in a way that makes sense. He successfully vanquished prostate cancer by having it removed through surgery. It is a far better method of intervention than "watchful waiting." I think watchful waiting is dangerous and causes a great deal of stress in a man's life. I really appreciate his honesty in discussing his prostate cancer tonight. I think other men need to hear how someone as successful as Chris Matthews makes decisions that insure their continued life with their loved ones. Thank you, Chris. It meant a lot to hear you speak this evening. It was brave and inspiring.
