Tonight on HARDBALL: Birthergate!
Good thing the Administration shamed the media into dealing with real issues.

1. Hardball has debunked birtherism from Day One. CNN on the other hand amplified it

That is the difference. I am sure the President is happy for Matthews to expose birtherism for what it is.

I think his quarrel was with News Organizations who uncritically promoted Trump, et all and presented Birtherism as it it were possibley true. It is the media's job to debunk this kind of crap, not promote it.

2. Tweety does not the media make
Nor is he a journalist. He's just an infotainment personality on cable. He's in the same league as Chris Hansen.

5. I been doing a lot of screaming about the phony birther thing,
also. Who are ya' calling a jerk? I don't blame Tweety at all and he's got it right about the racist ignoramouses. Self serving ignoramous #1 Trump comes along and adds to the shit that this country is going through. That ass may have money but that doesn't mean he is interested in the welfare of US citizens let alone the smarts he claims to have..
