Chris Matthews defends attack on Priebus: GOP 'dividing country along racial lines'

[Honeycombe8]

43. I've watched Hardball fairly regularly for many years. He's always been this way.

He goes overboard. He's emotional. He calls out people. He'll shout them down, but not as bad as O'Donnell.

He loves this person, he dislikes that person, he calls a guest's ideas wacko or crazy. He keep repeating and interrupting by saying, "That's not an answer. Answer the question." "That's not an answer. Answer the question."

He's a Democrat. Moderate. Sometimes I can tell he's on the side of the Dems, and sometimes he's on the side of the Repubs.

He was the first to call a birther guest more or less batshit crazy. That effectively ended the major media's coverage of those batshit crazy birther guests.

He's for the working man/woman. He's concerned with women's issues. Obviously concerned with racism.

Fathers don't usually change their working methods after decades to be like their son's, who are new and inexperienced in a business. It's the other way around. Tweety has never, that I've noticed, been a follower. Even Joe Scabby doesn't interrupt him. Tweety is what we dog owners would call an alpha male. He doesn't follow. He is followed.

Exhibit #1: Secondary male Joe Scabby, an alpha on his own show, doesn't interrupt Tweety while he browbeats Joe's VIP guest. Tweety is the alpha male. The other men at the table sit there while Tweety takes the lead.
