On Hardball [Only if Youre a Republican] tonight Chris Matthews discussed no bid contracts with Rep. Pete King (R) and Rep. Bennie Thompson (D). When questioned about Chertoff and the President taking Katrina seriously, King doesnt take any crap from Chris:
KING: As far as President Bush, its wrong for you to say he wasnt caring, he certainly was caring. What he was not equipped for was to explain for the incompetency of the local officials or to explain the hysteria to anticipate the hysteria of people like you in the media who go off the deep end. Lets treat this with a little bit of rationality and a little bit of decency.
MATTHEWS: The fact is that most people trust the media on this story because the pictures of what was happening down there in New Orleans apparently got to them before they heard of any federal action.
KING: Chris you are totally distorting reality, and thats the problem with you. Youre distorting reality. Youre on this story, you and MSNBC got carried away with this. You should all be ashamed of yourself. Youve disgraced yourself and the media.
Can I get an Amen?
That's my congressman :) Unfortunately we have dweebs for Senators. At least one guy who represents me.
Just one thing for me ...partisan hacks.
"Thanks! Ever since I became a member at FR, I've been hooked."
Payday, Political Teen, a little in the tip jar from me.
Peter slapped him so many times I thought I was watching a tennis match, he was speechless similiar to that Zell moment in Sept.2005.
Did Chrissy cry?
Amen ping!
Someone on another thread said Hardball repeats at 03:00 EST. Which segment does this interview occur in?
Bump for later...
Amen and Amen.
Reminds me of an Arab joke.
Sheik Sahib al Mohammed wants to make his little boy's 10th birthday an event that all the other sheiks will envy. So he asks little Mohammed what he wants for his birthday.
The boy says he'd like to go to the local amusement park.
The sheik invites 300 of the kid's closest friends, charters a 747, and flies the entourage to Paris.
He rents out an entire 5-star hotel, puts the entire kid birthday party up in the luxury suites, then asks little Mohammed how he likes everything.
The kid is overwhelmed. He is overcome with happiness at being able to enjoy such fine pleasures, and he mentions to his father that he wishes the day would never end.
Clap clap. The Sheik says, "Your wish is my command!".
He buys the kid the hotel.
This same sort of thing goes on for the entire next day as they tour Paris. Everytime the kid says he has enjoyed something and he wishes it would never end, the Sheik claps his hands, Your wish is my Command, etc. and buys whatever the kid enjoyed.
So the entourage finally goes to Euro-Disney. After the day, the Sheik asks little Mohammed how he enjoyed the day.
The kid replies, "It was wonderful, father, thank you for making my wish come true."
"Would you like me to buy Euro-Disney for you, son, so that you can enjoy it the rest of your life?"
"No father, you have overwhelmed me with gifts. All I really would like to have is to have a little Mickey Mouse outfit."
So the SHeik claps his hands and buys MSNBC.
