Hardball: Chris Matthews Calls Hillary Clinton Supporters "Castratos"

We've documented and made fun of Chris Matthews' man-crushes before. How many times have we seen him get starry-eyed and gushy over Bush's raw manliness, Fred Thompson's manly smell or Mitt Romney's broad shoulders? But his misogyny--especially as it applies to Hillary Clinton--is really offensive. And his blindness to it is astonishing, especially for a man to whom politics and campaigning is everything in life.
Case in point: we're about to have the first primaries of the 2008 presidential race in less than three weeks. So naturally, candidates are lining up and trumpeting their endorsements. But for Tweety, having someone like Joe Lieberman cross purported party lines to endorse John McCain and break his promise to help elect Democrats isn't nearly as outrageous as Democrats (and fairly moderate ones at that) backing the candidate at the top of the Democratic polls:
MATTHEWS: I’m talking about the moral weight on these people who are willing to do anything now. You got Vilsack out there now, Strickland, Evan Bayh. Everyday I pick up a paper, there’s another quote from some wannabe, saying whatever the Clinton people told him to say apparently. Do these lines look like they’re being fed?
CILIZZA: It's politics, Chris!
MATTHEWS: Let me find some outrage here, can I get some from Chrystia? I’m not getting any from you. Chrystia, aren’t you appalled at the willingness of these people to become castratos in the eunuch chorus here, or whatever they are? What do you call them? I don’t know what they are. What do you think of these people?
Castratos, Chris? Eunuch chorus? Really nicely loaded imagery of Hillary as a literal emasculator. I'm not in any way endorsing Hillary, but I can't see how having supporters and endorsements from them should be looked upon as some ball-busting anomaly. Taylor Marsh has more on the insulting double standards of the Presidential Beauty Pageants.
Methinks that Chris Matthews has some very serious issues with women in powerful positions. And he owes Hillary--and her supporters--an apology.
Thanks to Paddy for the tip

Jesus Chris, sounds like you need to go occupy a stall at an airport for awhile.
I could be wrong, but isn't the term "castrati"? Maybe Tweety has firsthand knowledge, though.
Ha ha ha. How much more pathetic can this guy get? And he still has long way to go to reach the level of his watchers.
I think he's afraid strong women leaders might castrate his Hardball...
Matthews stopped blowing Ann Coulter long enough to say something like that? damn.
Hillary's too manly for Tweety. He like whimpy chickenhawk Republican men with little d**ks.
I used to watch Matthews, but his hostility towards Clinton is just too much; and he IS apparently blind to his own prejudice.
I may look at his show again after the election.
If Clinton happens to win, it will be fun to see his rage. If she doesn't, he'll probably be finished attacking her.
I certainly agree with Nicole Belle and Taylor Marsh. As much as I dislike H. Clinton, Matthews' comments are, while being mysteriously expressed, can certainly be construed as being loathsome and misogynistic. Perhaps his former bouts with the demon rum are coming back to haunt him.
Methinks tweety has a problem with his mommy. He always whips out his book of words nobody ever uses when memories of hours in mommy closet come back to haunt him.
I also liked how Bob Kerry was once an independent because he gave up his Senate seat and dated Debra Winger. He's now a eunuch for endorsing Clinton.
You know those "picture a day" videos that show people aging over the years with one snapshot from every day of their lives? Perhaps someone could compile a "statement a day" video of Matthews speaking throughout the years. We could watch the process of somebody losing his mind.
So he's saying that if a man speaks up for Hillary, he has no testicles. He's saying any male who supports her is P-whipped.
I have seen his wife on his show and he sits there when she talks and never interrupts her. He's a totally different person.
I think he resents strong women and if he were on the couch, I would ask him what his mother was like as he was growing up. I'm guess she ran ruled the roost and he always wanted his dad to stand up to her. He wanted a big strong manly sort of father figure and maybe he never had it. Oops our hour is up Mr. Matthews. There will be no charge for today's session.
Chris Matthews HATES the Clintons!! He especially hates Hillary. I have heard of people who are critical, but, for a short period of time I watched Chris today and he was salivating at the mouth talking about Hillary. I simply cannot watch him anymore
Good catch Nicole and I agree.
