Chris Matthews was invited to go on the Ellen Degeneres Show and like other guests, encouraged to dance with Ellen into their segment. Tweety was game but the producers may want to reconsider this choice unless Ellen want to be pawed and dropped by their fatally unfunky guests.

Ellen was a good sport about it.Chris on the other hand was a clumsy fool.But at least he laughed at himself.

I wonder if Ellen asked him why he such a misogynist dufus whenever he talks about Hillary Clinton.

I just couldn't get through all the phony ass kissing.

C-"I love you Ellen,you're the best".
E-"Well Chris I wish I could say the same about you,but truth be told you make me wanna puke".
C-"Why Ellen why??".
E-"Well Chris I guess because you're such a transparently partisan and misogynistic asshole".

How does somebody as obviously talented as Mathews, not have his own television show? Hahahahahaha.....every time he is on somebody else's show, he makes a bigger idiot of himself. Is he after some kind of Guinness World Record?

People that go into the national spotlight and make themselves look idiotic, deserve the ridicule they receive.

Ellen may be a lesbian but Mathyus really enjoyed groping her.

Here's a better clip for today. In honor of the great actor Paul Scofield who has died, an excerpt from "A Man For All Seasons" wherein Scofield as Sir Thomas More defends the law even for the devil, because if you strike down all laws to catch the devil, you have nothing to protect you when the devil turns on you. Dick Cheney probably hates this movie.

Sorry "is" is correct the subject is the singular act of posting.

"posting," the gerund, is the subject. I knew that 8th grade English class would be valuable some day. I concur with the re-correction, and the sentiments of the original poster - although, it is good to have comic relief.

Chris, you're a loser.

VitriolAndAngst's picture

There is something seriously wrong with Chris Mathews. He goes all bonkers around women who aren't attracted to him. And he becomes totally in awe of any man who can get laid or has power. Seriously, beyond just the antics, and the awkwardness, there is a sort of "Dead Granny who talks to me, Norman Bates" kind of groove going on with this dude.

CheneyEx-Aide 'Scooter' Libby Disbarred

Vice President's Former Chief of Staff Convicted of Lying to Investigators in Plame Case

By Carol D. Leonnig
Washington Post Staff Writer
Thursday, March 20, 2008; 11:59 AM

Vice President Cheney's former chief of staff, I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby, was disbarred today by a District of Columbia court that ruled that his convictions last year for perjury and obstructing justice in a White House leak investigation disqualify him from practicing law.
......snip ....

Libby's disbarment is effective as of June 12, 2007, when he first filed a declaration saying he would voluntarily comply with the court's rules on professional ethics for lawyers. Libby, 57, could seek reinstatement to the bar five years from that date, in June 2012.

Last July, a federal judge sentenced Libby to 30 months in jail. President Bush commuted the sentence, calling it "excessive."

Almost too painful to watch. Geez, what a dufus!

Everyone here seems to dislike Matthews so much, but I actually like him. I thought this bit was pretty funny

Bananaphone's picture

I could almost see what was going on in his head....

"Crap! Missed and got her neck! Catch her!"
"AAAAAAA! I just grabbed her breast! Stop!"
"SHIT, I dropped her!"

All part of the recreational hazards of White Boy Swing...

erick's picture

they're both a couple of idiots that should be shoved in Iraq and taping their fucking shows from there, see how much dancin they'll do then how bout speaking the fucking truth?

tanglewood's picture

Matthews is a publicity whore--it is ALL about him. This is a guy who admits to "googling" himself every morning. He said it on Imus one morning. I have always said that he is very, very insecure and this is exhibit A.

I've heard from friends of his that he is planning on running for Spector's seat in PA '10 when it is up. Someone else told me that he keeps referencing his roots and ties to Pennsylvania every chance he gets when he is in front of a camera. Well, if he runs, he won't be on MSNBC anymore and if he loses that race (which I am sure he will) he'll become Pennsylvania's problem.

