Someone PLEASE tell Tweety that Bush does NOT RIDE A HORSE
and he is NOT A COWBOY. The twit is AFRAID of horses, lives at a fake ranch and is more accustomed to golf communities than he is woodchopping.

Unbelievable how SNOWED Matthews is by Bush's fake cowboy schtick.

2. Matthews is awestruck by power.
That's precisely the sort of man who should not be in the media. And yet these days, that's a quality that will take you straight to the top.

Interesting, isn't it?

13. Very insightful comment
That's a big part of it! He's like those kiss asses I always hated back when I worked in the corporate world. Bush has never done anything to earn my respect...all they worship is power and they want access to that power.

It keeps them the summer house in Cape Cod and the kids in the ivy league and OUT of Iraq. This has been a big bitch of mine..Matthews kids or any of these media types kids are in no danger of ever suffering. It's just a story to them. They don't really get the power of their WORDS to shape it. And yes, I know he was against the war in Iraq-but he he did some of the vilest shows against Kerry I ever saw. I will never watch his lazy hypocritical ass again.

But I appreciated your comment!

4. Corporate Media is pushing hard to keep **** in a good light since
the SS thing is going badly along with JimJeff and now the pot smoking tapes. The corporate media cartel has its marching orders.

6. A little "Daily Howler" for you...
http://www.dailyhowler.com/dh050303.shtml

LET’S PLAY AIRBALL! Bush looked manly in his flight suit. And Chris Matthews knew he should notice:

SATURDAY, MAY 3, 2003

SUPER-DUB’S DEBUT: Was that President Bush—or Super Dave Osborne—who addressed us from the Abraham Lincoln Thursday night? Bush’s Knievel-style clowning was a sight to behold. But cable pundits knew how to act. On Hardball, they indulged in a bit of deep clowning themselves, helping us see the deep dysfunction of what some still pretend is our “press corps.”

A bit of background: As you know, Chris Matthews opposed the war in Iraq. For the first time in the past six years, he actually said what he thought about something, and it cost him dearly with cable’s core audience. For that reason, the tough-talking pundit is pandering hard to get back in this cohort’s good graces. That explains the consummate foolishness displayed on his program Thursday night. We never thought we’d see the day when Ann Coulter could come off as the sane one in a group of three pundits. But given Thursday’s performances by Matthews and “Hardball Democrat” Pat Caddell, we’ve now seen the miraculous happen.

As you read this Hardball transcript, note the astounding immaturity of Matthews and Caddell, who might as well just go on TV and play with their G. I. Joe toys. We’ve now reached the point where our millionaire pundits will spend entire segments on national TV discussing which candidate looks good in a flight suit. And don’t fail to notice the slimy behavior when Hillary Clinton becomes the topic. A sad-but-true fact emerged long ago; Chris Matthews, at heart, is a thigh-rubbing man. When will Americans tell this strange man that he simply must stop discussing our female public figures in this slimy manner?

Two final points. First, we know who won’t tell Matthews to stop. E. J. Dionne won’t tell him to stop. Al Hunt won’t tell him. Mark Shields won’t tell him. Peter Beinart won’t tell him. Jeff Greenfield won’t tell him. Matthews has degraded our discourse for years; he lied and slandered all through Campaign 2000, for example. There isn’t a chance on the face of the earth that his colleagues in the press corps don’t know this. But have you ever seen a negative profile, anywhere in the mainstream press? The store-bought butt-boys who make up our “press corps” would rather eat live worms in hell than speak truth to power within their own cohort. They are extremely well paid—and plan to keep it that way. For example, how is it possible that the New Republic has never reviewed Matthews’ ludicrous work? You know the answer as well as we do. The Beinarts will give you good policy work—and they’ll angle for powerful jobs in the future. You will never read critiques of the “press corps” inside TNR’s store-bought pages.

7. He was making a not so nice comparison between the
suave French guy and our president - who swaggers in like he is ON a horse and wears COWBOY BOOTS while doing his "presidential duties". It made me think about what an IDIOT * looks like.

8. I LIKE Chris
Anyone who can get Michelle Milken to admit she thinks everyone should question whether or not John Kerry shot himself in the leg in Vietnam is right on in my book. And then he laughed at her face when she barked back, "Don't you? (think that maybe he shot himself) and said, "NO, it never occurred to me"

Better yet he got Jerry Falwell to say that he was born a heterosexual yet CHOSE to be a heterosexual almost in the same sentence.

He is at least a very talented man.

9. There's no denying he's had some moments where he showed real talent
and independence. The problem is that too often he doesn't and promotes images of others, especially Bush, that have no basis in reality.

12. The reason Bush* is afraid of horses...
In his late twenties, George Bush decides to go horseback riding. Although he has had no previous experience he skillfully mounts the horse and appears in complete command of the situation as the horse gallops along at a steady pace.

After a short time George becomes casual and he tries some rodeo moves he had seen on TV. He quickly loses his grip on the saddle, panics, and grabs the horse around the neck shouting for it to stop. George has by this time slipped completely out of the saddle and is only saved from hitting the ground by the fact that he still has a grip on the horses neck.

George decides that his best chance is to leap away from the horse, but as his foot has become entangled in one of the stirrups his head is banging on the ground as the horse gallops along.

George is now frantic, and fearing for for his life, he starts screaming "help!!!!"

Hearing his screams, the K-Mart manager casually walks out of the store and unplugs the horse.

18. Yes. Putin expected to ride horses the first time he went to the ranch
and he was told Bush doesn't go near horses.
