Tweetie... Hardball.. says Kerry is ahead overall....

[snowbear]

FINALLY, he gets it right!! (only by 2 points.. but what the hell!)

:bounce:

[Shopaholic]

1. So he's having another mood swing huh?

Or another one of his schizophrenic moments. My guess is that he'll be back on the B/C bandwagon any moment now. But at least he got one thing right this week.

[Jack_Dawson]

2. But is Ron Silver on his Panel?

When he's there, I erase my TiVo and take a shower. Certain people I can't stand for more than 5 seconds.

Ron Silver
Sean Hannity
Dr. Laura

If I'm missing anyone please let me know.

[Tennessee Gal]

12. You missed one...............

Bob Novak

"No Facts"

[The Backlash Cometh]

13. Silver reminds me of some of the bad guys he played in the

movies. Good typecasting.

[seabeyond]

16. ginsberg has been a favorite of late. talk about the puke

face you al put on. he is it, yuk

[Jack_Dawson]

20. Oh YEAH! I HATE that Puke too...good catch

He's like a bald, bearded Hannity. No objectivity, all talking-points.

[emulatorloo]

21. Ben is being ****PAID*** by MSNBC to shill for Bush

They list him as MSNBC Consultant. . .sickening, isn't it?

(My guess is that they had to hire somebody because the Bush-bots won't talk to Tweety directly anymore since Malkin and Zell Miller blowouts)

[seabeyond]

25. got caught being crooked and msnbc hires him

scarsborough gets caught with a dead woman in office, doesnt run for office adn they hire him.

man look at all the crooked lying thieving repugs talking family and christian values as the dems live it

[Jack_Dawson]

26. What happened w/ Malkin?

I missed it but hear it referenced from time to time.

[seabeyond]

28. what i know, she was accusing kerry of self inflicting wounds

for purple heart and matthews laid into her for three four minutes one night. kept cutting her off and saying, tell me are you saying he shot himself, she would try to justify and he would call her on it again. wouldnt let up. made a lot of righties mad

[Jack_Dawson]

29. Good for Tweety!

Call them on their shyte. Wish I had seen it.

[Cats Against Frist]

42. I'm trying to get this nickname for Ginsberg to catch on: "little gray"

that's what UFO buffs call the aliens with the tear-shaped eyes and giant craniums. That's what he reminds me of.

[snowbear]

3. LOL..

Yep! A Tweetie mood-swing! ---> :silly:

[madmax]

9. PMS... lol

[katusha]

4. tweety leans repub on certain days

MON. TUE. WED. he leans repub.
THU. FRI. he leans dem.

[snowbear]

5. LOL..

Jack.. no Ron Silver or panel.. He's got two reps of the Catholic church arguing back & forth..

:bounce:

[RareLubbockDem]

6. whats with this screaming guy?

If i were Catholic, I'd hate to think he represents me.

[Barney Rocks]

7. Tweetie is bipolar.

He will take a different combo of meds--and then say that Bush is up by 2. I haven't watched him in months and I don't miss him at all.

Tonight, I will be tuning in to C-Span to see Barack Obama kick a crazy man's ass! It should be great fun. I may even tape it to show to freepers---I can embarass them by saying things like--do you agree with YOUR Republican candidate for Senate--about abortion being "infanticide"? etc

Great fun I am looking forward to tonight!!!

[ruggerson]

35. Yep, he did his Sybil number tonight

It was actually the best show he's had in months

[in_cog_ni_to]

8. William Donohue is having a conniption FIT over the 18 points (?)

Kerry picked up with the Catholics. I LOVE it. He's head of The Catholic League and he ain't happy! :bounce:

[MADem]

10. He's insane, and he does not represent anything other than

...the far right, let's go back to the old days, Catholic church. Him and Ray Flynn, what a pair!

[DemocratSinceBirth]

15. He Reminds Me Of A Catholic Meyer Kahane....

All orthodoxies spook me...


He wouldn't answer Tweety's question...

