Allahpundit cannot believe that the talking head is sufficiently mind-numbingly stupid so as to say on national television that Governor Sarah Palin can’t read:
…Allahpundit, despite his dour demeanor, is surprisingly willing to believe the best of people at times. I respect that: but the Politico is under no such illusions about the talking head’s meaning, and neither am I. The talking head has notoriously taken sides with regard to the new administration, and in the final analysis I don’t see where there’s much difference whether that the talking head is malicious, or whether it is simply a fool.
Either way, I think that decent people should start reassessing their need to appear on the talking head’s program. Or their need to watch it.

Hey Matthews, upset you can’t get someone as beautiful and intelligent as Sarah Palin so you have to bash her, if she can’t read, then how come she has Governed her state better then any other Alaskan Governor, and last night’s speech, SHE WROTE IT HERSELF U JERK!!
No... WRONG....

But liberals can be counted on to take heed to these low life’s.
On the other hand Al Franken, failed comedian and and failed radio host, is welcome to the Senate. So much for qualifications, consistency, and sanity.

Seriously, this is approaching a new level of underhanded tactics. Though I figure the MSM is going to be suffering from PBDS (post-bush depression syndrome) so they will be looking to undermine the credibility of any nationally prominent Conservative they can, to avoid losing their sense of purpose.

baseketball (Diary) Friday, January 23rd at 10:31PM EST (link)Moe, I’m not sure where you’re from, but up here in NY “If (s)he can read and write, (s)he’ll make a million” is not an uncommon expression regarding a famous person’s book, the basic idea being that everybody will buy it no matter how good it is, the author is famous enough that people will buy it regardless of its quality, all the author has to do is be able to read and write well enough to put some words on a page. I’m sure you’ll agree, this is true of Sarah Palin. Just look at the ratings from her TV appearances! I agree with Chris Mathews, if she can read and write she can make quite a pile of money. As for “Who’s going to write the book”…has any politician besides Goldwater ever written their own book? Mathews seems to think Obama has, but I think it was intended as a crack about politicians in general/a pro-Obama comment than anything directed against Palin.
Actually, I'm from NJ; worked in the City for five years.

I said, "stop apologizing." Oh, and next time? Check to see whether your "not uncommon expression..."

I don’t know which NY you are living in. I live in upstate NY and I am yet to meet an illiterate person. Chris Matthews is a laughing stock for his stupidity. I am sure this fellow will eat s*** to get an interview with Gov. Sarah Palin.

Janice Cantore Friday, January 23rd at 11:10PM EST (link)Only Obama can write? He wrote that horrible, cliche ridden, sorry excuse for an inauguration speech. I was on vacation in Australia in Nov 2007, some locals engaged me in conversation about the upcoming presidential race and they asked me about the One and if I had read his book. I said that I had not, and they both said they had and they could not figure out what all the fuss was about. It was not a very good book, they told me, not coherent or interesting, why does everyone think that guy is so smart, they asked. Why indeed.

Why does Matthews Hate Strong Women
Rapunzel46 Friday, January 23rd at 11:54PM EST (link)I’m reminded of his sneak attack on Michelle Malkin on his program… just as rude and uncalled for as this attack on Palin… yet he gets a thrill down his leg over Obama…. hmmmmmm
He sure does have a problem with strong women
Elizabeth Christian (Diary) Saturday, January 24th at 1:47AM EST (link)and great point – Obama gives him tingly feelings down his leg – hmmm is Chrissy Mathews coming out the closet?

Obama can read but not think - he has to have a teleprompter
Elizabeth Christian (Diary) Saturday, January 24th at 1:44AM EST (link)Sarah Palin on the other hand can read, write, think, and guess what she can deliver an awesome speech (even when the teleprompter went down).
What Obama would have sounded like if his teleprompter went down:
Uh, well, hmm, well, you see (oh wait that is Princess Kennedy), (back to Obama) well, ha ha ha (he does that nervous laugh when he is lost), uh!!!
Part of Obama’s problem is he is lost without a teleprompter (or someone feeding him a prepared answer) and he is trying to keep his left wing liberal socialist agenda in his head and not coming out of his mouth – he tries to sound in the center but all the while thinking about all the liberal things he could do.
Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both.

As for the talking head, time will tell how wrong and bigoted they are with respect to Sarah Palin and the rest of the conservatives.
They are now treating us like lepers. Fortunately, I’m already IMMUNE with their sarcasms. Anyway, the feeling is mutual and in my case, they are far worse than lepers…. the MSM are leaches.
