Why Does Sarah Palin Make Chris Matthews Nervous?

Although presented subtly, Chris Matthews treated us to another anti-Sarah Palin, anti-Second Amendment exclusive, via the “Sideshow” video blog segment of his program Hardball last evening. What caught Matthews’ ire this time was that Palin had received an award from the NRA (National Rifle Association) for gun collecting, as well as accolades for her strong support of a citizen’s constitutional right to bear arms.
It was only last month, Matthews reminds us, that Palin made the following “rallying cry†during her farewell speech as Governor of Alaska, which launched the opening salvo of her pro-gun “crusadeâ€:
You are going to see anti-hunting, anti-Second Amendment circuses from Hollywood. Stand strong and remind them that Patriots will protect our individual, guaranteed right to bear arms; and by the way, Hollywood needs to know: we eat, therefore, we hunt.
Palin received her award at an NRA event in Alaska this past weekend, thereby taking the next step in her pro-gun crusade, according to Matthews. Quoting from the NRA website, Matthews sneered contemptuously while telling his viewers how Palin “was presented with the NRA’s Gold Medal Award of Merit for the Promotion of Gun Collecting. It’s an award that has only been bestowed twice in the last decade.” “It’s a bad day for moose,” said Matthews.
It may or may not be a bad day for moose, but Matthews is certainly nervous about something.
Could it be that he is worried that it may also be a bad day for Barack Obama and those Democrats who want to restrict access to guns?
Could it be that the root cause of Matthews’ nervousness is an acute awareness of Palin’s genuine connection with the average American, whose views are in line with hers when it comes to the Second Amendment?
Could it be that Chris Matthews — who last year, while covering the presidential race, proudly proclaimed in a spirited interview that he opposes the idea of concealed carry permits and wants the “people to be disarmed,†— is afraid of Sarah Palin?
It would seem that the answer is yes.

Hurray for Sarah! Out with garbage from Chris! These left wing bigots are like termites in our society and should be treated like termites. They improve nothing, and undermine what is good.
It’s not just Chris (Tingle) Matthews who is nervous about Sarah Palin, it’s 0bama and the whole Democrat Party. That is why there is such a concerted effort to marginalize her 3 years ahead of the next election. They saw the thousands and tens of thousands of people who would turn out for her rallies and wait for hours on end in the rain, the heat, and even the cold. When Sarah Palin’s op/ed on cap and trade appeared in the Washington Post a few weeks ago, the DNC enlisted 2 senators, 1 congressman, and MoveOn.org to go on the attack. It wasn’t because she said anything much different than what had been expressed before by other opponents of cap and trade, it was because none of the other opponents command the attention that Palin gets.
We’ve seen endless attempts to smear Palin and her family, much of it via anti-Palin bloggers in Alaska. You only have to watch the “EthicsGate” video to see the close and continuing relationship between the anti-Palin bloggers, the “ethics” complaint filers, the Alaska Dem Party, and the 0bama administration. The bloggers and the dems have attempted to keep this off the net, and were successful for a time, but now it’s back up at YouTube, and a number of blogs have posted it.

In the last few days we have seen the unmasking of one of the most vile of the anti-Palin bloggers, Gryphen of the Immoral Minority. Among other things, he is responsible for the Palin “divorce” smear.

