"Kennedy made a complete ass of himself" -- No actual donkeys or buttocks were involved

Though you do have to admit that if Rose was delivering baby Teddy in his present form, it would be a toss-up as to which end the doctor would slap...and maybe which Kennedy he would slap!

Not confusing at all. just another liberal twisting words to protect another liberal from the truth.If the shoe fits, it must fit you, unless you are a libreal then it only fits if you whant it to. Dang, Do you see what I have been going on about, the P.C. holy fighters are going to attack the way one writes or speaks, creativly under their soon to be writen, and all ready sacred law of hatespeach, even one of their own. This is the land of free speach, not the land of what the libreals think is ok at time to get them somewhere speach. This has happened before....do you rememder....Lot of pepole died....about 75 years ago.....ringing any bells....

Actually I give Matthews the benefit of the doubt on this. Obviously it was hyperbole, maybe innappropriate but nonetheless hyperbole. It's infotainment - whaddaya want? He's on for an hour a day, 5 days a week and has horrible ratings. It's a screamfest and he wants to attract viewers.

Yes, it would have been hilaious to see the reaction if Matthews said something like "he left Alito's wife drowning in her own tears."

But, I am noticing that on the bigger left-wing sites they are really going after not only Matthews, but Russert and any other journalist who is not strictly adhering to the Democratic party line. I know they have been doing this, but as of late it has really intensified.
