Anyone hear Matthews just now on Hardball?
Gotta love that.

He just really took Issa to task for his silliness at using "the Democrat party"... he said, use English, and save the Mickey Mouse stuff for the stump. Issa stumbled around a bit, and while he was about to argue, Matthews threw it back to Frank.

I know it's a small thing, but it bugs me, and it's rude. It's good to see these idiots called on their childishness.

1. Good for him. If the Republicans are going to be petty they deserve to be called out.
Embarrassed. Precious little of that these last several years.

6. a year ago in a senatorial to-do, Harry Reid said "Republic" party
right after McConnell said "Democrat" party. McConnell never said it again.

4. Carville knocked out Ken Blackwell
for the same thing on CNN last week. Blackwell finally said, "Alright, the Democratic party then." And it's not a small thing! It is referring to something as it is. It's like Rethugs calling the stimulus bill 'socialism' and letting that slide too.

7. Carville is the most consistent in calling them on it
He does a great job.

8. It bugs the heck out of me, and I really wondered why for so long
no one was calling them on it.

It's not grammatical, as well.

It's very good to see people finally stepping in and calling those rude little playground bullies on it!

10. It does no good to criticize these Republics.
Being in the Republic Party just seems to ruin their sense of English.

15. I still don't get why anyone books Delay. He's over. Done with
Wasn't all that impressive even when he might have been considered powerful. You have to know he'll have nothing interesting or different to say. You could just open a can of Delay, with a born on date of somewhere in the Reagan administration...

16. I wish he would have called out Erlich for saying 'Pe-LOOSE-i'
I'm not sure if he heard it, but I did. It was at the tail end of the segment with Joan Walsh and Erlich tonight. Watch for it on mytube or yourface or whatever...

17. Oh brother.
She's not always been top of my love list, either. But why do they have to paint a target on any woman, particularly Democratic woman, with serious power? Pelosi really riles them. I suppose they're hoping she can be their new fundraiser.
