Tweety is beside himself

[CatWoman]

oh, my...

[WI_DEM]

1. Angry about the Mittens lies or Obama's performance?

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

3. Both

[GaYellowDawg]

7. Both. And he's EXACTLY RIGHT.

And I don't know how anyone doesn't see this.

[LibraLiz1973]

14. Chris just said everything that needed to be said

I am so disappointed. I didn't see this coming at all.

What was the President doing?!?!?!?!?!?!

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

2. Sadly, he's right

Any progressive can see this. He let an arrogant bully push him around.

[NotThisTime]

11. Yet when we said it during the debate some said we should be banned

Chris could not be more right

[NYC Liberal]

20. I read the same exact thing about him with McCain in 2008.

[Gregorian]

4. He's all fired up now. Too bad he wasn't fired up when we invaded Iraq, even if he's right.

Mitt wasn't Mitt tonight. He morphed. It took Obama off his balance.

[Lex]

5. He sounds as unhinged as Romney did tonight. nt

[Sparkly]

6. He has some points about the low-hanging fruit Obama didn't take....

and yeah, Obama should watch MSNBC....

Factually, he was absolutely the sane choice. But there were so many opportunities to slash through Rmoney's bullshit that he didn't take.

[vanlassie]

8. He has a history of being em...histrionic.

[City Lights]

9. He's absolutely right!

[Beaverhausen]

10. He should prep Obama for the next debates

[soleft]

12. The whole panel looks grief stricken

[Duppers]

13. I am too

Obama was way off his game tonight and didn't counter most of rMoney's lies.

MR controlled this debate.

[seabeyond]

15. beside himself, pissed, dead on, mad, foaming. anything? what is he pissed about

[immoderate]

19. That Obama didn't show up.

--imm

[seabeyond]

25. oh. ok. thanks. was like 6 threads with nothing. nt

[MiddleFingerMom]

16. So far, it looks like he and Rev Al were the only ones who watched. I agreed strongly with both.

Assuming that "Tweety" is Chris Matthews. I really hate snarky nicknames -- I can't keep up with
the players without a scorecard and they always make me think the conversation is falling to the
level of the "master-in-his-own-mind" of those... Michael Savage.

[CatWoman]

23. you know, I said some time ago that I'd stop calling him that

force of habit, I suppose....

[MiddleFingerMom]

24. I wass pretty sure of that one... but people trying to be clever with obscure or...

.
.

... even worse, their OWN nicknames are a real PITA (pain-in-the-ass... just so you don't
think I'm calling them Middle-Eastern bread equivalents ).

Many years ago, I used to listen to Michael Savage to keep track of the fringe loonies and
he was so self-impressed with his so-called "clever" nicknames that a paragraph of his
script might contain as many as a dozen of them -- and I would have no clue (but for one
or two) who the hell he was talking about. He also appeals to the lowest of the lowest-
common-denominators... so that practice always hints to me of the same sort of level...
no matter who's using it.

17. Agree with Matthews 100%. 100 *^#$%&&* %.

[Champion Jack]

18. I think Larry O Donnel has the better take on it

[shireen]

21. totally agree with Tweety

he and Ed are right. Obama was too subdued, Romney was on fire.

The problem is that debates aren't just about facts, it's also about appearances. Sad but true. Most people don't follow details. So when complex issues with numbers are discussed, how are they supposed to know who's telling lies? During the 90 minutes, they were just trying to keep up with the discussions.

Al's talking right now ... Romney presented articulate lies. Love that Rev!

I'm not worried, tho'. Obama knows he could have done better. He's not going to make the same mistake again. And don't use John Kerry for practice debates, use Chris Matthews!

22. Turned it off...BS on both sides...Mitt was very well organized and Obama, well....
