Some of You people are Nuts. I just watched Chris Matthews via Tivo
He asked the questions that had to be asked.

It's only my Opinion but ont Nov 2nd Chris will be pushing the Kerry button. Where do some of you folks get this crap they he's in the bag for Bush ? What did you people want him to get on his knees an suck hard like Rush an Hannity do for their guy? I would drop all respect for Chris Matthews if he did that. His two News shows are the Best on TV. Some of you people need to get real, every thing is not Black and white...........We are Not Freepers. Chris Matthews is a Kerry guy, but he's a news guy first.

7. Well a few weeks ago there were a lot of thrilled DUers
over Matthews' giving Kerry a lot of praise, or for slagging bush--I can't remember which.

Just sayin' is all.

2. you obviously haven't been following him for the last 3 years
It has only been recently that he has become more objective

Lately, with the whore Andrea Mitchell they have been saying Kerry doesn't stand a chance

Tweety is no friend. He voted for bush in 2000 you know

3. who he votes for, or likes, is utterly irrelevant
what matters is who he WORKS FOR, which is Bush.

10. Riiight. I have no doubt that he will probably vote for Kerry this time..
But I also don't doubt that he will continue to shill for his corporate masters at GE.

5. Matthews gives you whiplash
He's like Imus -- one day all Kerry, next day all Bush.

The thing is, he's usually on his best behavior on the Sunday show so you don't necessarily see him at his most outrageous.

23. No Imus is "supporting " Kerry
but spends most of his time lamenting how stupid and lame Kerry is. Oh the irony! What a free thinking maverick you are Imus! It's just his tired shock jock shtick but no one cares what he says anyway.

14. Oh, Goody-----Let Me Handle This
This is an abbreviated summary of one of a half-dozen Tweety rants saved:

Just to round out the Tweety portrait: 1- He is our enemy. 2- The last time he was identifiably a Democrat was circa 1988 when his book, Hardball, was first published. 3- He's a political flunky who worships SUCCESS, and started "turning" through admiration for RAYGUN's kicking his Dem bosses' rears. 4- He was ABSOLUTELY VICIOUS to President GORE all through Campaign 2000. 5- He triggered a gun incident by naming, ERRONEOUSLY, Kathleen WILLEY's supposed "jogger" (Pat BUCHANAN's mentally ill brother took the gun to the house). 6- He is a de facto wingnut operative. 7- He voted for Shrub. 8- He was utterly vicious to KUCINICH, Phil DONAHUE, and SHARPTON on the air, personally vicious to them.

17. Matthews has stopped criticizing and suggesting Kerry change strategy
A couple of weeks ago he was predicting defeat for Kerry and momentum swinging to Bush unless Kerry could bring out his message stronger and have lots of positive media coverage on the evening news where Kerry was smiling like a winner in front of cheering crowds and delivering a positive but hard-hitting message. Seems like Kerry and his people have managed to do just what Chris suggested they needed to do to win!

22. "have lots of positive media coverage on the evening news "
Edited on Sun Oct-31-04 12:26 PM by sonicx
Kerry's rallies are always positive. it depends on if the media want to cover it.

btw, Kerry's supposed slump was never as profound as people like Matthews made it out to be. The polls assumed a much higher Republican turnout than would ever happen. But Matthews and co. took them at face value.

btw, he hasn't stopped critizing according to what i read here and at Media Matters(i don't watch anymore).

18. I will never forget
Chris Mathews substituted on Pigboy's show recently while Pigboy was off. He cannot be trusted.

19. Matthews from the past..
Lest we forget that Matthews once said this about Bush:

* "In Bush, the country discovered it had a young leader rising to the occasion, an easy-going Prince Hal transformed by instinct and circumstance into a warrior King Henry."

George Bush as Henry V..only a Bushie would even attempt a comparison.

Just an observation, no biggie.

24. Matthews is neither pro-Kerry nor pro-*
He's just an extremely shitty, wishy-washy "journalist" who loves to hear his own tweety voice above all else.
