If you watch MSNBC's "Hardball," you really have to scratch your head and wonder what host Chris Matthews is thinking when he opens his mouth sometimes.

On the March 30 broadcast of "Hardball," Matthews, MSNBC political analyst Pat Buchanan and Newsweek's Howard Fineman were discussing what they perceived to be a rift between former GOP vice-presidential candidate Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin and her running mate, former GOP presidential candidate Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz. based on McCain's unwillingness to commit to supporting Palin as a presidential candidate in 2012.

"what host Chris Matthews is thinking ..."

[gidget7]

I read that these old dead horse media types are going from Rush to Palin, as a target.

They will be sorry! Look what their venim did for Rush’s popularity.

[Jeb21]

He should resign from Hardball for this. He crossed a major line.

'Hardball' Host Matthews Refers to Sarah Palin as a 'Mail-Order Bride'

I wonder if he got a thrill up his leg when he said that, just like he does over Obama? What a dirt bag.

Remember folks, it’s not SP per se, that they hate and fear. It’s Christ. They “smell” the Holy Spirit in her.

2 Cor 2 14-16
14But thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumphal procession in Christ and through us spreads everywhere the fragrance of the knowledge of him. 15For we are to God the aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing. 16To the one we are the smell of death; to the other, the fragrance of life. And who is equal to such a task? 17Unlike so many, we do not peddle the word of God for profit. On the contrary, in Christ we speak before God with sincerity, like men sent from God.

What is WRONG with that douch bag? I’m so sick of that pansy-ass creep and his innane blather. He needs to just shrivel up and blow away. For years now I’ve just wanted to slap his surly, smirking face. Ugh!

If she's a mail-order bride, he's the tattered and torn mail order catalogue like those found in aromatic outhouses across the fruited plain.

Mathews is a mail order jerk.

[DTogo]

Chris is jealous, wishes he were half the man Todd is, and his own wife was half as beautiful as Sarah.

"83% of people who hate Sarah Palin are gayer than Easter baskets," says Fyodor Quackenbush of Hackensack Community College.

That is hilarious!

[Mr. Mojo]

From an unnamed source: Chris Matthews masturbates to photos of Gov. Palin.

I suspect he's far more likely to spank his monkey to photos of the guy who sends thrills up his ..."leg."

[kcvl]

[sneakin]

Chris who?

Am I suppose to know this guy?

Does he have some piddling little blog or something?

[fish hawk]

there should be a law on FR that no one can post anything Prissy Matthews has to say. He's a jerk and irrelevant.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Chrissy the Tingler is REALLY starting to piss me off with his stupidity.

'If she is a mail order bride, we need to order another few million of her..'

Indeed

[Batman11]

I would like Todd Palin to pay him a visit and say: “That’s my bride you’re talking about”! Then Todd proceeds to knock Matthew’s teeth out of his head!

[Kimberly GG]

If he’s saying that MCCAIN saw her as little more than a mail order bride (ticket mate), then I’d have to agree...I think that’s exactly as McCain saw and has treated her.
