Matalin to Libby: Wilson a "snake," and Russert hates Matthews

The letters thread is now closed.

But dear Mary Matalin LOVES snakes!

After all, she's on record (the Charlie Rose program, I think) admitting that "Snakehead" is a pet name she has for her husband, James Carville. So calling Wilson a "snake" may not be derogatory.

Maybe Carville should watch out -- Wilson's hair is way more attractive than his bald head -- Mary might have the hots for the former ambassador!

I still can't believe they're still married.

How can he stand her? Seriously?

Who's the snake?

It would never occur to the serpents in the Bush Admin that Wilson was motivated BY THE TRUTH! It's such an alien concept to them, it never even crossed their reptilian minds.

Go Tim - Glad to see Wilson's OpEd not referred to as a "criticism" of Bush!

Everybody uses the "criticism" word - even John Stewart in his 'recap' last night.

I hate the "criticism" word when applied to Wilson's OpEd. Wilson uncovered a lie in the President's SOTU speech. If you're immune to the L-word, you can say that Wilson cited a crucial factual error in Bush's speech, and did so with authority.

Anyhow, it was refreshing - well, actually, a relief! - to see you refer to the piece as "Joseph Wilson's what-I-didn't-find-in-Niger Op-Ed." ---- All the best, Tim.

Who cares?

Why should I care what Mary Matalin and Tim Russert think about anything? Echo chamber, echo chamber, echo chamber.

If a half wit ideologue like Mary Matalin

called me "a snake," I'd put it on my resume.

Mary Matalin is a Special Kind of Liar

Like Lynn Cheney, Mary Matalin is that special kind of liar known as a BS Artist.

These Publicans don't care what the truth is, they just want you to believe them, whatever they say.
