@...Bodero: You are the article are full of shit. Here are the actual quotes from Chris Mathews:
“I want to do everything I can to make this thing work, this new presidency work”
“To make this work successfully. This country needs a successful presidency. ”
Sounds good to me. It’s in everyone best interest to have a successful President and a successful country. Why do you hate America?
@...diabeetus: Because Bush was an unsuccessful president. It will be more interesting to see how Fox News changes their tune about “executive privilege”.
Dude c’mon fox news isn’t the only biased news station. We could argue all day in 2000 and 2004 about weather or not bush’s presidency would have been successful(in 2000) or would finish up a fuck up ( as in 2004). You can’t really say it is going to be successful or a failure unless one of the candidates has already been elected into office and has begun toiling away. I mean we can speculate all we want based on their “plans” but that doesn’t mean that is what will happen. It is just stupid to say you endorse a candidate because “they will be successful”. It’s better to just flat out say “Personally i agree with this candidate” then make up some abstract bullshit excuse to cover the fact that you are not objective in your journalism. Don’t get me wrong both sides of the election are guilty of this.
I read it as something like We have a new president-elect. Let’s do all we can to make this a successful presidency, especially considering the circumstances he’s walking into. Bush had a lot of goodwill from the press for years. We wanted what he said to be true. It wasn’t. The press holds some responsibility for that.
Beats Bill O’Reilly, Sean Hannity and Mike Huckabee. From Politics to Fox News Pundit, way to go Huckabee.
The guy who thinks it is his journalistic duty to make sure Obama is a success?

Chris Matthews only wants a successful presidency when a Democrat is in office.
Why did Matthews treat Bush so differently?

@The Matrix: Rebooted: Why are you a stupid piece of shit?
Inquiring minds want to know.
Can’t watch him for too long, he’s got that excessive mouth moisture thing going on.
I like men in suits. Though excessive mouth moisture does not sound good.

Question: Is Mathews a democrat? I din’t quite get that impression. Serious, not trolling.
Yes, Chris Matthews is a former aide to Democratic Speaker of the House Tip O’Neil and a former presidential speechwriter. Very much a democrat.
@...Bodero: Hahah, Tippy Tippy Toenail, fond memories…he blowed up real good.
