Like anything Mr. "tingle" says is newsworthy...

is phantom leg pain from when someone takes him down at the knees. 

I can't believe an ostensibly responsible journalist--yes, responsible: he worked for four members of Congress, including Sen. Muskie and Speaker O'Neill, and was as speech writer for Jimmah, loser of Iran. And yes, journalist: he was Washington correspondent for 13 years for the S.F Examiner.

He knows the drill better than most.

It takes us beyond credulity to hear him compare GWB with two psychopath sons of our enemy. Who would refer to a prominent political personality, oh, say, a speaker or western senator as Eva Braun? People would march in the streets, find them, and burn the hair off their bodies. 

Chris the Wide Mouth Frog has found himself in a pundit Ponzi scheme, overtrumping the last outrageous statement by former Best Coanchorf for Life Keith "I can see something outrageous from my bathtub" the Sports Boy in a never-ending, ever-expanding game of scurrilous smears. 

And, oh yes, the Left continues to lament the hateful speech of the Right. Hmmmmm. 

I'd bet that Chris Matthews, along with the entire left leaning side of the isle, would, without a doubt, consider that the US policy of extraordinary rendition was a process which absolutely invited and resulted in torture - and perhaps since the process resulted in captured terrorists being held by foreign forces in far-away lands, that interrogation proceedures such as waterboarding, would have been the least of their worries.

Clinton's former National Security Advisor told us in his book, "Against all Enemies," that back when he had presented the the case to President Clinton, VP Al Gore was more than supportive. President Clinton did in fact authorize the program, with the CIA informing us that about as many renditions were carried out during the Clinton/Gore term, as during the Bush/Cheney administration:

pages 143-4.

RICHARD CLARKE - Snatches, or more properly "extraordinary renditions," were operations to apprehend terrorists abroad, usually without the knowledge of and almost always without public acknowledgement of the host government. . . The first time I proposed a snatch, in 1993, the White House Counsel, Lloyd Cutler, demanded a meeting with the President to explain how it violated international law. Clinton had seemed to be siding with Cutler until Al Gore belatedly joined the meeting, having just flown overnight from South Africa. Clinton recapped the arguments on both sides for Gore: Lloyd says this. Dick says that. Gore laughed and said, "That's a no-brainer. Of course it's a violation of international law, that's why it's a covert action. The guy is a terrorist. Go grab his ass."

Or was it, 'go grab his ass, blindfold and gag him, and haul him away to some dark cave in Egypt someplace where we can get information out of him - but please make sure you don't hurt his sweet ass."

I have become so disgusted with the fringe media. I have decided to start a list of co-conspirators and enablers for the ONE's disintegration of the strengths and values that are the foundation of the American way of life.

                         THE STY OF USEFUL IDIOTS

Chris Mathews is the first to be enshrined.  I will tell as many of my friends and relatives to be alert, question anyone who repeats their lies, and email every one of them to call them out. NB has a forum to expose these idiots for me so I dont get my blood pressure up by witnessing their treason myself.  Saturday I am attending a tea party to protest Mary Landrieu's townhall. She may  be next on my list. I will be in the company of hundreds of like minded people and I will tell them all about NB.

"CHRIS MATTHEWS: Also you might think an endorsement from Dick Cheney would be like a dinner invite from Uday and Qusay Hussein"

It's just too bad you weren't one of their dinner guests.

I can't take it. I can't take it.

Just looking at that guy's wide open mouth gives me a cramp in my leg and a spasm in my whole body.

As he spits out the words from his huckster's mouth the tremors begin. No more, no more!

If Cheney is backing Kay Barely Republican, he deserves to be scorned. The fact that Matthews agrees with him speaks volumes.

Like the rest of the GOP elites, it appears Cheney is totally out of touch with a more conservative Republican base.

Gosh, your secession accusations are hurting Rick Perry so badly, I just don't know how he can get up in the mornings.

Must be tough, as Governor of the great State of Texas, to realize half his constituents are pulling for secession and the other half know he never said any such thing.

Matthews?  A kingmaker?  in TEXAS? 

Chris, you're less welcome here than Mrs O'leary's cow is in Chicago.

LYDSEXICS UNTIE!

disgraced Maddow (to name a few) dare to call Glenn Beck crazy!!!!  

Are you kidding me!      I feel like we're in the twilight zone!   

If matthews is for Hutchison, then Perry it is. 

As a Texan, I can say with all confidence that the endorsement of Palin far outweighs endorsements by Cheney and tingles.

Can't someone at MSNBC get Matthews some Testosterone injections........that pre-pubescent screech is like fingernails down a blackboard.

Wonder what he's going to be when he grows up.......

I'm a proud Texan, and while I can't speak for all Texans I can say that this Texan is getting a little tired of East Coast snobs (and West Coast snobs, too) looking down their noses at Texas.  I vividly remember how they tried very hard to make Texas a liability for GWB in the minds of voters in 2000 and, to a lesser degree, in 2004.  Frankly, they--Chris, Letterman, Pelosi, and their ilk--can shove it.  The fact that Matthews likes Cheney's endorsement of Hutchison seals it for me, I'm voting to re-elect Perry.
