WTF.. "Lookin' all "too cool" with the shades & walkin' to the plane..all full of himself"
Edited on Fri Sep-26-08 06:23 PM by SoCalDem
so sayeth Matthews, as they look at Obama carrying his own garment bag, and wearing sunglasses..and walking....yes..how DARE he!...just walking..all cool & full of himself..

Something tells me that most of these teevee-hosts & pundits must have spent a lot of time in school inside lockers & drying off after swirleys...

When did carrying your own bags & wearing sunglasses turn into a bad thing.. and carrying yourself gracefully is now a minus??

Did they expect him to be slouching, shuffling along, & picking his nose, as he squinted into the sun??

34. Be still, my heart
Not to agree with Tweety, but that ain't your everyday Joe carrying his stuff to the plane. :)

45. Ok! When was the last time Tweety carried his bag? Or McCain?
Or Bush? Or Palin? The man is humble and the length that these neocons go to in projecting their pathetic views on him. Chris Matthews is not my favorite--never has been. He does his best to sound like a Democrat--but beneath all of the spittle is a man longing to wear Bushes jock strap around his head. There seems no place in his world for an upstanding black man to exist. The balck man is either an "Al Sharpton" or an "Al Keyes"--can't get past those "A"s.

41. The man has it goin' on
Nothing wrong with that. Tweety is jealous. Young, handsome, sharp, on the rise. I love that picture. I've never particularly wanted a "cool" president, but I could get used to it.

13. Oh, how cool is "too cool'? Looks like Just Right Cool to me.
This is beginning to sound like the politics of Goldilocks....and Tweety is a blond, isn't he?

They don't recognize anyone that isn't in full blown sterotype mode... gawd I hate them!

I'm still reeling from McCain's drunken Irish joke. Idiots one and all.

8. That's when I switched to Ellen
Andrea Mitchell chimed in at how he had to be warm or he wouldn't connect with the people.

You would think they would be embarrassed to run the same campaign lines, year after year after year.

10. It's why Limbaugh hates Clinton and Obama so much, and why he's now a cheap bully.
Rush is an uneducated coward, and (not very) deep down, knows it. He has never recovered from being picked on in junior high school, I am sure, and seethes with irrational rage at the "cool guys."

12. Smart is the new dumb
Bizarro World is the new Reality

Stupid Things I Do is the new You Are So Stupid For Doing That

Yeah, quit trying to make what "they" say fit into the real world. It's not healthy. It will only cause you mental anguish.

that cool, even before they became fat, bald, jello talking heads.

18. Chris Matthews' inner NERD resents the "too cool for school" guy.
Chris Matthews is dating himself with that stupid comment, and showing that he's NOT too cool for school, and never has been.

You almost never hear a white man described that way (i.e. "cool"). Closet bigtry on Matthew's part

42. Absolutely bigotry.
Thanks for nailing it.
It is unforgivable, but will appease
those who would like to be able to
own slaves again.
Keep those dark people in their place, eh Chris?
Lord, we are a pathetic nation of cretins.

27. Tweetie is always baiting Obama to get angry and emotional..
he can't bear the fact that Obama is always controlled. I guess he can't relate.

Edited on Fri Sep-26-08 06:51 PM by BeHereNow
I'd say that was the subtext of his "reporting."

How do these people get on the airwaves?

If it weren't for the Kabuki entertainment
on C-span, I'd throw my television away.
