Is Chris Matthews a Subversive Hired by the Far Right of the Dems? Hmmmmhh? (upturned baby finger to mouth?)

I just watched the debates and have stayed focused on Chris Matthews' interpretation of the same, which immediately opened to his opinion of Dennis Kucinich. I will admit that I am a Kucinich supporter. I find that I identify with most of his political issues, but I am probably not a die-hard supporter of some of his social positions.

That having been said, what's with Chris Matthews? Was he asleep when the UFO story came out?

By leading into commercial chuckling about the UFO conundrum, he totally skewed the viewers to either agree or disagree. Who wouldn't want to laugh at the end of a tense debate? But Matthews deftly did it at a serious candidate's expense. The candidate who is yelling for impeachment. The candidate who can get us out of the war in Iraq. The candidate who dares to be original. Like the apoplectic bully that he is, Matthews reduced a man with novel political ideas (that are actually quite revolutionary) -- and reshaped him into a small novelty worthy of derision.

What's up with Chris "I am The Man" Matthews? I really think Matthews is flummoxed that someone like Dennis Kucinich might be as smart (and as rapid a speaker) as Matthews thinks he is. Matthews routinely interrupts his own thoughts with references to his faith -- he believes in the Catholic Church and talks as though everyone has his same world view. To some nonbelievers, that's no different than questioning UFOs! Immaculate conceptions and rising from the Dead? Really, Chris. So what's the deal with lampooning Kucinich, Chris?

Why Kucinich?

When you recounted the text messaged votes, on your perch outside of the debate hall, you mentioned Dennis and referenced the terms,"single digits," next to his name, and only listed the other candidates' numbers, without comment. What gives? Who has hired you to debunk this candidate -- in particular?

I wouldn't even watch Hardball were it not that he gets interesting people on his show -- who are bludgeoned with his spit-spat bath of questions that only he can answer -- because he never gets the whole sentence out before he starts answering his own question. I say put Matthews in a room with a mirror and let him ask and answer his own questions while he froths at the mouth.

So what gives, Mr. Holy Cross and Mr. North Carolina? You're with the Big Boys now, huh? Just like you always dreamed. Now you want to ruin someone else's. You're a bully and a bore. And you spit too much. And you talk loud, but like James Brown said, "You Ain't Sayin' Nothin."

So SHUTUP CHRIS -- We're trying to draw our own opinions. And may you eat your words as you get beamed up back to anonymity where you belong.
