On the day after the President's SOTU address, Matthews opens his show with 20 minutes on Chris Christie. And he warns he'll have more later in the show on Christie.
I used to think he was doing a fair job, but he has now reached the Nancy Grace level of tabloid TV.

Christie is much more relevant to American politics than Obama, so Matthews' editorial decision is actually justifiable in this case.

The is predictably sliming any potential GOP candidate in order to poison his reputation before 2016 comes around. Besides, progs can't really defend what Obama said last night - what are they gonna say, that they're proud Obama turned the presidency into a dictatorship? But two things:
1. Being attacked by Tingles is actually an endorsement
2. Why the hell are you watching that retard?

A Congressman that calls out Rachael Madcow for what she is. This is awesome...
RACHEL MADDOW: Did you vote to cut diplomatic security facilities and their security before the Benghazi incident?
REP. TIM HUELSKAMP (R-KANSAS): No, we had passed additional security measures, as requested by the administration, but don’t forget, the facts of the matter is Hillary Clinton did not request security enhancements, and we do believe that this administration let our troops down and let this diplomat down.
We need more answers there, we need answers about a lot of things. This administration promised to be the most transparent in history, Rachel, and I think if you would stop being a cheerleader and be a journalist, you’d recognize we’re not getting those answers.
MADDOW: Did you just call me a cheerleader?
HUELSKAMP: I don’t know, maybe you had that history. I’m saying –
MADDOW: No, wait, wait. Hold on. Hold on.
HUELSKAMP: You’re a cheerleader for the administration; you’re not being a journalist. When you’re not willing to look at the facts. If it was Bush, you would be jumping and screaming.
