Al Franken next on Hardball!!

Bill Press was just on talking about his new book "Bush Must Go". Matthews was very polite and agreed with him on a number of points. He didn't contradict him once that I recall. It's a good night on HB. Go Tweety go! :D

5. I thought Tweety's comment about lying was ridiculous

He argued that you had to know someone's soul to know if they were lying.

16. Tweet just said Clark is one of the three choices for VP.

Clark, Edwards, and Gep (I think). Unfortunately he seems to favor Edwards. :cry: Franken said any of them would be fine choices. I still think the choice between another senator who voted for *'s bogus war versus a general, former supreme commander of NATO, who didn't support the Iraqi war, yet who won a successful war against genocide with not one American casualty is a no brainer in Clark's favor.

20. How did Chris Matthews get a gig as a "journalist"?

this guy is an effin' joke.

Stupidest damn questions reveal he hasn't got a clue.

(AM is a weaker signal, right?) .. what an ass.

22. Great analysis of Hannity and Colmes - the Harlem Globetrotters

Colmes is always supposed to lose. Hannity is the Globetrotters.

23. Al sends multiple shots over Matthews' head.

Boy is he self-absorbed and vacuous some times. Al's a little too quick for him.
