Chris Matthews Tells Liberal Editor: ‘I’m Falling In Love With You’

Chris Matthews has quite a streak going. Earlier this week, he used the term “nut case” while describing Michele Bachmann and suggested “older white people” are racists. At the end of last week he referred to an Obama critic as a “cracker.” He’s ending this week by professing his love for the editor of a liberal website.

During a “Hardball” segment discussing Sen. Joe Lieberman’s (I-CT) decision to retire, Matthews had a private moment with Josh Marshall, the editor and founder of the website Talking Points Memo. After Marshall said that Lieberman must believe that anything’s he done is moral, Matthews could not contain himself: “Josh Marshall, I’m falling in love with you”:

A longer version of the comment (via a transcript from NewsBusters) shows that the two were talking about Lieberman’s comments Thursday regarding his support to invade Iraq:

JOSH MARSHALL, TALKING POINTS MEMO: I think Lieberman believes that if he did it, it must be moral. I think that there’s some of that there, too.

CHRIS MATTHEWS: The voice of the Oracle of Feebs (?). Thank you, sir. Josh Marshall, I’m falling in love with you. That is exactly it. If I’m there, and I’m moral, this is moral. This is going to be fought over in history. I thought Buchanan had the right question for him. I think his answer was unconsidered. Anyway, good luck Joe Lieberman and Hadassah.

As the NB transcript notes, we’re not quite sure what the “Oracle of Feebs” is. There is, however, references in history the Oracle at Delphi in relation to Ancient Greece and made famous by Socrates and Plato.

    Why do people still hire ivy league grads? Working in research for the last 30 years, I’ve had to deal with ivy league graduates all the time, 99% of them think they know more than anyone else because they went to these tough to get into schools and graduated with a 4.0 or real close. When the sad truth is the only real requirement to getting in, is having enough money to buy your way in, and then they let you sale through, cause nobody wants to pay all the money a Dartmouth grad expects that didn’t graduate at the top of their class.

    Between getting a tingle in his leg for Obamma and proclaiming his love for this guy I have some serious doubt about Chris.

    There is something going on with him and for a number of other Left wing radicals. Maybe it is just my imagination but it seems to me that the pace of their outlandish, bizarre, and often hateful comments has really picked up to the point where it seems that it is almost every other day. I don’t know if it is election day defeat shock, losing power, or in Matthews case ratings envy. I think what we are hearing are the sounds of desperate people who just don’t understand why they are losing. I am sure that to them the answer is that people are just too stupid to understand them.

      …oracles of Greek antiquity were Pythia, priestess to Apollo at Delphi, and the oracle of Dione and Zeus at Dodona in Epirus. Only the Delphic Oracle was a female; all others were male. The Sibylline Oracles are a collection of oracular utterances written in Greek hexameters ascribed to the Sibyls, prophetesses who uttered divine revelations in a frenzied state.
