"I have to tell you, you know, it's part of reporting this case, this election, the feeling most people get when they hear Barack Obama's speech. My, I felt this thrill going up my leg. I mean, I don't have that too often. No, seriously. It's a dramatic event. He speaks about America in a way that has nothing to do with politics. It has to do with the feeling we have about our country. And that is an objective assessment." -- Chris Matthews

For those familiar with Chris Matthews' style, he really outdid his own loony self tonight, accusing Stewart of inventing black helicopter stories, etc. Given the two-on-one character of the fight, Stewart did very well and then delivered this line, or words to this effect:
"We swear an oath to the Constitution, not to a man, even if he makes a thrill run up your leg when he talks."
"OH, THE HUMANITY!"
Matthews blinked hard once and then, now that he was really pissed, took off even harder on Stewart's obvious (to him) paranoia, yada, yada.
Rhodes also took on that lying SPLC castrato Potok and hammered back at him about alleged racism. Stewart did us proud.
The clip will be up on YouTube shortly and you can judge for yourself, but ten will get you twenty by tomorrow that quote will be all over the blogosphere and talk radio.
In fact, once it is, Threepers and Oath Keepers should make sure that Rush, Beck, and all the media watchdog blogs get a copy of that line. Matthews is in for some serious derision. Help him get it.

Matthews is an obama bootlicker and an apostate from the Faith. I hope Rhodes irritated the crap out of that big Tweety Bird.
Wonderful! I posted your earlier link everywhere, but didn't watch it myself as I would have shot the screen as soon as I saw Potok, whom I despise more than Dee$, if that's possible.
Nice. Can't wait to see the clip.
Mathews is beneath contempt, not to mention the NOT Southern NOT Poverty UNLawful Center.
The video is currently posted at MSNBC. OMG what an a**hat Matthews and Polok
Stewart Rhodes was magnificent. Despite a smear attempt by Matthews and Potok that even included the most unattractive photo backdrop of Las Vegas possible. Chris Matthews was apparently the honors graduate at the Josef Gobbels School of Journalism. Their school motto: Keep repeating the lie until it becomes the truth.
And what in the name of all that is holy is going on with Mark Potok's hair? Apparently, Phil Specter's old hairdresser is now housed in the basement of the SPLC.
Looks like the video is up on YouTube... I'm watching it now.

"We swear an oath to the Constitution, not to a man, even if he makes a thrill run up your leg when he talks."
Priceless! Thank you Stewart for having the chutzpah to stand up to the treasonous swine.

Chris Matthew thanks for the free advertising.

I think going on the Matthews show was a mistake. It is simply not possible to engage screeching mental defectives in rational debate even under the most favorable circumstances. What good did it do to attempt this in a format where an exceptionally repugnant asshole runs his mouth in a monologue that occupies 95% of the show's time?
"I know what you're up to," the piece of shit says. I couldn't watch the part with Potok since I had just had dinner.
III, OK
it must have been removed from you tube, I looked hard and couldn't find it.
I just watched it on the MS-NBC site.
BRAVO, Stewart!! He stood up against the obvious baiting that the pervert, Mathews, was REALLY trying to do. He was on topic and to the point, and I REALLY liked it when he basically called that fairy, Potok, a liar!!
It was sickening to watch and listen to Mathews, attempting to distort and misconstrue the message of Oathkeepers. He kept trying to put the face of an organized military organization on Oathkeepers, with Stewart as the Commander, just waiting to call his troops into action.
I just hope and pray, that the majority of the sheeple that watched this obviously attempted set up, will see the truth.

I'm glad he went on the show, but he never really got a chance to get in a word edgewise. That screeching Matthews is the same reason I quit watching Fox years ago. He does the same as Hannity and O'Reilly, invite a guest speaker and then bombard him with questions and never let him fully answer 1 question. Then when he's offscreen, ridicule him and his half finished statements.
One liberal on O'Reilly took off his mic and walked away when O'Reilly wouldn't let him talk, then O'Reilly called him a loser and idiot when he was offscreen. You would have to be a fool to go onscreen and play by their rules, they always win, it's their show.
I think we must lead by example and the rest of these morons will never get it anyway. They're just baitfish.
Ok I hope to see Stewart's comments.
Matthews is totally irritating - I can handle him in small portions only, quarterly.
In this case, I'll put up with him - even considering I have to use dial-up to dl the video !
(then again, I guess even dial-up is somewhat of an improvement: my forebears hung lanters in tall church spires.....)
Keeping our powder dry
& our faith alive,
Samuel Adams in Texas
The progressives always resort to name calling when they feel threatened by what they don't understand. Funny how Matthews couldn't grasp the concept that the "Armed" people he was afraid of were armed by the government which he kept asking "Where is this government?" No wonder there's no liberal talk shows. Thay're brainless.
