Poll question: How many minutes of Chris Matthews can you withstand?
Damn, I had to get out of my chair in the sun to change the channel on the PC!
I'm ticked about listening to that mindless chatter. Where did Keith go??

1. I watch his show. Voluntarily. Fear me... or something.

2. That depends on how long you can survive without oxygen.

Chris Matthews has been known to suck all the air out of a room on many an occasion.

7. I refuse to watch anyone who asks a question and interrupts in three seconds.
He's annoying beyond words, and his penchant for mindless verbosity makes me want to choke the living shit out of him.

15. He was interrupting everyone, talking right over them, and he was unbearable.
Someone should steal his java, or switch the good stuff for decaf :rofl:

17. I wish someone would say "Chris, why don't you just ask and answer the questions, without a guest?"

8. I can't stand his voice.
Then again, I usually mute the news when the sports segment comes up simply because I don't like anyone that hopped up and excited. It annoys the hell out of my curmudgeon ass. That's what Tweety reminds me of: a sports announcer. We have one local weather guy who has that same annoying tone in his voice. I can't wait until they move him to sports so I don't have to hear him any more.

9. I haven't watched him once since election day
Edited on Tue Jan-20-09 05:45 PM by aint_no_life_nowhere
I just don't find him that insightful. I'll watch him for the theatrical spectacle if he bashes Michelle Bachman again or another right winger, but I don't look to him for great words of wisdom as he usually just rehashes what we already know.

14. He's more stream of consciousness than Dennis Miller
Keith Olbermann was probably afraid they'd have to muzzle Tweety a few times this afternoon.
