Conservative radio host Mark Levin is threatening to sue Chris Matthews and anyone else who he feels is accusing him of having helped foment to political violence.

The impetus for Levin's threat was a statement Matthews made about him on his Tuesday show. Matthews had cited
him and fellow right wing radio host Michael Savage as examples of incendiary media figures promoting ugly rhetoric--something that has come under scrutiny in the wake of the Arizona shootings.

"Every time you listen to them, they are furious," he said. "Furious at the left. With anger that just builds and builds in their voice and by the time they go to commercial they are just in some rage every night with some ugly talk. Ugly sounding talk and it never changes."

In response, Levin laid down a challenge to Matthews.

"I challenge Chris Matthews, I'll put $100,000 on the table, to find any example where Sarah Palin has promoted the murder of anybody," Levin said, though he added that calling for the killing of terrorists didn't count.

1. What a pathetic ass

[damntexdem]

18. Yes, and threatening another pathetic ass.

Tweety may be better than Levin, but he's still a pathetic ass.

[nadinbrzezinski]

2. Actually yes, let's go there

Tweethy should use Schotastic Terrorism as part of his defense.

3. so levin wants to deny chris matthews of his 1st amendment rights? these bozo's are hilarious

[malaise]

12. First amendment rights only belong to the patriotic

aka ReTHUGS :rofl:

[spanone]

16. dagnabbit, i always forget that

:D

[StarlightGold]

4. Who????

Is he someone important? Someone who matters? Can someone fill me in?

[GSLevel9]

6. righty talk show host

former Reagan WH insider, constitutional attorney and President of the Landmark Legal Foundation which is best known for nominating Limbaugh for a Nobel Prize.

The difference between Limbaugh, Hannity, Beck, Palin, O'reilly and Levin is about 50 IQ points.

He's s smart guy but a hardcore Repug.

[StarlightGold]

11. Oh yeah

He's on pretty late I think on the staion here...does he have a very whiney voice? If so, I know now who that is.

And again, I ask...someone important? Someone who matters?

[cordelia]

15. Shrill

His voice is so shrill, it'll crack the fillings in your teeth and make dogs howl in pain.

That miserable little prick is angry about something all the time. I listen for a few minutes once in a while just to laugh at him.

[louis-t]

Most of those guys have the same voice.

I hate to generalize, but most I've heard have the same whiny, nasal, shrill tone to their voices. They talk in the upper register, pitch-wise.

[Major Hogwash]

27. Yup, they do. They all sound like they went to a whiny radio school to learn how to do it.

Gunny Bob in Denver was another one of them.
I haven't heard anyone talk about him much since his heart attack a few years ago, so I don't know if that loon is still on the airwaves or not.

We had a guy here in Boise about 5 years ago trying to do his best to imitate Rush Limbaugh, but he was so comical in his attempt, that the radio station canned him.

[louis-t]

28. Mark Scott was the local guy here for awhile.

Same voice. He died a few years ago after getting canned.

[tex-wyo-dem]

29. Yeah...a REALLY annoying voice...

When I heard him the first time I thought it somebody doing a joke voice...sounds like Joe Pesci (sp?) On helium.

The guy is so humble, he refers to himself as "the great one" :puke:

[monmouth]

7. Hahaha, poor Mark, he gets no respect...n/t

[SoCalDem]

24. no respect, no recognition..no-nuttin'

Probably most people don't even know who that wannabee even is:)

[immoderate]

19. To the degree that we are now talking about him...

A friend used to stop inane discussions with, "Does this answer the question,'Who cares?'" The problem is it will stop most discussions.

Levin's a right wing lawyer with some connections and creds that has parlayed it into an income that he can literally phone in. He's part of the right wing wall of sound that comforts those followers after Rush, Beck, and Hannity are through with them. The B Team is Boortz, Savage and Levin. In the world where politics and insanity intersect, Levin is a celebrity.

Fame is kind of relative. How many fans do you need? :)

5. They always change the subject

Tweety never said anything about murder. Yeah, go sue him you dillhole. I hope he countersues for legal fees when the jury backhands you for wasting their time.

[Cleita]

8. I imagine Chris is shaking in his boots...NOT!

What an ass!

[DCKit]

9. By the time this is over, the massacre in Tuscon will have claimed more "victims" than WWII...

mostly Republicans and Tea Baggers.

[eleny]

10. Well, then, let's have a national airing of his rhetoric

let his words hit the tv day and night. Maybe sunshine will bleach the airwaves clean of his dangerous mess.

[Waiting For Everyman]

13. Another one with no conscience, and it's all about him. n/t

[Broderick]

14. He is a public figure

He has no ground to stand on. Stupid.

[Renew Deal]

17. He's going to sue over an opinion?

Good luck with that.

[The Backlash Cometh]

20. I believe this debate needs to continue.

It is a debate worth winning to prove to them how they are inciting violence.

[Romulox]

21. Matthews is as guilty of lowest common denominator politics as anybody, imo.

He was also a "conservator commentator" during 8 years of Bush, imo.

23. thought repugs didnt believe in suing. what about 1st adm. cenorship? words dont matter. nt

[cags]

25. Julian Assange.... Palin said we should go after him like a terrorist. Wheres my 100,000?

[RamboLiberal]

26. Bring it on

:popcorn:

[tex-wyo-dem]

30. dipshit Levin thinks that Palin would have to say "go kill a Democrat" in so many words...

For it to be considered incendiary. I don't think Hitler ever stood on a podium and said Germans should go gas millions of Jews, but most certainly used language that blamed the Jews for the German people's woes...not ulike Limbaugh or Levin spouting shit on the radio blaming "everything that's wrong with our country" on liberals.