Let's try this again
I think he resents strong women and if he were on the couch, I would ask him what his mother was like as he was growing up. I’m guessing she ruled the roost and he always wanted his dad to stand up to her. He wanted a big strong manly sort of father figure and maybe he never had it. Oops our hour is up Mr. Matthews. There will be no charge for today’s session.
(Damned typing gremlins)
Takes one to know one, Tweety. Have wished you'd leave MSNBC for quite a long while now. Maybe this election run-up will finally put someone like David Shuster in the driver's seat of Hardballs instead of Lame-O. I can dream.
Or maybe he is envious of strong women. Hmmm.
#3 You are correcto, it is "castrati" and it refers to little boys with a no testicles, usually in a choir.
"castrato" may be his americanized pronunciation of the spanish command "castrate me". I can only go on guesswork here because there is no known example on earth of a language that had made this a "phrase", or part of the "vernacular", certainly no common everyday slang.
Tweety is jealous of all women being another cross dressing Reslug.
That's "castrati" Chris, you dumba$$.
Media Matters has a good piece on Tweety and his professed political "independence"' and lack of bias concerning the Clintons and Giuliani.In fact over the time surveyed he made 82 negative remarks about the Clintons and 8 about Rudy.
How "objective" Chris.
I wonder if the nuns rogered him with a sandpaper dildo when he was a boy. Or what kind of monster his mother must have been. Or is he just a closet queen? The world wonders.
Tweety, time to come out and admit your love for c8ck and balls.
i got to laugh !who gives a flying fuck what tweety says?????????????????????????????????????
oldtree @ 18:
"castrato" refers to the "singular" I believe...
I think Matthews caught Hillarystalkeritis from having a cuddle puddle with Dick Morris
Eff Tweety!
Ruthless People @ 7:
Like Ann Coulter?
Chris has hated Hillary ever since she de-nutted him about six months ago at some event... The video was here on C&L. You can tell he's still smarting from it.
And Yet... @ 16:
How dare you dream what I and and thousands dream over and over!!!!
Tweety and his Wife. We can see who the real boss is.
Every time I see this dude I always imagine him as an overaged guest of honor at a NAMBLA meeting.

oldtree Says
It refers to singers who were castrated AS little boys to prevent their voices from changing, at a rate of about 4,000 a year in 17th and 18th century Italy. Castrato is the singular, castrati, the plural.
Singing in the pain
---snip---
"Castrati were the singing superstars of the 18th Century. But, as a new exhibition illustrates, theirs is a tale with some modern parallels.
They look rather innocent in the museum display case - like a pair of old-fashioned shears. But these "castratori" were the implements used to castrate boys - who were making an irreversible sacrifice for their singing careers...
"..."The best castrati were superstars, adored by female fans. Their voices had a tremendous emotional impact on the audiences of the day," said Sarah Bardwell, director of the Handel House Museum, which is staging the exhibition..."
Tweety knows his days are numbered on MSNBC. His ratings continue to fall because of his lack of journalistic integrity. Now he's just auditioning for a show on Faux News once he gets canned.
Any one who supported Bush, should keep there mouth shut They know nothing. other words completely dumb
How can we make sure that Matthews gets to see these comments. There seems to be no one at MSNBC keeping him under control. Surely, there is someone there, that has some say, over what these "hosts" get to say ? He is totally obnoxious on tonites show (5 pm)too. So glad that his remark to Cilizza was picked up by Nicole. I was appalled and outraged and really would like to know what can be done about this horror of a man. I feel like he bordering on insane ,and we have to watch this.
Orangutan. @ 14:
Thank you so much for documenting that, Nicole! I saw that yesterday & was beyond stunned. I've seen Tweety's misogynistic rantings about Hillary before but that was one for the Misogynist's Record Book. He is truly sick & disturbed when it comes to Hillary Clinton. MSNBC needs to send him on hiatus while he gets professional help for his deep-seated misogyny & Hillary obsession. Seriously, he's way off the spool. I don't know why he hates women so much, especially Hillary Clinton; I don't care why. I do know that he needs help before he flat-lines during another drooling rage about Hillary's pantsuits & Chinese clapping. He's a lunatic ready to explode.
