1. I've lost interest in his various 'obsessions,' and no longer watch.
He's not reliable or stable, imo.

2. I regularly mangle and mispronounce names of people I don't like---on purpose
Like, Michelle Back-man, or Rush Limbo.

I'd prefer it if he never brought any of them up again.

6. "It's Cheenie. The actual pronunciation is Cheenie". lol
He's been doing that for weeks, maybe months? I don't think he cares for "Cheenie" and gets some sort of satisfaction in this

11. He's been doing it for years, I haven't seen his show for
well over a year and he drove me nuts with that back then.

7. Tweety serves the ruling elite by keeping us "chattering classes" distracted and/or
at each other's throats. I respect Pat Buchanan more than Chris Mathews because YOU KNOW what Pat B's about. You see the knives coming.

13. Cheenee Tried To Get Him Muzzled
Anyone remember the Valerie Plame case? What prompted Scooter to call Timmeh? It was a Tweety outburst and pressure was put on Matthew's boss to "reign him in". Tweety even had to testify in the case. Methinks he's never forgiven Cheenee for dragging him into that mess.

14. One of Matthews' heroes is LBJ, who was notorious for mangling the names of his enemies

15. Because he thinks he's the only one who knows about it. What he
doesn't seem to grasp is the rest of the world doesn't give a shit.

his throat every time he explains it, it's not the Cheenie (?or whatever) pronunciation that drives me insane it's his continual EXPLANATION for doing it!!!!!!!!!! :argh: :grr: :banghead:

19. Tweety thinks he's a wizard. I'm just grateful if he doesn't drool.

20. I can take tweety or I can leave tweety
sometimes he simply has to fill his time and he does it the only way he knows how.

22. It gives him a tingle in leg when he says it that way??
One of his guests made a comment about Matthews getting a tingle in his leg, and Matthews was really pissed. I got a laugh out of it.

23. Because Tweety is an Obsessive Compulsive who can't stop himself.

He gets on something like that and has to use it every friggin time he's on the tube. Either that on the early onset of senility.
