Watching Hardball tonight I was shocked to hear Chris Matthews describe Governor Ted Strickland as Anti-Abortion… “While the Governor’s message resonates with blue collar workers”, says Chris. “His anti-abortion stance - anti abortion-rights stance - could hurt him with women in the party” Here’s the video: Obviously this is a mistake on the part of the [...]

Chris Matthews likes Tom Ridge. Like, a lot. As in, really, really thinks he's great. At least, one can't help but draw that conclusion after witnessing the following exchange, which took place during yesterday's episode of Hardball. Emphasis mine; I dare you not to wince. CHRIS MATTHEWS: With just two weeks now until the Olympics begin,...

Barack Obama is still giving Chris Matthews thrills . On Thursday night's "Hardball," before throwing to an Obama clip, Matthews gave the following rave review, on his July 24 show, to the Illinois senator's speech in Germany: CHRIS MATTHEWS: What, what do you make of this? Let's take another bite here because it was quite a speech. You have to judge for yourself but the speech had its thrill factor,...

On the July 23 edition of MSNBC's Hardball , host Chris Matthews asserted that there are certain groups of Democrats "that have a problem ... supporting Barack Obama" and asked Kevin Madden, former spokesman for Mitt Romney's presidential campaign, "Aren't you working on those groups?" Madden responded by asserting that "McCain, whether he's talking about health care or whether he's talking about...

. T alk about a Friday dump. On Hardball this evening/afternoon, Chris Matthews elicited from Scott McClellan, former Bush White House press secretary, that yes, the Bush team did furnish talking points [also known as "scripts"?] to commentators at the Fox Network. Oh, but not the journalists, McClellan insisted, while adding that of course furnishing talking points to like-minded in the media was...

Naturally Chris Matthews tries to put his best spin on Obama's boring speech in Berlin yesterday: Frankly Disney is more of a comparison; however, I don't like the "Obambi" nickname, for it is an insult to the memory of the great children's author Felix Salten (real name: Siegmund Salzmann). Speaking of Bambi, I didn't know Whittaker Chambers actually did the translation of the 1923 novel from German...

Heather Wilson, who serves on the House Intelligence committee, abandoned any sense that she possessed intelligence on the Chris Matthews show last night, claiming that the relationship between the US and Europe has never been better than under George Bush. She should resign her Committee position for such partisan foolishness.

Barack Obama's speech at the Victory Column in Berlin has caused a collective Obasmic thrill to go up the legs of the KOmmies. As you will see they are now acting like a bunch of enthralled schoolgirls...or like Chris Matthews on Hardball. Although the Germans, who can't vote in our elections, were enthralled by Obama's appearance, the big news for Americans is that Obama thought it was "

Barack Obama, citizen of the world, speaking to the 58th state of Germany, declared his foreign policy credentials today to us all. Early polls say that Berlin will likely go Obama in November.

It’s not just the thrills racing up and down Chris Matthews’ leg. Writing in Thursday’s Investor’s Business Daily , author William Tate documents that campaign donations from employees of big media companies are tilting 100-to-1 in favor of the Democrats so far this election cycle. That’s right, 100-to-1. It’s perhaps not a surprise that those working for NBC Universal are the most eager givers to...
