So, I told everyone that I wasn't going to be able to watch Barack Obama's infomercial live and would have to watch it when I got home. Surely some of you must've seen it already. No warning? No email telling me not to watch it because I'll be bored to tears? Nobody telling me I've already seen this story on Lifetime before?
I will never get those 30 minutes of my life back. Not. Ever. Screw you all.
Meanwhile, Chris Matthews of PMSNBC has a different take. You tell me who the loon is:
I thought it was Hollywood. It was romance. It was realism. The technical quality of it, the production values were perfect, the way they timed going to live, the biographical material. But most important, the connection with the average person in the economic turmoil we face right now I thought was fabulous. Of course, there we see the setting, which is very much like an Oval Office setting, showing that he's comfortable and we should be comfortable and will be with him in such a setting. I thought everything was just right.
I thought, the most important part of it, I thought, was the biographical, showing him talking about his mom and talking about him taking a chance in history and not wanting to miss it having seen his mother die at a young age. It was very human and I think you'd have to be a tough customer not to be touched by it.
Now I know all you Obama supporters have never heard of Jimmy Carter, but let's recall the fact that Matthews was a speechwriter for Jimmy Carter.
