God Damn it Tweety let your guests answer the question!

Normally I don't have the TV on for Chris' show but I have it on today
(background noise) and I swear to dog Matthews is ADD with impulse
control issues. Hey Chris when you ask a question let the person answer
the question.

that and the fact his voice is like fngernails on a blackboard.
Occasionally he has good moments, which are often posted here on DU
but certaily not worth the strain on my nerves to tune in hoping to catch one.

I'd like to replace him with Gilbert Godfreed ( spelling ? ) whose voice is more soothing .

I hate when Chris Matthews acts like Faux New's Bill O'Reilly. Someone should let him know he's doing this, he probably doesn't even realize it, but that's one of the reason I usually skip his show. My favorites are TRMS and The Last Word with Lawrence O'Donnell.

I'm not sure there are ANY pundits without a quirk or two.
