No, Pollyanna was "pure and good". Hillary is something else entirely...

With Chris Matthews' brain farts and Olbermann's

fertilizer production it's a damn wonder NBC/MSNBC studios haven't ignited and exploded yet.

"Is she a natural target because she's so pure and good?"

Ummm...NO!  For a joke to be funny, there has to be at least an element of truth in it.  Hillary is a natural target because she is supposedly the "smartest woman in the world" yet she can't give a yes or no answer to a yes or no question.

She is a target because she is a huge phony, pandering to whichever audience she is addressing...southern accent anyone?

  She is a target because she has such a terrible memory.  Whenever she is deposed in any investigation she can't remember a d*mn thing except to say she can't remember. 

She is a target because she is so gullible: "Bill said he didn't have sex with that woman, and I believe him."

She is a target because the smartest woman in the world was completely fooled by that "idiot Chimpy McHitlerburton" about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.  And, that was after she received the same briefings as Bush and the rest of Congress and did her own research.

No, Chrissy, her Thighness is neither good nor pure. 

"A communist is someone who reads Marx.  An anti-communist is someone who understands Marx."  Ronald Reagan

I have to admit I did crack up laughing at some of this segment while working today....

You never know with msnbc or the whiz-bang Matthews.

Laughter is better than anger, that is for sure

I am having fun watching the twofers squirming and pointing fingers already...when it is them and their own mouths every time they open them that is making it so easy for us all in the real world.

Hope does spring eternal.

pure evil and a good liar.

By that logic, one would think Matthews would consider republicans/conservatives to be saints.

Still what kind of jokes are they?  Jokes regarding her temper or her bossiness or some other personal trait, not doubt.  But nothing that would call into question her political views, or that would point out some aspect of her lack of qualifications to be president.

Even if comedians told the same number of jokes about candidates regardless of Party, it's still the subject matter of the joke that would indicate any bias that might exist.  Anti-republican jokes are usually intented to perpetuate anti-republican stereotypes regarding policy, whereas jokes about Democrats rarely go beyond personality.

Matthews remains a high level Democrat operator, sure he is not longer the top advisor to Democrat Speaker of the House Tip O'Neill, or being the guy who wrote the speeches for Jimmy Carter, no no his offical capacity is to cloaking his life long ties with Democrats and spew out bias hidden in journalism.

These little ear worms are put out not for the people that follow the election stuff day in and day out.  Its put in as an answer for people who just skim the coverage.  So when Biff hear's the question on why Hillary is being hammered, he may (emphasis on may) think back to Hillary be so pure and good.

This is mass manipulation as a studied art.  When you have the speechwriter for Jimmy Carter going out daily to spin the viewers, its pretty dramatic stuff.

 You get to do things like start off with false conclusions, and then debate to what degree they are correct.  Then insert another false choice as the counter point.

 Stephanopolis owns ABC political coverage....worked for Hillary and Bill

 Matthews owns MSNBC...as above

Begualla and Carvell both own CNN

 Now you wonder why after Bill was first elected why the coverage on that VERY night shifted to if she was more qualified than him to be President.

If anyone thinks the aid to the Democrat Speaker of the House AND wordsmith for the Democrat President before that, is non biased, and is not actively working the airwaves I have land to sell.
