The Trouble With Mary
By: Christy Hardin Smith
http://www.firedoglake.com/2007/02/08/the-trouble-with-mary/

Here's a bit more from Matalin's impromptu calls to Imus this morning, again via Atrios:
-------------------------------------------
Matalin: We were friends for a really really long time.

Imus: Why do you not like him now:

Matalin: This is not about him or me or liking or disliking. I do not like anyone - I'm being redundant here - who purports to be a purveyor of truth and serving the public by serving the truth out there who flagrantly is making up stuff. To my mind an observation a nightly flagrant bias, an untruthtelling, about the circumstances surrounding this and other things having to do with the Vice President. And I did call his producers to no avail. Chris is to his producers as you are to the world, but you're in a different position.

So it's not what I think about him. I think he's an incredible human being who has overcome a lot. I love his wife and when his show was first on it was must see TV. And now I can't trust… if I know for a fact that everything he's saying about things in which I'm involved are wrong then I can't trust anything else that he says.
--------------------------------------------
But Mary, what if you know for a fact that what Matthews is saying is true, but that by saying it, he's damaging the political prospects of your former boss nee political godfather by calling his myriad of lies to the public's attention? By questioning the little credibility that Vice President Cheney might have left at his 18% approval rate and falling, does Matthews' questioning beging to impinge not just on your former boss's ego, but also, perhaps, on your own personal consulting and lobbying and self-promotioning bottom line? Guess that's a horse of a different color altogether, isn't it? Or perhaps a roosting chicken?


<snip>

Then after reporting her "IF SCOOTER WROTE IT DOWN I SAID IT correction, firedoglake writes:

Ummm….as Duncan asks, can you tell what her talking point was for the call back? Can you say "questioning Scooter Libby's credibility during his criminal trial was not smart"? I can. I can also say "someone placed a call to Mary and asked for an immediate correction on the record." Any guesses on who that might have been?
