He really put Matthews in his place. It's been long overdue, and I'm glad it was Zell who did it.

Matthews trying to put it off as a "miscommunication." He can't accept the fact that he's a lousy talk show host and an asshole to boot.

He should have said his piece, and left it at that.

American politics has always been bare knuckled. Zell just punched someone. Chris Matthews. About damn time.

Matthews is trying to kiss up now. Rattling on and on too.

Zell said what a lot of viewers were thinking....I have watched Chris talk over guests so much I stopped watching him. Matthews is rude to his guests & Zell called him out on it. It was fantastic.

And deservedly, too. CM was so nasty with Michelle the other day. Mr. Miller is a good man. CM is still trying to defend himself. LOL!

PBS reporting wire services reporting Secret Service arrested someone on the floor

It's the third night in a row of this nonsense. I'm really angry about this.

J C Watts just missed a terrific opportunity.

Chris was recapping what he was trying to ask Zell. He said when Republicans talk of reforming Social Security, Dems decry that they're trying to destroy the program. The same for school lunches, etc...Dems say Repbublicans want to starve kids. Chris said he wanted to ask Zell if that type of "total destruction" is helpful to the debate.

HERE IS WHAT JC WATTS SHOULD HAVE JUMPED IN AND SAID:
Senator Miller might have been more respectful of your question if you could name ONE OTHER TIME WHEN A NATIONAL SHOW COMMENTATOR POINTED OUT THAT THAT"S WHAT THE DEMOCRATS DO!!! NO. THE FIRST TIME YOU BRING IT UP IS TO USE IT AS A CRITICISM OF REPUBLICANS.

THAT IS WHAT THE SENATOR WAS REACTING TO!

My father seems to feel that Matthews will lose his job in six months...his bias is just too obvious and they're losing viewers.

Matthews has a long-term contract with NBC. He's not going anywhere.

Mathews hits below the belt. Zell knocks his sorry ass out. Thats it in a nutshell, you'll have to wait for the transcript to get the full monty.

But Zell actually said he wished we were living in a different time so he could challenge Mathews to a duel. LOLLOLLOL

"Was Zell talking about the SwiftVet book at the end on CNN? He didn't mention a name"

No, he was sneaking in a plug for his own book that trashes what the Dem party has become.

We are living in historic times. It is hard to see sometimes when you are living it.

9/11 was a horror for the nation.

But it has provoked a changing of the guard.

Liberalism is in the process of being repudiated.

The mask is completely off the media, they can't pretend to be even handed any more.

The swift boat vets have been David against Goliath. Their adds have been as momentous as the Boston Tea Party.

They have been the first truely new thing in politics since this republic began. They have forced the nation to look at how history 30 years ago was corrupted. They are forcing the nation and politics to re-examine what has been accepted as truth.

We are witnessing the melt down of Democrats and the crumbling of old media.

I predict that if Kerry loses big you will see the Democrat Party fragment. I see the greens, the socialists, a sub group of anarchists and the Zell Miller Democrats will move into the Republican party.

Hope my crystal ball is on the money.

Matthews was trying to nitpick Zell and Zell wasn't having any part of it; Zell has COPIOUS notes stuck in all his pockets to back himself up....he was ready for them!

Now Matthews said that Zell needs to go read what he, Matthews said, rather than reading on internet "blogs."

Norah O'Donnell saying that the somebody wants to DESTROY somebody..........does she mean the GOP wants to destroy Kerry?

Matthews mournfully says this country was promised unity by GWB and didn't get it.

That's because it's only "unity" when the republicans are doing EXACTLY what the demon-RATS want, even when the pubbies are in the MAJORITY! Gosh, these dems are disgustingly disgraceful! Today Rush was making the point that they "just don't get it..." Oh, I think they "get it" alright! It's just that they don't give a darn about anything else but their own selfish, self-centered, egotistical obsessions.

Prissy-sissy Chrissy now trying to redeem himself after his disgraceful, disrespecful performance with Zell Miller. He should be ASHAMED!
