I suppose all black men look alike to MSNBC’s Contessa Brewer

MSNBC’s Contessa Brewer mistakenly refers to Rev  Jesse Jackson as the Rev. Al Sharpton.

This made me laugh

Obnoxious news personality Andrea Mitchell was caught in a very difficult spot at the Republican National Convention.  Reporting from the floor, she fell victim to a swarm of runaway red, white, & blue balloons!

What a journalist!

Wow, I love how the guy backs off at the end!

Uncle Newt Gingrich is interviewed by MSNBC’s Ron Allen at the Republican National Convention, and towards the end Gingrich lays the smack down on a befuddled Allen, who dared push Newt’s buttons about Sarah Palin’s qualifications.

I always like how liberal elites usually look stunned when actually challeneged on their dubious assumptions.  Right on!

Settle down, girls…

There is a little known tv cable news network called MSNBC, and lately there has only been one reason to tune into their programming – the behind-the-scenes feud that occasionally bubbles up to on-screen hijinks!

The two combatants are the irrepressible Chrissy Matthews and the midget boy wonder, Keith Olbermann. Olbermann, as you may recall, suffered the indignity of his former girlfriend writing up juicy details of their love life on her blog. She revealed how remarkably inept he is off screen, as well as chronicled his inadequate bedroom abilities and his genetic shortcomings. That may explain much of Olbermann’s deep anger at life!

Sit back and watch the pissy duo get snippy while covering the Democrat National Convention!

K-I-S-S-I-N-G!

Yep, that world class mental giant, Bob ‘Yusef’ Herbert, was caught with his slip showing on ‘Morning Joe’ on MSNBC this morning.  At one point, he demands to know exactly why he thinks about large phallic symbols when he sees images of that hunky Barry Obama.  Using his own word, “POW!”

It must be seen to be believed.

Herbert is so delirious by his unbridled, runaway passions that he insists he sees The Washington Monument and the Leaning Tower of Pisa in the commercial.

Now, I know I am one of those Americanos who embarrasses Barry by going to places like Germany and not speaking German.  All I can manage is ‘Merci Beaucoup,’ which I admit doesn’t get you very far on the streets of Berlin!

But unlike world-class minds like Bob Herbert, even I know the difference between the Washington Monument & The Leaning Tower of Pisa, and The Victory Column in Berlin.

Yep, poor Bob misidentified The Victory Column for both The Washington Monument and the Leaning Tower of Pisa.  I particularly like the self satisfied look on Herbert’s face as he invites an incredulous Pat Buchanan to “run the ad again and take a look at it!”

You read it here first

The NY Post’s Page Six ran a story that readers of The Silver State Chronicles have been privy to all week. It didnt require any crackerjack investigative journalism, either! Nope, all it required was paying attention! It’s all about how ‘I Beat Albinism’ Chrissy Matthews and ‘Lollipop Guild’ charter member Keith Olbermann wasted no time in shamelessly (and childishly) campaigning for Lil’ Russ’s job on Meet The Press.

CABLE GUYS LUST FOR TIM’S JOB

TIM Russert’s body wasn’t even cold in the ground before MSNBC anchors Chris Matthews and Keith Olbermann started jockeying for his job, sources claim.

Matthews was heard loudly discussing what seemed to be his strategy for landing Russert’s “Meet the Press” show at Wednesday’s memorial reception for the NBC Washington bureau chief at the Kennedy Center in DC. After Brian Williams, Carl Bernstein, David Gergen, Barbara Walters and NBC brass eulogized their friend, Matthews huddled with an unidentified “agent type” and seemed to be plotting.

According to our spy, “Chris, with his loud voice, was going over a pitch for Tim’s job. He was saying, ‘You know, Tim’s thing was this, and my thing is that.’ It was unbelievably tacky.”

But Matthews told Page Six that the man he was with was real-estate developer Bob Monahan and that they were talking about a speech Matthews will give soon to a group of mayors in Gettysburg, Pa.

“We started fighting about it. He wanted me to talk about block grants. I want to give my general political speech,” Matthews said. “I swear to God that’s what happened.”

Matthews denies he wants to host “Meet the Press”: “I love what I do. My Sunday show is a perfect fit for me. I hope they find a perfect fit for ‘Meet the Press.’ “

Meanwhile, Matthews’ MSNBC cable cohort Olbermann, who was also at the memorial, is “threatening to quit if he isn’t installed as Russert’s replacement,” another insider said. “I know, it sounds ludicrous, but, then, Keith Olbermann is ludicrous.”

A rep for MSNBC said, “All of this is utterly untrue.”

Russert himself wanted Chuck Todd, the NBC News political director he hired, to succeed him, said one source, who added that MSNBC hosts don’t stand a chance of landing “Meet the Press.” The insider said, “They’re cable. They’re far too partisan. They have no gravitas. If gravitas is eight letters, they’re about seven letters short.”
