Chris Matthews Is Pimp Slapping Matt Dowd....

[DemocratSinceBirth]

Pardon my French but Matt Dowd is getting a bruised asshole....

[Catt03]

1. OMG

This is unbelievable.

Mattehws is demanding they take his "tape" out of their commercial!

[DemocratSinceBirth]

4. You Can Accuse Kerry Of A Muddled Response... That's All

wow...

[MikeG]

2. That mental picture must leave my brain soon or I'll hurl.

[childslibrarian]

3. It is so Great!!!

Go Chris!!!!

[Catt03]

5. Matthews must be reading our email

[Moonbeam_Starlight]

6. Excuse my ignorance

and flat-out refusal to turn on Matthews, but who is Matt Dowd and why is Matthews giving him a bruised arsehole?

[Catt03]

9. You missed a classic

Dowd is Republican strategist debating Democrat spokesman Ted Devine....who barely got to say anything.

Chris verbally abused him and he deserved it.

[Sydnie]

23. Isn't it Tad Devine?

I happen to know that because I once hired his brother. His brother Ron (Actually Harold, but he preferred Ron) applied to be the Superintendent of School of the town where I was chair of the school committee. Gave him a 6 year contract.

I know his brother, Tad worked hard for Gore's campaign. Missed the show tonight, but I believe it's Tad that was on tonight.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

24. It's Tad....

I think he's one of the better campaign spokespersons.

[Kahuna]

47. Tad is good. Miles better than the Gore spokespeople..

I won't mention any names.

13. Matt Dowd is a

Repuke/Bush'Cheney strategist...

Matthews railed on him because they posted an interview between Matthews and Kerry on their repuke website that suggests Kerry promoted himself as an anti-war campaigner in the primaries. Except that they cut Kerry's answer to Matthews question mid-word and mid-sentence to make it LOOK like Kerry said, Yup...When in fact Kerry said that he was against the way the President waged the war in Iraq...

[David Dunham]

27. Dowd is the guy running Bush's campaign.

[LisaL]

38. YES

YES, the repugs wanted for it to seem that he flipped-flopped, when he didn't.

[Catfight]

7. If Matt got in a hair-pulling fight with Anne Coulter, I still wouldn't

watch CNN, FAUX or any of those Fright Wing networks...they are just as bad as watching Jerry Springer.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

10. I've Seen Chris Matthews Destroy Coulter (nt)*

I call em the way I see em

[buycitgo]

17. hair? what hair?

she's more MANLY than he is, too

[buycitgo]

8. rats.....took too long to type my thread

was that the BEST, or what?

he was as mad that they used HIS tape to sell their sleazy lies

that was it more than outrage over twisting Kerry's statement

doncha think?

[DemocratSinceBirth]

12. I Thought Tweety Or Matthews Was Fair....

Kerry and Clark always had a nuanced position on Iraq... Even Dean had a nuanced position....


Only DK and AS had an unambiguous anti war position...

[Cheswick2.0]

16. Dean was not nuanced on the war

Sorry, but Dean voters knew where Dean stood. I still have yet to figure out where Kerry stands.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

19. Dean Said He Would Have Voted For Biden-Lugar

DK and AS were against the war without caveats or reservations....


Dean said he would have supported the war if it was fought under a U N flag...



It's water under the bridge now....

[Feanorcurufinwe]

21. Please don't go into it.

We've just had that argument too many times already.

[molly]

33. Can you imagine what would be happening to Dean

if he were the candidate?

[DrFunkenstein]

37. Ixnay On The Eanday

Let bygones be bygones. No one's mind is going to change at this point, so let's just let it drop.

[Guaranteed]

44. Yeah, he'd be running away with it.

That's what happens when you position yourself WELL on the issues.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

46. "Yeah,he'd be running away with it."

Let it go....


Dean would have been McGovernized by now and there would have been collective gnashing of the teeth at this site at the prospect of four more years of Bush....




Let it go....

[Guaranteed]

48. *I* didn't bring it up.

And you're dead fucking wrong anyway.

Read my sig line. Kerry can't say that. Dean can- and would have the balls to actually say it, too. That's called a LEGITIMATE foreign policy, and everyone knows it.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

51. I'm Wrong...

Mr. Primal Scream couldn't even carry Iowa....


He became a national joke after his scream......



on edit-read some history.... mcgovern actually had the more popular position on the war but he got his head handed to him because the Pukes convinced the American people he couldn't or wouldn't defend them... your argument isn't with me it's with history....

[KittyWampus]

14. OMFG! Dowd Sez Clinton Served W/Distinction & Didn't Serve In Military

HAHAHAHAH!!!

[DemocratSinceBirth]

15. He Was Soooooooo Off His Game....

Dowd looked like he was going to cry when they laughed at him over that....

[molly]

34. He was in shock because Matthews didn't back him up

:kick: :kick: :kick:

[Zynx]

39. Whoa! They finally admitted it.

LOL!

[Rambis]

49. It's the rapture! /nt

[shrike]

50. LOL

[Sparkly]

18. Tweety's getting some new fans, or at least viewers

That was a great smackdown. I loved that he showed the clip numerous times over, and compared it with the RNC edit-job.

That and his recent smackdown of John O'Neill show good signs! :)

[DemocratSinceBirth]

20. Chris Matthews Is A Very Skilled Interlocutor....

Whether you love him or hate him... Whether he's on your side or not you have to give him props for his forensic skills... He'd have made a great trial lawyer...

[grasswire]

22. Tweety doesn't do his homework..

...well enough to be a lawyer. He's shallow in some areas.

He was quite quirky with the young protester! Barbara Comstock was feeling quite left out.

[SayitAintSo]

35. He's good when he is "drilling" the spin out .... I hate it when he

talks over people and won't let them finish. It's rude and uninteresting.

[barb162]

26. yeah, I saw both

Matthews can be a real animal, but I love it when he goes after these Republican liars.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

28. He Was Pissed

I guess he didn't like being dragged into the partisan thicket....

[Raiden]

25. I love Chris Matthews

not to mention Tad Devine. Unlike most 'journalists' Chris Matthews at least tries to look at the big picture.

[molly]

36. He usually tells it like it is

welcome to DU!!!

[gcomeau]

29. Someone PLEASE...

...get a clip of this online so it can be spread it around.

-Grant

[AmerDem]

30. Doesn't Tweety's show repeat during the night?

I thought they replay him towards midnight or so. anybody?

[faithnotgreed]

31. 11 eastern i think. same time as tds unfortunately

[molly]

32. I came away from that interview with the sense that we

are talking "LAWSUIT" if the pugs don't tell the truth. I'd love to see Matthews and MSNBC go after them - the arrogant f'n assholes. They never expected this. People are getting pissed - bigtime.

[henslee]

40. I am watching the Hardball rerun. Where is the Matt Dowd slapdown?

I saw Clark. I saw the Green party activist. Is it next?

[Bush was AWOL]

41. On Now

[Placebo]

42. I HEART MATTHEWS.

:loveya: Hardball :loveya:

[UCLA02]

43. Tweety is good, but doesn't do enough homework...

He could have handed Dowd his ass (even moreso than he did) if he threw back *'s use of the word "sensitive" the very next day at the very same conference regarding the war on terror. So by Cheney's logic, Bush should be painted as a sissy on terror with the same brush they've used on Kerry about Iraq.


All in all, Tweety was in good form tonight. Starting to redeem himself

[DeepModem Mom]

45. Let's give Tweety some positive feedback: [email protected] and...

MSNBC, 201-583-5000.

[Mountainman]

52. MSNBC web site Chris Matthews sets the record straight