Here's a verse from an aria of Handel's "Julius Caesar", written for Senesino, a famous alto castrato of the eighteenth century. It's an apt description of many politicians, Hillary included.
As crafty Huntsmen, in Pursuit of Prey
Unseen, and hush'd in silence, stalk along;
So those whom Malice prompts to base Designs
Conceal from every Eye, their dark Intent
In a perfect world, Keith Olbermann would nominate his colleague for Worst Person in the World.
I guarantee you, if I were.....oh, say, Mitt, for example, and wanted someone to guard my harem, I'd sure pick Matthews over Hillary.
(Wow, what an unintended innuendo!)
"Those weapons of mass destruction have got to be here somewhere."
I had hoped to forget that trade in sack trimming to grab the audience. It had the same effect as rap music did. lot's of real musicians just aren't built for either one. Talent or balls? what a choice a little kid didn't get to make
Chris has been crazy for a long time.
The book he released recently just proves that he is not only crazy on TV, but that he uses the same techniques in real life. I am very glad Jon Stewart embarassed him in front of millions.
At this point, the most interesting thing about his show is to see how many people can actually finish their thought.
When can we expect Rachael Maddow to replace matthews?
I HOPE IT'S SOON. :) Her smiling face. love it
Some hypocritical statements from this site.
Last Thu. & Fri. both Hardball and Countdown had segments on some of the clinton campaign "dirty tricks" yet none of the 4 made it here. Sounds like "clinton Denial Syndrome" is rampant here.
Nicole, really, Taylor Marsh ? Anyway, all things tweety aside, hillary's supporters have been doing a hatchet job the last ten or fifteen days. You would think it was the cons throwing out this shit. I guess that's why she had to fire the three people she did.
I sent an e-mail of complaint to MSNBC. So far no response.
If we can dispense with the hillary love fest long enough to talk about tactics.
when you hear things like the Bob kerry quote I've got to wonder why a man known to be as honorable as kerry would say something as sleazy about Obama.
Face it, a lot of these endorsements have been blackmailed out of these politicians because they don't have the huevos to stand up to the Clinton political machine.
cecilia @ 48:
Unfortunately, I doubt if a response will be forthcoming from MSNBC. A couple of months ago I had written to Countdown, expressing mild criticism of Olbermann for presenting few, if any, anti-war activists on his program. I was then blocked from sending out any more missives to Countdown. Apparently, even the so-called good guys or their staff can act in just as reprehensible a manner as those on the right.
Off Topic but drudge has a splash up from the National Enquirer. You know the paper equivalent of his website.
Anyway headline is. There is a secret John Edwards baby out their. Mom is pregnant and in hiding.
Is that the big scandal everyone is sitting? If so I bet she turns out to be a surrogate.
Back on topic now:
MSNBC should really run a disclaimer before tweety's show. He is so nasty towards Clinton he is making Rush look like a moderate.
My gaydar says, HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM.
OT: [Exactly. It is OT. Calling it does not excuse it and allow it to stand. If you haven't noticed, your posts don't show up immediately. We did that because of your ubiquitous OT spam messaging. Thanks for knocking it off-Sitemonitor]
Me thinks Chris Matthews should take up drinking again. Maybe then her would make more sense. Hey, I want my OWN TV show too. Hardball's hehe hehe.
roxnev @ 36:
Exactly! If I had supported Bush (the way Chris Matthews did) I would now be too mortified to say anything about anything.
The comments by Chris Matthews says alot about how he feels about his wife and daughter. One might think he protest to much and maybe Chris is really a girly man like the Larry Craig Club. NBC better be careful we know Tucker is in the closet but Chris is starting to come out. I say Chris don't get made at Hillary for being a woman do what Rudy does just put on a dress and show your stuff. Now Bill Clinton not only has to worry about woman running after him it looks like Tweety wants Bill too. Thank Goodness BIll has the secret service to check the men's room for him or Tweety will be tap tap to Bill.