But, Gryphen (Jesse Griffin) is just the tip of the iceberg, and just puts on display for all those who care to see, just how low the 0bama administration is willing to take political discourse. It is all part of the culture of corruption ushered in by the Mayor Daley Chicago Machine crowd of 0bama/Axelrod/Emmanuel.
‘RoundUp’ is Right ! Viva Sarah Palin !
“Why Does Sarah Palin Make Chris Matthews Nervous?”
Well obviously, he gets a numb feeling in his leg when she speaks.
Ronald Reagan is returning, this time as a leading lady. Go Sarah! Barney Fag, Queen Pelosi, and Henry Waxbrain are mini-moose in suits!
I think that Chris Matthews is also afraid or is contemptous of women. He is in love with Obama…, a man?
I find it amazing that with all that is going on in our country (health care, cap and tax, gov’t takeovers, etc.) that hack Chris Matthews can’t keep his mind off what Sarah Palin is doing. Doesn’t he feel any pressure to be a journalist?
Palin doesn’t make me nervous. How can one be nervous about a punk *** quitter who is hates the media but loves it at the same time (just like a celebrity)??
As a takeoff on her “we hunt therefore we eat” , “I tune her the hell out, therefore I don’t think about her ***”!!
LOL
With the campaign trail to begin, there will be no shortage of <a href=http://www.campaignpros.com/political yard signs in every neighborhood.
Why are the left wingers also the ones who use gutter language? They problably didn’t finish their English for beginner’s couse.
Chris Matthews is garbage. I can’t believe any thinking being would watch this clown. He should receive “end of life” counseling from his messiah(yeah, the lower caps were on purpose).
I’ve actually stumbled across this thread blog surfing as everyone else does on Wordpress and happened to have gotten a chuckle from the comments on this one.
Oh and as far as this quote right here “Chris Matthews is garbage. I can’t believe any thinking being would watch this clown. He should receive “end of life†counseling from his messiah(yeah, the lower caps were on purpose).”
Chris Matthews is a joke. That is the one thing I will agree with you on. Yet I really can do a remix on that quote to say “Fox news is garbage. I can’t believe & I’m baffled any thinking person would watch the daily circus/siticom episodes of those clowns & their respective shows and take what they say & the right wing pundits seriously. All of those clowns & right wing pundits should receive “end of life” counseling from Queen Sarah, The “I Want My America Back” whiners and the Town Hall hell raisers as well as those conservative politicians and conservative groups such as Conservatives for Patients Rights and Americans for Prosperity (who think they know what is best for American not offering any real ideals on the healthcare crisis because they too busy in the pockets of the health care industry)!!! LOL
Well I have to say, if you have not seen the sarcastic poster hanging in almost every independent gun store in America, then you are missing the real bonanza here! Some folks have even gone so far as to install this bit of sarcasm in elaborate frames to further increase the sarcastic effect;-)
There are several iterations but basically they all say the same thing, Barack Hussein Obomber continues to be their number one source of business! This so true that even very cautious businessmen I know are opening a gun store from scratch! One of their very first orders came from a professional executive for an AK-47 w/ plenty of mags and ammo! Go figure!
Oh yeah, Sarah Palin is a juggernaut. Really though. I am sure Barack Obama is losing sleep every night. Sincerely.
Or perhaps the fact that she abandoned her post as governor for no better reason than to go on a book tour would give even the dimmest voter pause. She may be a rootin’ tootin’ pitbull with lipstick, but she’s a quitter too, and America can’t abide a quitter.
Good luck for the Republican nomination in 2012 Sarah! That would effectively cripple the GOP forever. Long live the… Libertarians? Rhinoceros Party? Whatever.
This is to Ediva75 and the rest of you guys who drink the Obama cool aide. I love the way Sara Palin send you all into spasms. But get your facts straight before you go blogging that she quit the Governor’s seat in order to go on a book tour. The truth is when she ran for VP her approval polls in Alaska was at 90%. She had a good working relationship with Dems as well as Reps. When she resumed her duties, certain enemies began a campaign to destroy her politically and personally with false and bogus ethics charges. Alaska does not provide it’s Governor with free council so she had to pay out of pocket to defend herself from each charge. Of all the charges she fought, she was cleared of any wrong doing, yet the charges kept coming, and would have kept coming until they bankrupted her. She had already spent 500,000 on legal council which was more than she had earned in 2 years as Governor. In addition to that the McCain camp billed her 50,000 for the vetting process which she paid out of her own pocket. Anyone can file an ethics charge against any public official for any reason. It’s up to the official to defend themselves. Each charge required her to supply documentation sometimes up to 1000 pages. The constant process of defense was taking her away from her duties of Governor. No wonder the lady stepped away. No one should have to be put through all that just because she took a stand against Obama and his policies. Now the lady is free to speak her mind and tell it like it is with out fear of yet another ethics charge. I say GO SARA! I personally hope she makes millions on her book as repayment for all she and her family have had to endure. She represents millions of us ordinary, hard working, common sense Americans who hate what the liberal left is doing to our country. I would vote for her any day, any time. We’re in the time that was prophesied enons ago: “The day will come when men will say evil is good and good is evil”. I feel sorry for all you who are so blinded you can not or will not see truth.
The “Barney Fag” wasn’t necessary… Surely there are plenty of better insults one could come up with that one needn’t go there.
Apparently you do think about her or you wouldn’t be posting here.

You got him another non sensical comment from a hater.
They have offered plenty of ideas you just do not want to hear them. They are tort reform, allowing insurance companies to compete in all states and stopping the multi million dollars scam to the tune of thirty million dollars a day in medicare and medicaide fraud. I suppose you want to see national healthcare ala Canada and England. Well I have seen it and no thanks.
