Cheney made a fool of Chris Matthews. Payback time

[Proud2BAmurkin]

Matthews is all over Cheney's LIES today. Last night he was puking up Cheney's lies as evidence Cheney "won"

When will these idiots learn that everything that comes out of this admins smirking mouth is a LIE?

[umtalal]

1. Chris Mathews is in the late afternoon. I can't switch teletubbies rule!!!

[Ducks In A Row]

10. Po!!!!!

[proud patriot]

2. The first words out of Matthews mouth when the debate concluded

"well will the liberal admit that cheney won?"

I will never forget it .

[wicket]

16. what made Matthews change his mind so fast??

Sheesh, overnight he has completely changed!

[PROGRESSIVE1]

3. When did he say this? Why did he change his mind? And finally,

I'd like his email address so that I can tell him (Tweety) to go "F"-himself in the arse!

:argh:

Tweety is swine to the hilt!!!

[cally]

13. Could you explain what you mean by this phrase

"F"-himself in the arse! Yes I understand the physical meaning, but why is it an insult. Is it an insult to gay men, to heterosexual couples who have anal sex, just why is it an insult?

I've heard this insult many times. A similar insult is that he or she is down on their knees. OK :eyes: why is that an insult?

[democrat in Tallahassee]

32. it is a physical impossibility

[kerry-is-my-prez]

34. Maybe it's a combo of "head up your ass" and "go fuck yourself."

4. He Was Amazing on "Today" Today

He actually tried to explain to Ann Curry that just because a politician says something, it's not necessarily true. She responded as if the concept was some great new insight that she was going to need a while to understand.

[PROGRESSIVE1]

14. How whorish was Curry?

[Akbar]

24. Not So Much Whorish as Clueless

I think in her career as an aspiring television personality, she's been led to believe (like many others) that in order to be fair, you have to treat both sides of an argument as if they are of equal merit.

So Cheney says "I never said there were WMDs in Iraq" and Tweetie says "NBC has proof that Cheney said there were WMDs in Iraq" and Curry seemed to dismiss the issue as a sort-of he-said-he-said. She even said something like "but Vice President Cheney said..." seeming to believe that Cheney's lie somehow counters the fact that he was lying when he said it.

I don't think she has an agenda. I think she's just an especially dim bulb, which is all too common in the network infotainment industry. I just wish they'd seriously try to shred any pretense to "journalism."

25. Sad

:(

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

5. Tweety didn't need DarthCheney to make a fool of him.

He does that very nicely himself. On a regular basis.

[democrank]

6. I know what changed Matthews` mind.....

It was the red hot email I sent today. Five paragraphs that I hope burned his eyes out, including the part where I told him instead of braying about Cheney`s gravitas he should spend the time washing the Iraq War blood off his hands. I suggested he got with MSNBC Republican star Joe Scarborough and perhaps the two of them could explain to us why they didn`t question the Iraq invasion but had plenty of time to cheer for Freedom Fries contests. I`m so sick of these fools.

[ProfessorPlum]

7. Tweety has been letting this administration crap in his mouth

For over four years - it certainly started during the last campaign. Don't expect him to display righteous indignation- at least not any that lasts. He is inconsistent, and whorish.

[MatrixEscape]

9. And imagine how his breath smells by now! n/t

[Akbar]

30. Don't Crap in My Mouth and Tell Me It's Worms n/t

.

[TheFarseer]

18. I think that's accurate

I can't help liking Tweety because he's not always on bush's side like so many of them. I can't honestly tell who he's voting for. But he does seem to be cheering for whoever is winning at the time.

[PROGRESSIVE1]

27. Then watch Olberman, he's the furthest thing from a mediawhore MSGOP has.

[seabeyond]

8. he is gullible. remember the swift boat commercial

and he was saying well the doctor in there is what did it for me. and the dem representitive said, the doctor wasnt the one to treat kerry and he didnt have his signature on kerrys papers, he wasnt there. that floored tweety. they lied, no way. and has since gone after swift boat

i think he just beleives the shit told him. when he finds out he was a sucker he gets mad. same with the 9/11 widows

[spooky3]

22. please don't insult the 9/11 widows by comparing them with Tweety.

As far as I know they have changed course only once--once they realized they were being misled by this admin., that was it for them, and they are working for principle alone. Tweety changes daily, hourly, in the hopes that he'll attract attention and keep his job.

