"Sudden Infant Crib Death!"

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

- Tweety

MATTHEWS:. Let's talk about this fight here. My conjecture here, which I opened the show with, was the Clintons believe they've got to stop Obama early. They want sudden infant crib death, is what they want. They want this guy to die before Iowa. And they are unleashing everybody they've got, everybody who wants -- every meal ticket they've got, everybody that wants to be a cabinet member, a VP, a staffer. They're all out there -- Bob Kerrey , Vilsack, Billy Shaheen, Mark Penn, Phil Singer.

You can't make this shit up.

1. Only Tweety could look like a moron with this weak insult to both candidates.

[shraby]

2. No one should use that term in that manner.

It is a very real and very scary event for some families. Absolutely not funny and used thoughtlessly.

3. It was Used With Thought, Ma'am

The intention is to invoke the specter of the 'un-natural woman', the 'un-sexed' woman pursuing masculine ambitions, in the pattern of Lady MacBeth, and willing to carry it even to the point of killing a child.

Matthews has some real problems where women are concerned....

4. He's gotten so creepy I can't even stand to watch him.

Surprised he hasn't been "Imused" yet, considering some of the gross things he says.

5. Matthews has some real problems where reality is concerned

as well...

6. Ugh! How low can a yellow journalist get?

:puke:

... look to Chris Matthews to set the bar.

9. Oh come on swampy He's still higher than Oriely

My bad, you said journalist.

Neither of them are really, eh?

7. What a disgusting analogy to make.

The man has just fallen to a new low. I didn't believe that was possible.

8. "Strangling the baby in its crib" is ancient. Cf: attempt on baby Hercules.

I think Tweety might have been going for the mythic allusion/concept, albeit speaking clumsily, as is his wont.

[Hoof Hearted]

10. It's like he has rabies or something.

His hatred of Senator Clinton is becoming all-consuming. I can't wait till his head just explodes.