OK, even though I do not like Hillary at all I do think that this is going too far. However, I think that Hillary has set the record for sliming fellow Democrats. I'm beginning to think that the plan is to help the Republicans win.
She has to know that if she wins the nomination this comment is going to look absolutely mild. The journalists never liked her (the feeling is mutual), and they are just chomping at the bit waiting to tear her down once she is the Democratic candidate. Chris is just jumping the gun. I sometimes think that the plan is to destroy the Democratic party -- maybe she and Liberman have a plot cooked up.
Matthews may not realize this but he needs to actually have a penis in the first place and have it cut-off to be a castrati. If a pair of toe-nail clippers can do the job which I suspect would be the case for Chris Matthews, he's most likely technically one to begin with. Personal note to Chris...don't fear the Hillary supporters. They aren't after you.
A person I am close to works in the building where Chrissie has moved his/her 3 ring man-crush circus into ; NBC channel 4 in Wash DC . This insider says Tweety is a self-obsessed , major pain-in-the-ass and a detriment to his host office moral . His upper (entire) floor studio , which he Demanded be lavishly remodeled in the fashion fit for a Kable Kackle King , is in sharp contrast to the rest of the building . Here , the proletariat find worn out carpet seams sticking up , waiting for their trip & fall and all the other shoddy conditions you would expect in a neglected office environment due to drastic budget cuts and corporate indifference .
Only the Best for "everyman" Chris Matthews , the Grand Pooba who KNOWS he is history , not just reporting on it !
His fellow workers justifiably , but fearfully resent it .
Chris is completely consummed with hate for Hillary Clinton and to me it looks like we need get somebody that reads body language... but that might drive the body language reader into a breakdown just watching him pop up from his chair, face flushed, eyes bulged, eyebrows quivering, voice trembling and fist pounding shouting about Hillary.... I'm sure this is a sign of something...
Maybe he's using "castato" as a sort of "high brow" term to differentiate himself from the more plebian "pansy", the rest of the pack uses. At any rate, what a waste of airspace. Aren't there more important issues to discuss? Like the destruction of America, under BushCo.
Democratic Hillary haters are fooling themselves if they think the reich wing will be anymore easy going after ANY Democratic candidate.
He probably had a domineering mother.....kinda reminds me of a momma's boy. He does owe Hillary an apology.
Phlogiston @ 8:
I too would like to see his face. He is not the only one bashing Hillary Clinton. Wolf Blitzer is not far behind him, but make no mistakes, no one beats him. What is funny is watching his guest faces. They sometime look as though they have rehearsed the "beat up on Clintons" segment of his show. There is not opposing opinions in his show anymore and he flat out says "I like it when my guest agree with me."
Will Nothing Be Said
MSNBC has gotten away with spending 90% of their news shows bashing Hillary Clinton. I say this as a Biden supporter. I just don't think it is somehow alright for this kind of bias to influence our political process.
We are in the process of picking the most important position in our government. MSNBC along with CNN and Fox have taken it upon themselves to destroy the Democratic front runner. This kind of influence in uncounterable and unequal in our process for picking our president. This obsession with Clinton is wrong and they have gotten totally away with it.
I would give an arm to reflect this nasty everyday practice of conservative media to attack the Democratic's best. They must be made to know America is aware of what they are trying to do.
Joseph
Matthews was an asshole yesterday; he is an asshole today, and he will be an asshole tomorrow! Nuf said!
matthews is a scumbag (forgive me muse of insults), always has been one too
Why worry about a few castratos when you've got a dildo like Matthews around to take uo the slack?
lighten up everyone. casgtratos is funny. he is no saying she is a butch, rug munching dike, or anything.
FRED THOMPSON is the best person to lead this country. He is a true conservative and has been his entire life. All one has to do is check his record to see this.
During my time in the Army as an Intelligence Analyst, I served under both Presidents Carter and Reagan (as my commanders in chief). Without argument, President Reagan was the best commander-in-chief a military person could ever have served under. Fred Thompson possesses the same qualities and vision as President Reagan in that he is strong on national defense and sees a dire need to secure our borders and control immigration.