I kind of pity him at this point. For a 62 or 63 year old man to act like he does it is really very sad.

odanny's picture

Ellen and her "dancing" bit is gay. No that there is a anything wrong with that. Or maybe there is, maybe its just stupid as her crying about some fucking pooch that was kidnapped.

Remind me again why I dont care about Ellen or Matthews?

Oh yea, neither are very interesting, just a point or two above Brittney's legal drama or Paris heading off to jail again

Emma Hussein Goldman's picture

Well, it was better than hearing Tweety kiss Tom DeLay's ass.

Howard's picture

First, I would never go on any talk show where I have to be a "Dancing Monkey" before I can talk with the host.

Second, Chris Matthews should know NEVER, NEVER, NEVER try to hand dance with a Lesbian.

Karike's picture

This was an attack, not a dance.

treestump's picture

#44 "tanglewood" hit the nail about Matthews's insecurity. ALSO consider his actions as an expression of anger and being uncomfortable with being out of control of his situation. He needed to take back the control, psychologically, so he used his superior physical power to stop the action and impose his dominance - under the guise of it being "just funnin' around".

There's nothing wrong with dancing by lesbians or anybody else. It takes a healthy degree of self-confidence to dance comfortably in public - and to do it comfortably on-stage, I would imagine, takes more. I wish I had that kind of confidence.

What a douche bag.

GRACELESS UNDER PRESSURE. ooooh god that was painful; but on the upside..my oldest kittycat was finally able to vomit up a hairball...and all it took was making her watch 15 seconds of that video. thanks ellen

treestump's picture

This is both interesting and funny! Ellen 'deconstructs' Matthews dance-crime!

treestump's picture

Well, I screwed up the link. Go to Huffington and find it yourself. Sorry.

Rabbit's picture

Look, I despise Tweety and his man-crushes as much as the next thinking American, but this was clumsiness and nothing more. He's not supposed to be a dancer, he's supposed to be a pundit. Talk about his failures there.

Kahoneez's picture

Mathews is to dancing , what a hammer is to slicing tomato and he showed more than bad dancing , some real pseudo tough guy attitude . Did he have to man handle her , because he thought she was going to lead or what ?

knifewrench's picture

He did the same thing when he was on Colbert's show...

Topper's picture

Hilarious, but disturbing clip. Ellen doesn't even really trip. It looks like as soon as Chris takes her back, Ellen looks uncomfortable, he grabs her chest, and that's when it looks like the onset of an 100 metre dash on her part.

D.G. Bowman's picture

Tweety is a truly creepy individual.

Billy Ogawa's picture

Eh. Sometimes I like Matthews, sometimes I don't like Matthews. This is one of the times where I liked Matthews.

He was doing pretty well at first, but then it turned into a chokehold and a shove!

He danced better than I could in front of a studio audience.

Mr Squirrel's picture

Bah. This one is a reach. Most folks look like fools when they're dancing, even if they're good at it. Chris Matthews is a tool, but this clip is no particular evidence of that. He held up better than half of us would, and even got to cop a feel from a famous lesbian in the process. Something to tell the grandchildren.

Sneer's picture

Matthews is an embarrassment to watch. Enough with this tripe.

jack damage's picture

Nicole;

Yea... I know who Ellens g-friend is... That blonde cutie from Ally McBeal... And all I'm sayin is that doesn't preclude her from up and kicking tweety's ass for pawin her girlfriend... Frankly, I don't know you at all Nicole, but I'd be willing to wager you could probably kick tweetys ass if you were so inclined. He's an overinflated old fart. he looks like the kind where its one well placed punch and he's down and done.. Also though I got no way of knowin in this specific case, but I'd venture to say generically, that just because one may look like a lipstick lesbian, doesn't mean they ain't butch. I know a few butch's that look pretty hot. Don't mean they won't bitchslap the piss out of me if I crossed the line and I'm their friend.... Look Nicole, this is a pretty frivoulous thread and I ain't looking for trouble with you. I actually like what you are about as far as I can see on this site. I think you do good posts and are well spoken, I was just being a bit snarky at Matthews expense. Not like he doesn't deserve it. OK, I'm dun, Peace girl.................. JD
