An old wound has been opened and can't be covered up without exposure to clean air.

I didn't notice that...even though Chris Matthews joked about giving them uniforms.

But I did notice that little grimace at the very beginning from Karen Finney when Chris Matthews introdcued her as a descendent of Robert E. Lee.

For a second I thought she was experiencing a gas attack. I guess it is part of her heritage that she could do without.

He said" "This woman is an...IDIOT!!!"

My thanks to HARDBALL and "I" chant (pray) that it helps the concerned (?!?)public's to think about something must be done about this besides making this a few days to concerns of the public at large, because this did not just happen with this governor and it will not end with this governor by the public doing the same thing and expecting a CHANGE. (smile)

i LIKED HIS QUESTION ON WHO WOULD THE TOURIST BE AS PRICELESS... remember how the down fall of all of these same talking points is just ask one question and it all fall right apart each and every time..now please Clark andcow tell me you have an opinion on sister Sarah and her speech today...I took this as these people are getting a little tired of this same old same old pep talks. (smile)

I am listening to Matthews right now as usual asking questions. lol...

I SURE DID Brother Cow, calling her an "idiot" was Keith being kind to Sister Sarah.lol (smile)

HOw long before even they will try and get some new talking points...I am sure it was not just me taht this crowd today was not like her other crowds or maybe thse are just the majority of the same people going on this trip and hearing the same things over and over...

Oh, Ron Paul tonight was kind when asked a question about the qualification of Sister Sarah as Keith has named her...he said "she is a little undereducated"...lol