I can think of no better person to lead this country and fix the problems we have. He is the only candidate from either party who has specific and detailed plans on border security and immigration reform; revitalization of America's armed forces; saving and protecting Social Security; and tax relief and economic growth. These are detailed on his Web site at www.fred08.com. I challenge you to find any other candidate who has laid out specific plans to fix anything.
Fred Thompson has published his first principles, some of which are mentioned above. In addition to those, he strongly believes in individual liberty, personal responsibility, limited government, federalism, traditional American values, the rule of law and is a strong proponent of the Second Amendment -- all concepts established during the birth of our country and documented in our Constitution.
Again, try to find any candidate who has laid out their plans to "fix" this country. You will find they all speak in vague and abstract terms on their plans.
For those who have heard Fred Thompson speak, you will usually hear him say that the Fred Thompson you see today is the same Fred Thompson you saw yesterday and is the same Fred Thompson you will see tomorrow. He stands by his principles and values and doesn't shift his positions based on polls or public opinion; in other words, he doesn't say what the voters want to hear just to get elected, but remains steadfast on his views and convictions.
During his time in the Senate he focused on three areas: to lower taxes, strengthen national security and expose waste in the federal government. Fred Thompson has foreign policy experience, having served as member of the Senate Foreign Relations and Senate Intelligence committees.
As chairman of the Senate Governmental Affairs Committee, he opened the investigation in 1997 on the Chinese government's attempt to influence American policies and elections, and this investigation identified connections with the Clinton administration (documented in the committee's report).
As a member of the Finance Committee, he worked tirelessly to enact three major tax-cut bills. Fred Thompson remains steadfast and even though a person may not agree with all his views and he understands some may disagree with him, you can count on him to be consistent and unwavering.
Don't be fooled by his laid back approach and what critics call his "laziness." As a former assistant U.S. attorney, he earned a reputation as a tough prosecutor and he possesses the toughness this country needs in order to tackle today's and tomorrow's issues.
I ask that you take a hard look at what this country needs, then take a hard look at all the other candidates' views, policies, their records and their track record on consistency. Fred Thompson possesses integrity, loyalty, commitment, energy and decisiveness, all traits of an effective leader, and will emerge as the best person to take this country boldly forward.
Fred Thompson sucks
The problem for Matthew's and Fox is they just don't get where the Clinton's strength or appeal comes from.
It is a deceptively beautiful formula.
The Clintons are enlarged by the puniness of their enemies.
Their strength comes directly from haters and detractors.
The more Matthews drools and spits the higher Hillary's poll numbers will go.
Because in the end the public looks up and says who are the real monsters here.
Checkmate everytime.
Mathews *hearts* Hillary. That is the only excuse I can use. The media has already labelled her the frontrunner. Amazing. The woman brings NOTHING that would make anyone want to vote for her, besides being one of those "save us from the evil ReTHUGS" Dems. She's spent her lilfe in corruption that never seems to stick to her or her hubbies teflon coating.
OMG by courtesy of your postings at crooksandiars, I discovered I been living a lie.
I thought "Castratos" was another slam against liberals using association with Fidel from "Ku-Bah"..
Who knew it was something related to Contraltos and Mezzo Sopranos.
(somebody call tony)
Fred Paxson @ 69:
If on the rare possibility that this is not satire, let us examine why Thompson should not, like the rest of the Republicans, be taken seriously. As with your hero Ronald Reagan, Thompson believes in lowering taxes. But looking at the link that you provided, one looks in vain for Thompson's plan to tax big corporations. It probably should come as no surprise that taxing big business is not part of Thompson's grand scheme of getting the country on the right track, unless that track includes keeping the corporations rolling in profit.
His health insurance plan keeps the insurance companies in the equation, which means that Thompson is intent upon keeping profit above the interests of the people, while neglecting any mention of a universal health care plan that would, like every other advance country in the world, cover every person's basic and catastrophic health care need.
