Chris Matthews of PMSNBC’s Screwball, he of the tingly leg fame, just entered tinfoil hat country with a rant about how the “the pro militarist party of the far right” is trying to orchestrate a military coup d’etat a la Seven Days In May against Our Lord and Savior.
Never mind that the military has always been good followers of the civilian command.
From David Forsmark at Newsreal:
Chris Matthews blurted out a paranoid fantasy on Monday night–Republicans who fillibuster Obama’s agenda are plotting a military coup of the United States government!
MATTHEWS: I know who it helps. It helps the very far right, the very far right, the pro militarist party of the far right, the Seven Days in May types, who would like to see democracy fail so they can have absolute control over the government and begin the move so far to the right!
Wow. Somebody borrowed Keith Olbermann’s tinfoil hat this week…
If Chris Matthews knows of United States Senators who are plotting to bring down the government with a military coup, he needs to actually make some news on his pathetic little show and name names. Right now. Or shut the hell up.
Once again, with a lineup consisting of Mr. Tingly Leg, The Olbertard and Rachel Madcow, does PMSNBC really have to wonder why its nightly audience can fit into a phone booth?
Even discerning dogs and houseplants want the remote when this stuff comes on the TV.
