This is a reply to something another poster said.
Gregory is a lightweight and his show has really exposed that. He is another amplifier for conventional wisdom, kind of a Tim Russert without the big bulbous nose.
Matthews grew up admiring Barry Goldwater (his brother is a Republican) before he went to work for O'Neil (and I always wondered if Matthews might have been a Republican mole during that time) and he has always had it in for Hillary Clinton. One of his good buddies is Scooter Libby and Matthews argued for Libby's pardon.
He started out as favoring McCain, but Crash is running such a bad campaign that I think Matthews might be throwing in the towel on that one.

Note: Once again the slobbering admiration of the Buffalo Bloviator, Tim Russert, probably torpedoed this from seeing the light of day. Either that, or the moderator hates me personally because I tend to cut right to the bone or they have a thing for dog faced boy David Gregory. Media cronyism and censorship: an evil dyad.

MSNBC Implosion
Story is here.
I think this is hilarious. From a station that stopped just short of putting Ashley Banfield in a cheerleader uniform in the opening days of the Iraq War to now the rightwingers and leftwingers warring with each other on MSNBC as it makes a transition from a minor league echo chamber for the Bush line to one that is finally willing to tell the public the truth.
And asking MSNBC's management to openly declare its sympathies? That's also really funny since Faux Nooz won't do that itself in its role as a loudspeaker for corporate fascism and its enablers on the right.
And can anybody hear the name "Wolf Blitzer" and not start laughing? You half expect him to do his shows dressed up in a German Field Marshall's uniform. In fact, that will be my new nickname for Blitzer, Field Marshall Wolf.
But getting back to MSNBC, the parent company is run by Republicans. To see them now deeply conflicted over not just the dissension going on between intellectually dishonest "I have a hard on for Hillary," Chris Matthews, Buttfaced rightwing hack Joe Scarborough and and MSNBC savior Keith Olbermann is just too delicious for words. Matthews and Scarborough wants to draw Rachel Maddow into this maelstrom of mutual loathing, but she just isn't interested and I can't blame her..
At least MSNBC is no longer boring, which it was when it had hosts such as Chuck Grodin, Tucker Carlson and Phil Donahue.

Note: Huh? Was it the Field Marshall Wolf line? Me calling Arianna icon Phil Donahue boring (which he was)? Or Arianna showbiz friend Chuck Grodin equally tedious? I'm totally at a loss here. Any suggestions?
