Did NBC Honcho Suggest Palin Is Viagra for McCain?

You could see this one coming. After Harry Smith called Sarah Palin "Geritol" for McCain, some MSMer was bound to take things the next step. I'd say it just happened. NBC News DC bureau chief Mark Whitaker was chatting with Andrea Mitchell at 1:27 PM EDT today.

MARK WHITAKER: [People] want to see passion. They want to see that Obama, and the same thing is true of McCain, and we've seen him [show] a lot more passion since he picked Sarah Palin, it's definitely --

ANDREA MITCHELL: Someone described it as Geritol.

WHITAKER: Well, or something else. Put a little pep in his step!

Consult your doctor if this ping to Today show list lasts more than 4 hours.

....from the same network which skipped the first half of Fred Thompson's speech, and then had Brian Williams regurgitating proven false left wing nut blogs about Governor Sarah Palin banning books.

NBC = Nothing But Crap

Of course they did. The other day, was it last night?, Matthews was going on and on and on about Sarah and McCain being a couple.

It made no sense but then Matthews never does make sense.

"Some say we lie at NBC because we are twisted Democrat partisans.
Others note that we just plain jealous and cannot cope. Both are actually true."

Important notice to Obama/Biden ‘08 supporters...if your hopes stay up for longer than four hours, see your doctor immediately.

Honestly.... I think we are nitpicking here a bit.

While it probably wasn’t that smart it seems like over analyzing to me.

Not to mention Lisa Meyers challenging three of Governor Palin’s statements on last night’s Nightly News.

“It made no sense but then Matthews never does make sense.”

That tingling feeling makes it hard for him to concentrate.

You don’t think he was referring to Viagra? Have you had a chance to view the video? He and Andrea shared a laugh. Why would that be?

Ironic since Andrea is married to a much older man.

Bill Maher had it right. Olbermann and Matthews want to have sex with O=man.
