Great Moments in Fringe Media.

Chris Matthews is an idiot:

//Earlier, the topic of discussion was the White House power structure of Reince Preibus and Trump son-in-law Jared Kushner when Matthews joked to co-host Rachel Maddow that “it’s hard to fire your son-in-law.”

Maddow responded “[t]hat’s why the nepotism laws are there,” but Matthews had other ideas that sent Maddow into a frenzy:

MATTHEWS: [B]ut Mussolini had a great solution to that. He had him executed. So, it’s —

MADDOW: Jesus, Chris!

MATTHEWS: So, if I were Jared, I’d be a little careful.

MADDOW: Well, all the people who are waiting for the reference to Mussolini have just started drinking.//

Chris Matthews...

... Bloated Bully.

But if Internet rumors are to be believed, perhaps a one Chris Matthews shares Mr. Gregory's impatience for sub-par service?

I trudged over to this thread because I have some Chris Matthews gossip.

I was dining at a pizzeria in Washington, DC.

Anyhoo, there was a backup in the kitchen and it was taking some time for everyone to get their pizza. My party waited about 25 minutes. I've been there many times before and this is very unusual for the place.

Chris Matthews and his wife are at the next table. He starts yelling at his waitress because the pizza is taking so long. And I'm not talking 'hey, where are the pizzas.' I mean, berating her. He even went so far as to call her a liar. Keep in mind this was after the poor girl, who was no more than 18 years old, told him she would box his pizzas and he could have them for free. Did he thank her for her offer? No. Instead he stands up and starts yelling and wildly gestulating. Over a frigging pizza.

He had to a foot taller than this girl, but he was in her face pointing and yelling like she was a guest on Hardball and she was embroiled in the lastest political scandal. He then stormed out, leaving his mortified wife to hash out the situation.

What an asshole. I, for one, won't be watching Hardball anymore. I watch it all the time and for the most part, I find his guest to be interesting. I actually like him when he tones down the interrupting and yelling.

But after last night, the sight of his mug makes me sick. The same goes for his wife, who's a local news anchor. I never would have let my husband treat a waitress like that. Well, OK, I don't have one, but if I did! You get my point.

Oh yeah, and Matthews, if you read this board? (1) We waited for our food, too and (2) Pick your goddamn battles, you bloated bully. [TWOP]

Watching his unprofessional treatment of Republican guests on his show, this is not surprising.

I would like to apologize, on behalf of all white people that are not Chris Matthews, to all white people. I'm sorry he's such an asshole

Asking the important, and yet strangely self-evident, questions...

...the New York Post wants to know if Is there a smaller, more unprincipled man in the national political debate than Chris Matthews of MSNBC?

Liberals hate America.

Chris Matthews is happy that the East Coast was devastated and people were killed by Superstorm Sandy because it let Obama win the election.

Nice to see that he has his priorities in order.

Great Moments in Public Discourse.

MSNBC acknowledges that Chris Matthews is an unhinged jerk but won't apologize.

This kind of lunacy is a staple of MSNBC. There is no such thing as legitimate policy disagreement; those who don’t toe the far-left line are “pigs.” At MSNBC, smear and invective have replaced argument, not to mention straight news reporting.

MICHAEL OPPENHEIMER, PRINCETON UNIVERSITY: Listen, Chris, I’m not into name-calling here.

MATTHEWS: Well, I am.

OPPENHEIMER: Fine, that’s your job, not mine.

MATTHEWS: Alright.

And here, if you find that exchange hard to believe, is the video:

Chris Matthews says that challenging Obama is unconstitutional.

Remember when dissent was patriotic?

Now, not only is dissent not patriotic, but not quietly accepting the Lightbringer's every statement with the tranquility that a commoner owes is "unconstitutional."

Check it out:



What a moron.

But this is a clip worth keeping for use during the Romney administration.

Schadenfreude Alert!

An apt description of Chris Matthews after the Obama debate meltdown as a "vast pool of lard":

Matthews, who has the loudest mouth on cable TV and thrives in a state of 24/7 hysteria, was rendered into a vast pool of lard. He was typical for the night. He was so overwrought, you might have thought the creepy-crawly he usually feels on his leg when he hears Mr. Obama speak had crawled into his underwear. He offered to tutor the president for the next two debates.

"[T]here is a silent majority looking at this festival of the bizarre in Charlotte in absolute revulsion."

I am now handing the witness Exhibit...what are we up to?....WWWWW?... Ok, I'm now handing the witness Exhibit WWWWW...

Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus, Chris Matthews is insane.



It sort of gives you an unsettling glimpse of Chris Matthews homoerotic fascination with "alpha dog" liberal politicians.

Chris Matthews needs an intervention:

MSNBC host Chris Matthews got into a heated exchange with Republican delegates at a Tampa restaurant early Friday morning following the conclusion of the GOP national convention.

Matthews was booed and sworn at as he was leaving the Tinatapas restaurant, which is near the Tampa Bay Times Forum. Matthews turned back and confronted the taunting GOP officials. The Hill witnessed the exchange and interviewed Republican delegates after the confrontation.

Matthews told The Hill in a phone interview that after he left the restaurant, he heard a group of guys “heckling” and “hooting and hollering” at him.

He headed back into the restaurant to mix it up with them. “I wanted to confront them,” Matthews said, describing his exchange with the men as “towel-snapping” among guys.

Matthews said he told the rowdy group, “What’s this, a douchebag convention?”

The Republicans became angry and retorted back.

“I told him that’s next week,” said New York delegate Anthony Nunziato, referring to the Democratic convention in Charlotte, N.C., that will start on Tuesday.

Nemesis Alert.

Chris Matthews bombs on Jeopardy, after repeatedly mocking Palin about how she would do.
