Chris Matthews: Obama Sends “The Same Thrill Up My Leg, All Over Me”

video
» 86 comments

President Obama may be sinking in the polls, looking at big midterm losses in both the House and Senate, and “fiddling while Rome burns” but he hasn’t lost his thrilling touch where Chris Matthews is concerned.

On Hardball tonight, following a clip of Obama speaking at a campaign stop in 2008 about his working class upbringing and hope, Matthews had this to say:

“You know, I get the same thrill up my leg, all over me, every time I hear those words. I’m sorry, ladies and gentlemen, that’s me.”

Yes it is. Watch below.

    This is getting so pathetic, it’s difficult to even comment anymore. At least he apologizes this time……

  • Big_F-ing_Deal

    Geez Chris, how can you be so emotional about inspiring words in praise of this great country and the American dream?

    Obviously he needs to be shot.

  • timzank

    Imagine the poor bastards that have to clean his chair everynight after he’s splooged himself while idolizing Teh One.

    Who cares about Chris Matthews.
    That guy is one step away from being caught on the show “to catch a predator”
    Pedophile written all over his face!

  • ChuckfromTacoma

    Now and then, you come across a one minute, fifty second video clip that just makes you want or need to puke. This is one of those clips. Where the hell do those few hundred thousand people that watch this guy spew his crap on a daily basis come from?

  • Calvin

    Great, Chris. Thanks for apologizing for making me lose my lunch. Really appreciate it.

  • notsofast

    “Has anyone seen Chris?”

    “Yeah, he is back under BHO’s desk again.”

    Does Chris Matthews wear a blue dress like his predecessor?

    If Sean Hannity used masturbatory rhetoric in describing his praise of George Washington or anybody else, you would say he needed to be shot.

  • JimBob

    I DON”T think I would have SAID that a second time !
    Chris, see a urologist. At your advanced age it could very well be BPH !
    That could be “TINKLE” down your leg you are feeling..

  • notsofast

    Ever since Barry’s inauguration, Chris’ mouth has gotten rounder and rounder.

  • JimBob

    Oh my gosh, I didn’t see that part of “tingles”
    quote” .. Now he includes thrills “ALL OVER ME” !
    Man this is geting weird …..

    The left wants to preserve freedom to build something (Mosque) and the right wants to preserve freedom to burn something (Qur’an).

    Overall that sums up the two sides pretty accurately overall.

    Chris is infamous for a remark of praise, Beck is most famous for an insult. There lies the difference.

  • Big Eddie

    Matthews , Grayson and Schultz , the 3 leaders of the Democrat party , spell big trouble for 2012 .

  • newzmaker

    I wonder why Chris didn’t get a thrill, when Sharpton or Jackson ran for president. I hope Chris is racist toward the darker blacks. Al should ask Chris what he has against dark chocolate.

    As usual all the right can think about is race, even when it has nuthin to do with the topic.

    This is the way all teaturds think.

  • Rogue-Comic

    Here’s BFD’s comment @ 6:27 pm sans the spin:

    Both sides HAVE to preserve the freedom to build something (Mosque) and the freedom to burn something (Qur’an).

    Both can question the wisdom of either though.

    Chris is known for just about nothing, and Beck is famous for being a rodeo clown.

    There lies the difference.

    That’s not what Newt says. He says it has to stopped at all costs, either on the city, state or federal level.
    He wants it declared a battlefield, maybe that will help stop it. That doesn’t sound like preserving freedom to me, that sounds like circumventing it.

    Your side doesn’t give a shit about freedom. Never has. Except the freedom to do whatever the fuck you want.

  • Smeg

    You know, thrills are relative, and looking at Chris Matthews I can sadly imagine that listening to Barack Obolshevik spew his crap is the greatest thrill that freak ever had. I’m just glad that I’m not as pathetic as that.

    Hard to figure out which one will get fired first — Keith Olbermann, Rachel Maddow or Chris Matthews. Each one has experienced a 50% decline in audience over the last two years. But with comments like this one, Matthews emerges as my odds-on favorite in the race to the unemployment line.

  • Big_F-ing_Deal

    Keep in mind that my first comment in this thread was pretty straight forward, with a “Blow” me reply from the right.
    Of course no one calls that out.

    I’m not gonna bring a knife to a gun fight. Call out you own side or stop whining like punk-ass bitches when you get the same in return.

    Your comment at 6:45 tells a different story, and Newt doesn’t speak for me.

    All the personal insults came from you; all I did was question whether you would apply the same logic of your 1st comment to a partisan pundit on the other side. And I’m a social liberal fiscal conservative.

    By the why; how much hope has this idiot given us. If the US Gov would print the real unemployment numbers, we’re looking at 25% unemployment. As Rick Sanchez said, our “cotton pickin president” is MO lasses slow on the Healin.

    Yep! The left wants to support Muslim terrorism again. Anything that tears down America, you can find libs supporting it!

    What did libs do right after 9/11? Develop and propagate falsehoods that 9/11 was done by the US government, not terrorists.

    just like i get choked up every time i hear the national anthem sung really well at the beginning of ball games…
    just like i got choked up when bush said no matter what it takes we will get the ones who attacked us…
    i ask again, why don’t you love America?

    “If Sean Hannity used masturbatory rhetoric in describing his praise of George Washington or anybody else, you would say he needed to be shot.”

    But what the hell, you seem like a nice guy. I’m sorry I called you names.
    I will make a mental note that you’re one of the good ones. :)

  • Michael_T

    So Chris Matthews ill-advisedly used a corny phrase to describe the fact that he was overcome with emotion. When you strip away the hate for the person, or his politics, is there really any shame in what he expressed?

    I still remember the emotion I felt when President Bush grabbed that bullhorn from on top of the rubble after 9/11.

    I also was overcome with that same pride and emotion at some of the inspirational speeches President Obama has given.

    I’ll take a message of “hope & inspiration” over the politics of hate and divisiveness every time. If some want to use corny phrases (or even tears) to described their feelings – whether it’s Mr. Mathews or Mr. Beck – it should be applauded and not ridiculed.

  • ChiliPeppersFan

    and the speech was about what a great country we live in and how someone who devoted his life to helping those who are largely ignored can overcome the odds of having a different name and become a united states senator eventually becoming the president
    about how we as a country need to work together to make this country greater than it is right now not by picking sides but by working together
    and this is mocked by people on the right? give me a break
    the right will do anything to see the president fail and if that includes tearing down this country even more than bush did they seem to be fine with that

  • mkallmanga

    No one will ever say to Chris, “Gee Chris, how do you really feel?”.

    I find it amusing to see him get more bothered every day as things look worse for the democrats.

    This is more creepy than the first time he said it. And every time I’ve heard Matthews speak, I always thought he talked with spit dripping down the side of his lip, but I guess that really wasnt spit…

    Can anybody point out a specific point when Matthews lost any semblance of professional pride and just became babbling, blithering moron.
    As a right of Reagan conservative, I still had respect for Chris Matthews over the years. He has not yet turned in to a BFD or Real Royal King Richard, but has lost any respect that many of us might have held for him.

    Democratic Conventions (2)
    Election Night
    Speech on “Race in America”
    Speaking at a campaign stop in 2008 about his working class upbringing and hope

    Obviously, judging b the obvious sarcasm in your comment, you are going to disagree.

    But you asked a question – and I answered it.

    I could have made a personal attack instead. But I will leave that to other posters here of which there are far too many.