If abortion is a crime should the woman be imprisoned...

[MADem]

22. He does not DARE answer that question

...because if he says what he thinks (lock the whores up) then a LANDSLIDE would surely bring him and his candidate down.....

[DemocratSinceBirth]

24. I Thought He Might Say The Woman Was "Innocent"

because she's trapped into the decision...


But then he has to deal with the fact that mature thirty, forty year old women have abortions..


The death penalty and abortion are the most difficult moral and political decisions to make...

[Arugula Latte]

31. His motto:

"The Inquisition. It wasn't so bad!"

[Reciprocity]

11. Looks like Multiple Matthews is at it again.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

17. When He Wants To He Can Rip Anybody A New One...

He's a great debater...



He trapped that guy from the Catholic league with the bus question...

[secular_warrior]

30. Yep. I'd give him that. Tweet's a whore, but he's the best

of these "shouting pundits". Tweety has a talent that goes beyond the average shoutfest. He is an original.

Matthews' analysis is usually smart and relevant, even if I don't agree with it. He knows exactly how to trap people -like a tough prosecutor doing a cross examination. Other pundits don't go as far as he does, or do it as artfully. Most of these other shows such as Crossfire and Hannity are scripted, and simply imitations of Matthews' style, IMO.

[Harlan James]

14. Nyock! Nyock! Nyock!

What Tweety
would look
like if his
haircut was
just a tiny
bit tighter.

[DemocracyInaction]

18. If Matthews was a woman, can you imagine the stuff they would be

saying about "her"??? There would be the "dumb blonde bimbo" dismissive remarks. She would be rediculed for PMS mood swings. It would be suggested that she seek professonal help. But as a man, they pay him an ungodly amount of money to shoot spittal at the camera and act like he actually can analyze politics.

[Mojambo]

19. I just can't express how little I care about his opinion. n/t

[Iceburg]

32. Ditto

[BlueScreen]

23. Tweety says whatever helps drive the drama

It's like watching Survivor. You know that Mark Burnett is somewhat artificially creating a narrative where little may really exist. But it's fun to watch, so we buy into it.

But when Tweety does this with each candidate's electoral outlook, it becomes something different. By Matthews jockeying all over the map, he is able to represent himself as a fair moderator, and also help keep the tension high for election night, which General Electric (oops, sorry) MSNBC has invested a lot of dough in. Of course, Matthews doesn't care that in the process he is actually swaying voters. He's only in it for the false drama.

What was it that Jon Stewart accused Crossfire of? Political theater. Never truer than in the case of GE's upcoming election night coverage.

[AusTexDem]

34. You are dead on. It's all about the horse race.

and he thinks he is a political rock star.

[rockydem]

27. It must have killed him to say it

[rockymountaindem]

37. You, sir, have stolen 2/3rds of my name!

I demand it back!

[rockydem]

38. I wanted your name - in a matter of time

I will have it all!!!!

Bwahahahahahahahahahahaha!

[rockymountaindem]

39. You'll have to pry it from my cold dead screen...

I'll never surrender (dum dum dum dummmmmmmm....)

Where ya from, my Rocky Mountain neighbor?

[rockydem]

40. Santa Fe

you?

[Say_What]

41. Big Tony Hillerman fan--I've read most of his books and I always

have my Indian Country map close by when reading. :-)

Welcome to DU! :hi:

[rockydem]

43. Hillerman is a good writer

I dig him too.

[rockymountaindem]

44. Colorado Springs, Colorado.

The hotbed of reactionary conservatism itself.

Fortunately, I now study at the University of Toronto. Don't get me wrong, most of Colorado is absolutely great, but the attitude around the Springs is very conservative. Not to mention that the city's supposedly beautiful surroundings pale in comparison to those of many other places in the state.

[PROGRESSIVE1]

33. Bipolar Tweety strikes again!

[bush equals idiot]

36. Tweeties laugh.

HA !!

He's like the weather report. Partially brain dead with occasional lapses of sanity. They will be brief.
