Matthews to torpedo Hillary for Sec State |
|
Booooo. The primary is over Chris. It's unity time. Via the NY Post: "HARDBALL" host Chris Matthews and the other "castratos" at MSNBC shouldn't hold their breath waiting for a Hillary Clinton interview.
Matthews, who once opined that men who supported Clinton were "castratos in the eunuch chorus," forgot the cardinal rule for those who are often mentioned on Page Six - he didn't take a good look around on the Acela train from Philadelphia to Washington Saturday before he started bad-mouthing the New York senator.
An avowed Clinton lover who was sitting next to Matthews reports: "He was in business class wearing a red baseball hat that said Penn on the back, and the fat fell asleep on the train and snored with his mouth open."
During the ride to DC, Matthews awoke from his nap. A fellow passenger asked him, "What's the news tomorrow?" - to which Matthews loudly started talking about President-elect Barack Obama possibly picking Hillary as his secretary of state.
"I don't understand it," Matthews bellowed. "Why would he pick her? I thought we were done with the Clintons. She'll just use it to build her power base. It's Machiavellian. And then we'll have Bill Clinton, too. I thought Obama didn't want drama. He's already got Emanuel and Podesta. He'll have even more drama with her.
"She's just a soap opera. If he doesn't pick her, everyone will say she's been dissed again, we'll have to live through that again."
Matthews seems to be playing both sides of the fence. The host, who apologized to Clinton last year for claiming she got where she was because "her husband messed around," said on-air last Friday: "Look, I think that since she lost the fight for the nomination, has been not just a good soldier, she has sang the tune of . She's been illustrious, she's been admirable . . . her spirit seems to be with him."
A rep for Clinton declined to comment while a rep for Matthews didn't return e-mails.

2. Amen! We have a real-time crisis and don't need more Clinton FAUX dramas. |

HRC is an excellent Senator and does well by NY State. I hope she remains there and continues to thrive.

At the end of the day, like the Clintons or not, Matthews needs to stop going off on his personal tirades

7. Matthews has an obsession |
|
I don't like Hillary, but this guy has said things that are a bit out of line about Hillary. He should tone it down.

9. BRING BACK CLINTON SUCCESSES |
|
People are tired of Clintons from the $110,000,000(gao number) spent by Newt-Lott on hearings and investigations trying to destroy them. SMEARATHONS GALORE. FACTS FEW.
TRY THIS RECORD--
CLINTON-GORE ACCOMPLISHMENTS ALL AMERICAN TEAM SHOW ME A BETTER RECORD GDP--rose from 6,300 to 11,600 NATIONAL INCOME- 5,000 to 8,000 Billion-- JOBS CREATED—237,000 per month to replace Jimmy Carter record of 218,000. AVERAGE WEEKLY EARNINGS--$360 to $478 AVERAGE WEEKLY HOURS WORKED--never hit 35.0--hit that mark 4 times in 80's UNEMPLOYMENT--from 7.2% down down down to as low as 3.9% MINIMUM WAGE--$4.25 to $5.15 MINORITIES--did exceedingly well HOME OWNERSHIP--hit all time high (no big deal most can say this-except Reagan) DEFICIT--290 Billion to whoopee a SURPLUS DEBT----+43------300% increase over prior 12 years by Conservatives. FEDERAL SPENDING--+28%-----+80% under Reagan- who is da true conservative? DOW JONES AVERAGE—3,500 to 11,720 top in 2000. All it's history to get to 3500 and Clinton zooms it NASDAQ--700 to 5,000 top in 2000.---All of it's history to get to 700 and Clinton zooms it VALUES INDEXES-- almost all bad went down--good went up in zoom zoom zoom FOREIGN AFFAIRS--Peace on Earth good will toward each other---Mark of a true Christian--what has Bush done to Peace on Earth? POPULARITY---highest poll ratings in history during peacetime in AFRICA, ASIA AND EUROPE . Even 98.5% in Moscow--left office with Highest Gallup rating since it was started in 1920's. STAND UP FOR JUSTICE--evil conservatives spent $110,000,000 on hearings and investigations and caught one very evil man who took a few plane rides to events. BOW YOUR HEADS—“Thank you God for sending us a man of Bill Clinton's character, intelligence, knowledge of governance, ability to face up to crises without whimpering and a great leader of the world. Amen”. THANK YOU GOD FOR THE GOOD TIMES THE CLINTON YEARS.
SMEARATHON THAT ACCOMPLISHMENT LIST
