Jeez--- Tweety is being a complete asshole with Alan Grayson
Treating him like an idiot, interrupting (as always). Being a REAL asshole! About reconciliation.

1. Because Tweety IS an a$$hole. What did you expect?
Can't view from here, but I suspect Grayson held his own.

3. You rarely see this scumbag treat Republicans this way.
Instead, he drools over how handsome they all are.

4. Yeah, but Grayson is laughing at him -- handling it well. I just posted
that I hope Grayson DOES go out and get the proof that Tweety is saying doesn't exist.

12. Aw geez, don't tell me
Tweety has that "thrill up his leg" over Brown.

Next we'll hear him exclaim over Brown's "manly smell" and "sunny nobility". :eyes:

6. This new way of interviewing guests where the host constantly interrupts and
talks over what the guest is saying is very annoying, to say the least. It's not only Tweety, they do it on progressive radio as well.

FNC (beyond their RW agenda) is unwatchable when 6 people are trying to talk at once, you can't hear anything but noise. I suppose it's a Libertarian theory of broadcasting, no rules - you can do anything you want.

7. Tweety things he's "old school" and has nothing but contempt for "upstarts"
Tweety epitomizes "conventional wisdom" of beltway politics but he wears that like a badge of honor, brags about it and pretty much hates anyone he thinks is a young upstart or doesn't understand "how politics works" according to him.

He is an elitist prick and yet I still watch him sometimes for reasons that pass understanding. I guess sometimes I get a kick out of how excited he gets about politics. Can't help but like him a little, sometimes.

21. You hit the nail on the head. Contempt for upstarts.
Grayson hasn't paid his dues. Doesn't have enough scars. Hasn't stabbed enough people in the back.

Seriously, fuck Chris Matthews. He can shove his beltway wisdom up his ass.

9. Tweety is now playing to the repukes and teabaggers.
He always has to be playing on the winning side. He's Wormtail with Canary blonde hair.

15. Grayson does not adequately appreciate the truck...
For Matthews, all politics revolves around this magical truck.

Reject the truck, and you've got problems with Chris.

It's all about the truck now people.

Matthews can't really juggle a whole lot of concepts at one time. When he gets stuck on something, it absorbs ALL of his limited attention span.

It's going to be awhile before the awsomeness of the truck fades for him.

23. Grayson embarassed himself....
... he handled that horribly. He was completely unprepared to explain *how* you can use *budget* reconciliation to create a program when it's limited to *budget* items only.

He started to talk about having a senate bill with 60 votes, but let Matthews press him on another point and never brought it back up.

I can understand why people might be upset with Matthews for his temperment, but Grayson looked like a DUer caught without really knowing exactly how the process works.

He goes where the wind blows. He loves power - end of story.
