You need help, Hairy. You are worse than the crowd at MSNBC.


Maybe you could filter him?

Or at least not quote him?

Thanks!

Obama sponsored legislation or senate achievements. The guy couldn't and
Matthews made mincemeat out of him.

He's got a mean streak. I saw what you mention - and a couple other
similar incidents. It would have done to just say "You can't. Let's
talk about something you might know about." I've seen him take that
gentler, but just as effective dismissive approach many times.
But when he's on the rag he enjoys humiliating people a bit too much.

Brokaw is a class act. Williams is trying, but hasn't established himself
yet.
Gregory is fine, except he talks too much IMO. Several times while giving
his commentary during the RNC, I found myself wishing he would shut up for a
moment so we could hear what the current speaker was saying.

Scarborough is a nut case. He too, is led by a massive ego, IMO. Betcha
he's next to go.

Did you see him tear into that Schuster kid a few days ago?
Ended up looking bad because Schuster gave him an easy out,
but he was either too pig-headed to take it, or too steamed to even
see it.

But the worst is (was) Olbermann. He is the poorest excuse for a journalist
on record, I think. 4 million a year for *that*!?

A real blue collar Democrat "working man" if I ever saw one.
Damn, I'm turning into a gossip.

Good plan for him. Never saw somebody go downhill so fast. Thought
his head would explode. Apparently it did.


Olberman is a twit.

Matthews is very knowledgeable, like a walking encyclopedia, and
creative in thought. Probably because he's half nuts.


Matthews says he gets a tingle in his leg when he hears Obama speak.

Brokaw is a gem. Gregory is very very good. Keeps an even keel in a
storm. Williams can be flaky.


Brokaw is ok.

Gregory is drunkard and a biased twit.

Williams is a twit.

I'll bet Scarborough feels pretty good about this after Uberhead, er,
Olbermann got on his case about telling the truth about some recent
polls.


Scarborough is just an arrogant SOB.

These are just my opinions, and I may be off-the-wall myself.

Somebody must have reminded Matthews that he was a journalist.

Except for Scarborough, I agree. Gregory is much worse than a drunkard and
biased twit, he wants the show to be about him.

I don't know if that arrogant Scarborough is an SOB though. I wish they'd
put him and Olbermann in the same room for a week.

I thought the video was a fake when I first saw it. I found it unbelievable
that Mathews would do that.

hmmm, not sure but it seems they must have gotten tired of Keith
acting like a whiny nrat. Kieth should have stuck to journalism and
left out all the drama.

He should have stuck to calling balls and strikes.
MSNBC pays this guy 4 million a year to give us his ultra biased news
reporting.

From what I've read, longtime and respected journalists Tom Brokaw and Brian
Williams were having difficulty continuing to support MSNBC and NBC because
of the antics of the biased ones, particularly Olbermann.

Olbermann's personal little emotional reaction to the 9/11 tribute at the
RNC is apparently the straw that broke the camel's back. * Thank goodness,

I hope so. I just can't really figure out why Matthews sold out, as to
Oberman and Gregory, I can't figure which one is more of a whiney
little bitch..

Well, turns out it's just another stunt by MSNBC.. Oberman and
Matthews will in fact be replaced by Gregory!!!! LOL, what a joke..
it won't work, they are and will remain dead last in the ratings,
until they "really" come out of the tank.. I suppose they will
eventually hire Helen to represent the right, so they can be fair and
balanced...
