Last week Chris Matthews called Michele Bachmann a “balloon head.”
Suddenly! Virgin ears and sensitive constitutions.
From a network that took part in the fake baby Trig speculation that occurred when Sarah Palin first appeared on the national stage, WTF is suddenly “juvenile.” It’s not juvenile, it’s hysterical and an obvious joke. When did progs become such clenched cheek, non-humorists? I thought conservatives were supposed to be stiff and unfunny. Geez. Stop stealing our stereotypes!
Later in the broadcast the political equivalent of Chris Kattan’s character from “Night at the Roxbury,” Alan Grayson, says “STFU.” Matthews response?
“Oh. Oh yeah. I got cha. ‘Stop talking’ in crude language.”
Right-o then.
