Dear Chris Matthews

[xiamiam]

I hold you responsible...for the lie that Sarah Palins speech was powerful..it was not...She competently read a speech written for her which had little substance and lots of venom..in front of her supporters..and you found that powerful?

No, what you saw was an energized republican base..spewing hatred and not hope..and once again, you move with the wind of the moment..It is irresponsible behavior and while I expect it from you, there was one moment after Obamas magnificent speech when that phony laugh of yours disappeared and when I thought you were genuinely moved by the possibilties of who we could be as a nation..

The fear in your eyes after Palins speech was evident..you looked shell shocked...its pitiful actually.. you gave her kudos in the fear of the moment...buck up buckaroo..its a new day..some Americans are actually that naive ...but most of us are not...

I would have preferred that you were honest...she read the speech well..she was divisive, sarcastic, stretched the truth, offered little to nothing in terms of issues facing the US...she did her job..unfortunately, you did not do yours...the truth is that the wind is not blowing in favor of the same old tired Rovian agenda...

Americans tend to love the ten minute celebrity...I think the media is also responsible for that disgusting cultural phenomena...Palin will be history very shortly...she will be chewed up and spit out by the same media who glorified her last night...including you...I'd make a bet on it...