I looked high and low butcould find no mention on Thompson's site devoted to the environment. Regarding national security, Thompson, like the rest of the Republicans, engages in fear mongering by inferring that the terrorists are somehow about to invade the shores of the United States. Thompson believes the U.S. should stay the course in Iraq, despite the fact that those fearsome terrorists make up only 2 per cent of the forces that are aligned against the U.S. military. Thompson, like Reagan, is an advocate of a missile defense system which would cost many billions of dollars and which would do nothing in terms of protecting America against those scruffy band of terrorists. More money wasted on excess defense than on items that could be better spent here such as schools, hospitals, libraries, health care, etc.
I also checked quite carefully on Fred's web site to find just a summary of his military record. But like his chickenhawk colleagues, apparently Fred managed to mysteriously avoid something called the Vietnam War, even though, like Romney and Guilliani and the rest, he was certainly of draft age to have fought in that conflict. How come this patriotic American did not volunteer for Vietnam? Like so many other advocates of militarism, Thompson adage apparently consists of do as I say, not as I do.
chrissir's man-crush on bill makes him livid when hillary is the topic. I bet chrissie want very badly to sniff the cologne and find out for himself if bill smells better than willard. chrissie really ought to just hang a picture of the clenis up as his backdrop and end the suspense.
JUST COME OUT OF THE CLOSET, CHRISSIE! FOR GOD'S SAKE.

Ha! Loved this post!
I can't stand watching that dickhead any more. He has not treated the Clinton campaign in an even-handed way since he decided his MANLY MAN FOR PRESIDENT was going to be that idiot Rudy Guilty-iani, the "nation's mayor." More like "the nation's 911-SNAKE-OIL-911-SALESMAN-911." Jeesh... what a couple of losers!
Chris is right, and anyone who thinks this comment is sexist doesn't understand the point he's making. He is not saying they are eunuchs because they are speaking out for Hillary. They are eunuchs, in Chris' mind, because they are willing to dishonestly go after Obama by implying that he is a Muslim. That is what Bob Kerry appears to be doing, and it's sickening. In Chris' mind no morals equate no balls. It's a crude way of saying it, but he's got a point.
He's a Fag!!
terry740 @ 28:
That ain't no little dick. Ann has a full 10 inches and loves to ride tweety like the little b*tch he is.
The reason hairball is so anti-Hillary is because tweety took a stance against the Clinton's a long time ago, and they will never forgive him. So he figures he can shame them into paying attention to him if he insults them enough. Nobody ever accused Mathews of being too bright or progressive with regards to women. He's about as lecherous as BlathO.
This is absolutely true, which is all the more reason not to hand them such an easy target as Hillary. Seriously, it's fish in a barrel. She's not her husband. People like her husband. People are lukewarm at best over Hillary. That's a critical difference.
My hope for this election is that nobody named Bush or Clinton is our next president. So already we're off to a good start unless Bush declares martial law. Well, that seems far-fetched - I suppose. Then again, who knows anymore?
Ha! Castratos in the eunich chorus. Matthews is totally right on here. So great.
This is the strangest thread. Of course, Chris has always hated the Clintons and Hillary especially. But certainly not as much as Maureen Dowd always has (and check her latest column). And Paul Krugman has been going after everything Obama lately. Meanwhile, conservative columnists have been gushing over Obama like he's the 2nd coming: Andrew Sullivan in the Atlantic Monthly and David Brooks in the New York Times this week. But the point is that Chris happens to be right (although his wording is unacceptably sexist). Hillary had otherwise respectable and credible politicians humiliating themselves repeatedly over the past few weeks. Her campaign's public meltdown is doing irreparable damage to the Democrats and future women candidates. She needs to bow out and do a Teddy Kennedy in the Senate the next couple decade. There are plenty of Democrats in the field who would make better presidents, would bring something needed for our times, and are more electable as well. What does Hillary bring? Even her staff can't answer that (remember when Teddy was asked why he was running?). By becoming a charicature of what Hillary haters believe, she is feeding the sexist stereotype and validating it. How sad!
