SOTU: What Chris Matthews’ “I forgot Obama was black for an hour” statement really means.
I could toss off some wry comment about this ridiculous comment by Chris Matthews, but the fact that he had no problem stating this on the air raises an interesting question — what is he really saying with a statement like that? What it boils down to is that there’s…
The stupidity bar keeps getting lower
What part of the word “choice” do these morons not understand? I don’t know if it’s just that I got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning or what, but it seems to me that misogyny levels in this country are getting perilously high lately. What the…
Shooting the messenger
In doing some research this morning for my LA Times piece, I saw some more fake outrage aimed at making sure that the media and the bloggers are cowed from criticizing Sarah Palin, which of course would free her to be the candidate, instead of John McCain, who unfortunately has…
Republican ‘strategist’ smacked down on Hardball for the ‘lipstick’ mess
Watch GOP “strategist” John Feehery get torched by Chris Matthews on Hardball last night. I have to hand it to Chris for focusing like a laser on this non-issue to get at the meat of the problem (and I’ve given a hard time for plenty of past wankery) — he…
That’s Change Someone Else Can Define For Me
Watching Hardball, Chris Matthews is doing a good job of tearing into the “lipstick on a pig” story…except that he then turns around, testifies to John McCain’s utter awesomeness, and then asks why people are doing this on his behalf without his approval. K-Lo declares that Palin must surely despise…
Gah
Chris Matthews just remarked that the crowd is applauding his rebuke of the GOP. Which explains why they were entirely silent when he rebuked the party or talked about any non-doctrinaire position. Much like last night, I don’t think that they watched the same speech that actual people did. Actually,…
I don’t just hate ladies, but men who I think act like ladies
I just brought myself to read the public editor Clark Hoyt’s article about sexism and the Clinton campaign in the NY Times. I was pleasantly relieved to see that he singles out Maureen Dowd, fairly, as the most egregious offender. Even better, he just lets her nonsensical defenses of her…
Why’d he have to go and call her the c-word?
Ann Althouse pulls a Larry Johnson (or, as one of her commenters calls it, a Michelle Malkin) on Chris Matthews: With complete clarity, he says the famous 4-letter c-word. Except that, if you watch the video, he totally fucking doesn’t. Advance work for the Michelle Obama non-video? Chris Matthews has…
They Write Stories
Perhaps the worst thing that Chris Matthews has done to the media is to give everyone the idea that the point of political reporting is to find an analogy, any analogy, for whatever you’re talking about – no matter how forced or pointless.…
Tucker Carlson still has a job?
Seriously, he actually did this It’s too much to hope that MSNBC will fire this asshole – unless it’s for stealing Chris Matthews’ schtick – but you might drop MSNBC a line about this anyway: Discussing Sen. Hillary Clinton’s decision to remain in the presidential race, MSNBC senior campaign correspondent…