[seabeyond]

31. tweety was on side of admins with 9/11, then tweety listened

to the widows. once he listened to what those women said, he profoundly got outraged on the adminstration. their refusal of the commission, the not giving them the time. it was the widows that opened his eyes. that was the first time, not the last time i have seen the truth hit tweety upside the head,.............and his extreme reaction

after that and with the richard clarke book, he really went after bush fro a time. we thought he might lose his job. but he really fell in love with those women and stuck up for them, and had them front and center on his show

now what you are talking about i dont know. i have nothing but admiration for thses women

[AmerDem]

11. Tweety and crew made a fool out of themselves

He must live a tormented life having to live up to clicks and inner-circle talk. Their is no spine there what so ever!

[Ksec]

12. Tweety is like the weather in Ohio

Turn around and its changed.

I give him credit for one thing. And that is staying consistently confused .

[calico1]

15. Don't blame Cheney.

Matthews does a good job on his own of making a fool of himself. If instead of basing his comments on what he thinks the public reaction will be and instead of kissing up to whomever he thinks will get him the best ratings he would instead do his job as a serious journalist, then these things wouldn't happen. He guessed ahead that Cheney would beat the crap out of Edwards and rather then actually pay atttention to the debate, he simply babbled his comments based on his stupid prediction. Now he sees the reaction does not support him and he looks like the ass that he is. He has no credibility as far as I am concerned. He is just another cheap media whore.

[shrub chipper]

17. I try not to be nasty in the emails I send to the whores

but after last night's cheerleading (why DID I watch?), I had to call him a dumbass.I also rubbed his nose in the current debate polls and wondered how he missed it so bad.

[Old and In the Way]

19. Tweety always take Republican talking points as facts and Democratic

statements as distortions....he is often shocked and bewildered to find that he was taken in. Almost a role he plays on a simulated news program.

[DemocracyInaction]

20. Bet I know what happened

He read the polls. He also read the polls pouring into MSNBC and saw what the audience is composed of. He's a brown noser looking to hold his job and his big paycheck. He's a terrible analyst. He would be on the side of Charlie Manson if it proved popular.

[Reciprocity]

21. Yea I noticed the MSNBC is now touting they want name a winner.

Someone should have told Matthews. He was positively orgasmic over Cheney last night.

[high density]

23. Olbermann has changed his mind as well

He was giving Cheney a "marginal victory" last night, but now he's giving it to Edwards given that the main "smackdown" from Cheney ("The first time I ever met you was when you walked on the stage tonight") was a lie.

28. Excellent article. My only comment is in relation to the

reporter who said it was a "feel good moment" when Cheney conceded his 90 second response with regard to the gay issue. He did that because he agrees with Edwards. If he hadn't said thank you and shut up, what else could he have said? I don't think him saying, "what he said" would hold much water with the right wing neo-cons who actually confuse homosexuality with NAMBLA and think that gay teachers are in schools for recruitment purposes!

Rant over. Thank you.

[Sivart]

26. Scarborough.....

Did anyone hear scarborough's comment during after hours?

He was showing the web page with his web poll on the debate, which at the time was 68 percent for Edwards, and 31 percent for Cheney. His comment was something like.....the people voting in the online poll must be drinkning vodka.....or something to that effect.

If it had come from someone else it could have been fairly offensive, but it was just Sherrif Woody (aka Joe Scarborough), so I got a laugh out of it.

[bush equals idiot]

29. I sent Matthews

How does it feel to be wrong again? You and Scarborough should have a pretty healthy number of checks by now with the White House seal on it.

Only one thing, you won't get to pick the President this time.

[Awsi Dooger]

33. Matthews is the most inept and spineless debate analyst of all time

In 6 debates from 2000 and 2004, he has maintained the same opinion only once -- that Bush had a clear advantage in debate #2 in 2000, the foreign policy debate with Gore in a self-imposed coma. I have a dozen VCR tapes from 2000, including the debates and post-debate analysis. This year he has merely replaced Peggy Noonan with Andrea Mitchell as a nearby parrot.

It's absolutely hysterical to watch Matthews spin with the wind after a day or less post debate, completely contradicting his immediate views no matter how emphatic they were. This time was most predictable of all.

Last night I was surprised by Scarborough, who is usually more competent. But at least Scarborough began to wilt after a while, even asking a GOP stooge what happens if Edwards is judged the winner and that means the Reps are 0-2 going into Friday. Minus his booster chair shove, Chris Matthews was totaly incapable of spitting out that question last night.

[deadparrot]

35. Matthews will go to bat for the side that's winning. He's a whore.