You know, upon consideration, the one statement in this piece that I think is completely wrong is that the Clinton camp feels that Obama is the long-term threat. I think they know that Edwards is so they've tried to marginalize him by picking fights with Obama, who is actually the weaker opponenent.
sowa @ 82:
It's called politics. Trying to imply that tweety has any concept of morals is really pushing it. Hillary is a vicious vituperative political hack who would be nearly as bad for this country as any repug running. See, it's possible to describe her back stabbing, underhanded, morally corrupt maneuvering without insulting her sex.
Mistress will be very pleased with Tweety tonight.
Matthews is a fucking idiot. even if all he does is read from the teleprompter. he should at least have a clue if it's true or not.
Who's dick did he suck to get where he is?
I don't know why anyone would be surprised of what this bastard would do, or who his loyalties are with.
He knows Progressive Americans, can't stand his lying corrupt ass, so why would he support a democratic candidate?
This is a message to Senator Reid, to get this bastard out of the Democratic Caucus Strategy Sessions. It is not good for the health of Democrats.
Chris Matthews - whining like a jealous diva.
Not being a doctor, I can't be specific. But I can say there is something wrong with Tweety. He looks bad, has a terrible temper, doesn't let his guests talk, etc. In fact I consider him to be MSNBC and NBC's biggest mistake.
GOOD!!! lets get everyone attacking hillary on both sides... Hillary Clinton: the ONLY democratic(?) candidate that will lose the general election. VOTE PROGRESSIVE OR GREEN ... ITS THE ONLY WAY TO SAVE THIS COUNTRY FROM FASCISM!!!
chris soft balls=woman hater=angry white man with tiny penis=impotent raging alcoholic
=one of america's most important political commentators
What's the fuzz about?
Full disclosure: I'm male. I'm rooting for Hillary. I don't like Matthews. But I think this is totally harmless. He even has a point here. I actually smiled.
(And her obvious ability to scare men like Matthews is part of her appeal. To me, at least. I mean, she will have to castrate a great many men in Washington to be effective. And I think, she will.)
Tweety's continued presence on MSNBC: GE bringing more good things to light.
THE NEW AXIS OF EVIL IS: MATTHEWS, WILLIAMS, AND RUSSERT ........
lokey @ 95:
I know you're kidding right?
Voting for any Dem who gets the nomination; ANY dem is better than any republican.
PERIOD.
Smarmy @ 94:
No, tucker carlson is, tweety's #2
lokey @ 95:
Very well said. The Democrats' refusal to defund the occupation in Iraq goes a long way in demonstrating that there is very little difference between the two corporate war making parties that rule over this country.
LOL! Well... he started to have a point briefly when he mentioned that some of the lines that these endorsers are fed by the Clinton campaign are a bit over the top. Then, of course, he had to meander into calling people dick-less, and admitting on air that he was simply trying to manufacture outrage where there existed none.
Back to the non-crazy point, I do wonder if some of these Clinton "endorsements" aren't hurting the "endorsers" a bit unfairly. I'm getting the picture of the Clinton campaign as a fraternity (no, not sorority) during rush week. Not good. "Here: one condom, one goat. Now just how bad do you want to be part of our club?"
I'm just really too damn tired of that kind of politics, and I don't see it from either Obama or Edwards (or Dodd, for that matter).
I think his problem is with the left-leaning women. He kisses Coulter's ass, he has the dingbat Melanie Morgan on his show regularly. I stopped watching him because of the way he beats up on Hilary and Nancy Pelosi.
Why don't all these guys just admit their homo-erotic fantasies and have a real clusterf---, instead of subjecting the rest of us to the horrors they create to convince themselves that they are 'real men?'
Smarmy @ 94:
BINGO , the boy ain't wired right and besides his women hating rants , he smirks, looks off camera constantly at probable the director , which to me is he's either seeking approval or just doesn't give a damn about his audience .
right wing tool
It's fascinating to see Chris Matthews and Tucker Carlson so angry about Kerrey's comments, because as far as I can tell, Chris Matthews was the very first person to introduce Barack Obama's middle name into the national political discussion -- and Tucker Carlson was right behind him.
This is a quote from www.mediamatters.org about Chris Matthews and Tucker Carlson and why they are trashing Hillary and others, very interesting and well worth the read... Look it up...
