Chris Matthews — still a skunk after all these years

I gave up on Chris Matthews way back in late 2000, during the presidential recount controversy. Like a lot of other political junkies, I was glued to the television set during those fateful 35 days in November and December, starting with election day, Nov. 7, and continuing through to Dec. 13, when Al Gore conceded following the Supreme Court’s disgraceful decision in Bush v. Gore.

At first, the major networks were all over the story — lots of talk of constitutional crisis and all that. But as the drama wore on, they naturally moved back to less civic, and more profitable, fare: The only option left to the true junkie was cable news, CNN, MSNBC and, of course, good old Fox — on second thought, let’s not even go there. So I spent a lot of time staring at Matthews (not something I would recommend) who not only left absolutely no doubt as to where he stood on the controversy — 100% with Bush — but who did so in an insufferable, contemptuous and arrogant fashion.

I couldn't have said it any better myself!

Peace.
