YOU DECIDE

Viewer Discretion Advised

This was just painful to watch. Chris Matthews skewered a hapless state senator from Texas during last night's primary election coverage. I don't think we'll be seeing this guy trotted out as an Obama surrogate again any time soon:

I suspect this is a bit of a Rorschach test. Depending on your perspective, it's proof that Obama is a lightweight, just goes to show what a gasbag Matthews is, or appeals to the same voyeuristic instinct that makes you slow down and gawk at a car accident. --David Kurtz

k.b.: I say 50/50. No doubt, in my opinion, Chris Matthews is a gasbag but. If Obama is your man and you're speaking for him on national tv, then you should know as much as you can about his history both in and out of politics. There's no excuse for that.

Tell Us What You Really Think

Clinton surrogate and Machinists union President Tom Buffenbarger: "Give me a break! I've got news for all the latte-drinking, Prius- driving, Birkenstock-wearing, trust fund babies crowding in to hear him speak! This guy won't last a round against the Republican attack machine. He's a poet, not a fighter." --Josh Marshall

k.b.: Yep, that's me. Just the other day I withdrew money from my trust fund, ran down to the dealership, picked up my new Prius and had time to stop at Starbucks for a Primo Grande Mocha Latte to celebrate. Oh and one other thing, it's really hard to do that I own a Prius celebration dance in your Birkenstocks.

America The Stupid


Kellie Pickler Are You Smarter Than A Fifth Grader? Obviously not.


And let's not forget this answer provided by Miss South Carolina from the Miss Teen USA 2007 contest.


Random House; "Disdain for logic and evidence defines a pervasive malaise fostered by the mass media, triumphalist religious fundamentalism, mediocre public education, a dearth of fair-minded public intellectuals on the right and the left, and, above all, a lazy and credulous public."

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Celebrity bounty hunter Duane "Dog" Chapman is set to return to television after his reality TV show was pulled from the air three months ago in a controversy over his use of a racial slur, cable channel A&E said on Tuesday.
