Alert: Tweety is amped today

He was on Alex Wagner's show, and he was more agitated than usual! A righteous rant on the duty of every citizen to vote wound it up. No one could control him. A wild man!

Can't wait to see him later -- he is suffering NO foolishness. I hope he took an aspirin today.

I bet the spittle is flying!
I like Matthews, I think he's a smart and decent person, but I can't watch his show.
His interview style just grates on me.
He does have good POV's though that are usually similar to my own though.

the ONLY member of the MSNBC lineup to DIRECTLY confront RNC Chair, Reince Prebius

on the air for his party's racism -- He practically got kicked off Morning Joe for it.

He's not perfect, but IMO, he's pretty damned good.

I think today and this evening he will not stop and whatever his
"final say" is at the end of the day will be scorching towards
those who have interfered with our voting rights and those
who are standing in the way of our democracy working for all
of us..

Maybe from middle of the road mushiness to this. I am liking the passion. He freaked during the first debate because he wants Obama to win so badly. I think he has seen the obstructionism and racism and disgusting actions of the Repubs and it did not sit well with him.
