Chris Matthews Yells at Tea Party Leader: Why Is 'Balloon-Head' Bachmann Speaking for You?
Nation.Foxnews.Com ^ | Jan 25, 20111 | hypoCHRISSY Matthews

Posted on 01/26/2011 7:57:38 AM PST by Lazamataz

Chris Matthews was nearly apoplectic in his questioning of Tea Party Express co-founder Sal Russo on the topic of Congresswoman Michele Bachmann and her controversial re-imagining of history where the founding fathers found a way to end slavery in their lifetime. Repeatedly calling Bachmann a "balloon head," Matthews demanded to know why Russo and the Tea Party wanted Bachmann to give a response to the State of the Union address or, more generally, why they ever wanted her to open her mouth in the first place?

“Bachmann and the tea party spokesman both made a fool out of Pissy”

Apparently you watched a different video clip than I did.

I don’t think it’s smart for Bachmann to make comments like, “John Quincy Adams wouldn’t rest until slavery was abolished.”

I am sure she doesn’t think that slavery was abolished in Adams’ lifetime but the way she worded the statement gave an easy opening to people like Chrissy who are waiting in the wings to pounce. She has to develop better instincts if she expects to be a player on the national stage.

That’s a good way to put it: “unleash their HATRED.” He truly SHOULD seek help.

RE :”They look like Charlie Brown trying to kick the football. How stupid can they be?

Sometimes I think they are like those guests on Jerry springer or Steve Wilco, that they don't care if they are totally humiliated on MSNBC with their got-ya questions. They are just So happy to have someone put them on TV.

I would tell Matthews that he's just a Obama tool and he should start acting like a journalist. Most of these Republicans act like Deers in the headlights on these shows, terrified.

You ain't kidding, Chrissy "Bo-Tingles" Matthews has been fixated with Rep. Michele Bachmann for a couple years -- as Pat Buchanan mentioned the other day, Chrissy has Rep.Bachmann on his show something like every other night, LOL

Best TV available in America.

Nasty rude Chrissy trying to mock & ridicule & lampoon Michele, and she... it is so kewl, but it's VERY funny, too, she's utterly unimpacted by this vile little spittle filled talking head.

Doesn't matter WHAT he says to her OR even how he says it.... LOL, she's imperturbable to that wretched characature of a human being, NOTHING he says has ANY impact on her.

Oh, it's a grand show.

However, it really is obvious that he is really fixated on her, simply obsessed with her.

I doubt that Marcus Bachmann has ANY worries from Chrissy-poo Matthews, roflololololol!!

Thanks for your post.

One of the most ridiculous so-called "debates" appeared on Hannity this week between Santorum and Sharpton, with Hannity contributing his usual inane points along the way. It began as a debate about Santorum's use of the word "black man" in a recent interview concerning the subject of abortion.

Then, both fell into the "3/5 of a person" trap, revealing the ignorance of both about America's founding philosophy and the rationale of the 3/5 designation. Santorum would have been wise to have kept that out of his argument. One might not have expected Sharpton to understand and articulate the points you made in your post; but, Santorum should have known better.

>>>>> "After she made fun of him on Election Night by calling him out on his 'Thrill up his Leg' he has been obsessed with hating her." <<<<

THAT was SO funny!! However, he's been obsessed with Rep. Michele Bachmann for years. NO kidding, he's made such a spectacle out of himself that he tried to make himself look "normal" by scheduling his own wife and interviewing her for about a third of his stoop crackpot show.

Rep. Michele Bachmann NEVER notices Mr.Bo-Tingles & all his shennanigans, he is so RUDE, and she?

She is regal, she'd NEVER stoop to his stupid lowly level, LOL; she IGNORES everything he does & says and it drives him NUTS.

He's so seriously off his rocker, particularly with his fixation on Michele Bachmann that I've posted for well over a year, that this guy needs to be examined by a crack team of top neurosurgeons, FAST, as he's seriously off his rocker, NO kidding.

No chance. Chrissy catches for the other team. And the likes the dark meat.

I watched it too. Sharpton is not the sharpest pencil in the box and is h*ll bent on capitalizing on racism. We all need to know what’s in the Constitution and what it means. Especially if the person is an elected official.

Chrissy gets hysterical regarding Bachmann - it is almost sexual. Also, he wanted attention drawn away from Obama’s boring speech.

Chrissy might just be the next head to roll. He sounds hysterical.

No joking. I think he's going mad. I mean - clinically. He's short circuiting.

He sure appears to be. He’s almost foaming at the mouth, especially when he’s talking to a tea partier or conservative.

Where women are concerned, this guy is a real pig. He’s nothing but a mouthpiece for Democrats. Gets his talking points straight from the White House. I’d wager he’s doing the Administration’s dirty work for them.

... and Nazi Pelosi or Barbara Bouncer or Maxine Waters are not balloon heads???

Chrissy Matty better look in the mirror at his own party.

Michelle Bachman is way more intelligent than he is. He’s just a mouthpiece for the liberal machine. A cog in the wheel.

She’s one of the few free thinkers in Congress.
