The Five Million Dollar Idiot

Leftists who get worked up about the Growing Gap Between Rich and Poor really ought to organize an #OccupyChrisMatthews movement to protest this truthless waste of TV time whose NBC contract reportedly pays him $5 million a year. If I took notice every time Chris Matthews makes a complete idiot of himself, I’d never have time […]

Another Sad Installment in the Series: ‘Why the Hell Is Chris Matthews on TV?’

Chris Matthews just said some crazyass shit on #MSNBC that’s gonna blow your mind when you see it. Got that clip, Media Research? — Robert Stacy McCain (@rsmccain) October 23, 2012 My usual habit after debates has been to switch to MSNBC and see what their reaction is.

@hardball_chris ‘Pecksniff’ Matthews Goes After Welch’s Calling BS On BLS
