Chris Matthews the Hypocrite Slams Sarah Palin

Does anyone take Chris Matthews seriously anymore?

First, the NBC/MSNBC yelling head, swooned over Barack Obama, saying he got a "tingling feeling" up and down his leg when Obama speaks. (If I was Barack Obama, I'd steer clear of the tingly legged one.)

Then he gets tanked off the MSNBC 2008 election show because of his ego cat fights with Kieth Olbermann. (Keith gets all tingly over Obama too so they were fighting over the same guy.)

Now Chris Matthews is mocking Sarah Palin for doing national interviews. Matthews recently introduced sound clips from Palin from the John Zeigler interview and said that this is "“the vice presidential campaign that won’t end."

But wait, now we find out that Matthews had called Sarah Palin's office just a couple of days before and asked for an interview himself.

This is what the Governor of Alaska's spokesman Bill McAllister had to say about it -



“If it’s so objectionable, why do you want to interview her?” McAllister asks. “This is the double standard we get from a lot of people in the media. I could put her on any TV program you could imagine. She’s being treated as if she’s out there trying to garner all this publicity; we turn stuff down every day. We turn down dozens of things every day. We get invitations all the time for her to speak at various events, either of a partisan or conservative nature or whatever; she’s not doing that. She’s here. She put out a budget. She’s got a State of the State address she’s going to deliver in less than two weeks. It’s not that she’s commenting, it’s that it seems like the national media will just gobble up anything Palin.”

Chris Matthews is acting like the kid in High Schhol who bad mouths the pretty girl who turned him down for the prom.

Sarah Palin is the hottest "get" in the country right now. She is being being very selective. Glenn Beck, John Zeigler, Esquire Magazine and Alaska media have been able to get interviews. But Chris Matthews, well, he has that OTLS, Obama Tingly Leg Syndrome. I can see why Sarah passed.
