An outraged Chris Matthews scolded John McCain, on Tuesday's "Hardball," for criticizing Obama's stance on Iran's elections as the MSNBC host exclaimed: "The difference between the President, who is being very calm and not jumping up and down, and those on the right who are hitting the idiot button right now. And the idiot button is the one often pushed by Sarah Palin, but this week by John McCain and others." Matthews -- who also mocked Sarah Palin for praising the troops in her acceptance of David Letterman's apology -- attacked conservatives in general for engaging in "idiot talk."
MATTHEWS: Okay yeah, let me try to get to your left, let me try to get to your left Lawrence because I feel like getting over there tonight. Snuggling over to your left Lawrence O'Donnell because I disagree with you. I think there's become, there's become this new idiot button on the right where you have to punch this button in order to be considered a real conservative now. "Obama is a socialist on health care. He's a socialist. All his fiscal programs are insanely socialistic." You have to punch that button. Then you gotta say this [Iran] election was "bogus." You gotta punch that button. If you don't talk in that, that right wing, idiot talk you're not considered a conservative any more. The idea of being a thoughtful person is wrong now, politically, on that side of the aisle. That's where I think it's going.

Oh my, first it was tingles up the leg and now its snuggling ... seems that Crissy has some issues that he just can't keep to himself, ehhh ?
If anyone knows about idiot talk, it’s Chris. Does he do anything else?
THe right wing hits the idiot button...and right on cue, Chris Matthews jumps up and down.
Little Chrissy is a misogynistic twit with no ratings. Ignore him. Nobody cares what he thinks.
-chrissy, suffering from frothing diarrhea of the mouth again.
If Obama would quit being a socialistic idiot, nobody would have to point it out and hit that button.
