chucky todd & tweety are pissed that barack wasn't an asshole

[spanone]

fuck these cheesebags

[flakey_foont]

1. at work so can't watch

what are they saying?

[spanone]

5. they said barack had chances to take down hillary and didn't ...like the bosnia thing

i find it refreshing he didn't

[PM7nj]

14. He defended her... I was very happy.

He didn't sink to the level of Hillary and the Republicans. Obama knows that no matter what, you shouldn't attack another Democrat over silly "gaffes" (even though I think sniper fire was more than a gaffe... it was a lie). Yes, Obama could have taken her down, but I am very happy that he didn't. Hillary could learn from him.

[LSparkle]

19. He was dignified and presidential ... I think undecided SDs will approve

He didn't need to wrestle her in a debate -- might have made him look
like a scrappy kid. Instead, he let her throw the mud as she dug herself
into a hole.

[City Lights]

2. Are they pissed or bitter?

Either way, fark tweety, the spitting idiot.

[DJ13]

3. I have it on here too

They seem incapable of criticizing either ABC or Clinton.

[Cha]

4. Well, they can go down

with that fucking ship,then.

[DJ13]

7. Im really wondering who got to Todd

He used to be very impartial (if not slightly leaning towards Obama), but today he was right inline with the pro-Clinton BS.

Im wondering if he wasnt given a talking to by the network.

[knixphan]

16. networks hire talking dogs

[CherokeeDem]

17. I noticed Todd's behavior as well.

I couldn't understand how he had been so impartial before and after last night, really came off so negative. I heard him say something about both Dem candidates being bad. Couldn't figure that out.

[City Lights]

20. What I'm reading about Todd surprises me too.

It will be interesting to see if he's on with Olbermann tonight.

[Windy]

22. The media is being attacked by those who thought last night was a travesty. They are being defensive

Protecting their turf so to speak.

[ericgtr]

26. I have been wondering this same thing, he was our unbiased source for analysis

What the fuck happened to him?

[K Gardner]

31. Something definitely happened. His remarks last night were scripted and planned, very odd and

not like him.

[Cha]

38. It seems only obvious to those of us who

have been diligently following this so we'll see what happens. We could always write him and call him on his about face.

[spanone]

8. even bob herbert who was on earlier...walked on eggshells when it came to criticizing abc

the media will never blame it's own....how else would you explain faux news?

[Tribetime]

12. I'll bet Olbermann won't hold back

[Coexist]

36. he's not!

[tishaLA]

27. of course they don't criticize ABC

the media loves only one entity more than John McCain: itself. It will never turn on itself.

[tokenlib]

6. They just want him to stoop to old politics..

..so he can be slimed some more.

[rurallib]

11. They want the presidential race to turn into the WWF

[book_worm]

9. Who cares? that's all the media cares about. Voters got Hillary's number

that's why her negatives are rising. Soon enough this will be over with and Obama will be our nominee.

[kentuck]

10. And Mathews asked if ABC News was "Washington" ?

As in the "Washington" that Obama spoke of today? He seemed to pooh-pooh the idea. But, yes, ABC NEws and all the news in Washington is elitist and in a bubble.

[Pirate Smile]

21. They are the people that feed off the ridiculous crap so, yes, Obama is talking

about them when he says "Washington" - the media, political consultants and many of the politicians.

They don't like being called out for focusing on crap. They make a living based on the media frenzy surrounding each irrelevant gaffe.

Obama is attacking them too and they, of course, don't like it.

[pdxmom]

13. They wanted a fight and didn't get one. Today, all they really have

to talk about is how crappy ABC was, and they don't like to really criticize each other.

If it's Obama and McCain in the GE, they see their tabloid schtick drying up.

[Cosmocat]

40. Both points ...

Two sweet spots here ...

1) They get all defensive about possible criticism of their own ... They are SO freakin in the bubble ...
2) They WANT this to be competitive to keep the show going for ratings ...

Just MIND boggling, it truly just showed that they want to throw blood on these two and have them rip each other apart ...

[DainBramaged]

15. Watching Tweety is like watching a monkey masturbate

It just makes you feel icky all over.

[knixphan]

18. ain't that the truth!

[Bensthename]

23. I am slow to catch on I guess. Are you guys referring to Mathews as Tweety?

I've heard "Tweety" a couple of times now but havent been able to put two and two together. And I havent watched any shows today to help figure it out..

[DainBramaged]

25. Yup.Tweety, the masturbating monkey, AKA Chris Mattheeeeews

[BlueIdaho]

30. What do you mean "is like?"

[DainBramaged]

34. You never went to a zoo and saw the monkeys masturbating??

What a sheltered childhood.

Seriously, if you ever lived near the Bronx Zoo in the Fifties or Sixties, the monkeys there were evil. But since I haven't gone since 1968, I still relate the monkeys to Tweety.

[BlueIdaho]

35. Actually I meant

When I watch Tweety I AM watching a monkey jerk off.

[DainBramaged]

37. HAHAHAHAHAHAH

Excellent analogy.

:rofl: :hi:

[progdog]

24. They want to string it out

so they can get an all expense paid trip to Puerto Rico.
They have no real sense of responsibility.

[milkyway]

28. Barack's smart enough to know he'll need Clinton supporters in November.

Too smart and too classy to sink to their level.

[treestar]

29. Candidates seem to feel that they must be respectful of the media

Yet I'm not sure. Suppose Obama had said of the lapel pin question: That's not relevant, let's move on - would it have had a good effect? I wonder if the voters might not actually respond very positively if he'd just said, calmly, of course, "That's a stupid and irrelevant question."

It is weird that even the President does not feel like he can criticize the reporters/media. It would show leadership, perhaps.

[redqueen]

32. Hahaahahah... "cheesebags"

:loveya:

[zulchzulu]

33. I'm convinced they want to race to go on with stupid issues because they might...

...actually have to get of their ass and do some REAL journalism...

They need a new Britney. A new OJ. Some murder trial that goes on for months. That stuff doesn't piss off their Overlords that are making some serious coin making weapons for war.

[AX10]

39. Strange. Tweets and Todd have been up Obama's ass...

since Iowa.

[DainBramaged]

41. Obama needs an "asstity" belt to get away from these two buttwipes

:rofl: I made a funny.

[stillcool]

42. Obama won't play with them...

whatever are they going to do with their sandbox?

[Beacool]

43. When did he defend her?

When he brought up the "baking cookies" comment from 1992????????? Too funny.
