Chris Matthews: Brown-nose Commando of the "Liberal Media"

Here's the host of Hardball on the day W "landed a plane" on the USS Abraham Lincoln and declared an end to major combat operations in Iraq (the link has so much more):

"We're proud of our president. Americans love having a guy as president, a guy who has a little swagger, who's physical, who's not a complicated guy like Clinton or even like Dukakis or Mondale, all those guys, McGovern. They want a guy who's president. Women like a guy who's president. Check it out. The women like this war. I think we like having a hero as our president. It's simple."

Of course, this is coming from the same guy who said a month ago that if W's gamble to create a democracy in Iraq works, then "he belongs on Mt. Rushmore." I guess Truman and Marshall get a fruit basket for creating two.

Mr. Matthews, the President's proctologist just called. He says he's found your glasses.
