[LEFT]Chris Matthews Bombs on 'Jeopardy!' After Repeatedly Mocking Palin for How She'd Do



Read more: Chris Matthews Bombs on 'Jeopardy!' After Repeatedly Mocking Palin for How She'd Do | NewsBusters.org



[LEFT]On at least four occasions, MSNBC's Chris Matthews mocked Sarah Palin for how he felt she'd do if she were ever on the hit television game show Jeopardy!.

In a delicious example of instant karma, the self-proclaimed brainiac got his chance to show America how smart he was in a special "Power Players" version of the show Monday, but came up quite short finishing dead last with the paltry sum of only $2,300 (video follows with transcribed highlights and commentary):
With the category "Law and Order," the answer was, "A U.S.D.C is one of these, charged with the jurisdiction of a specific region."
Matthews responded, "What is a U.S. attorney?"
And this guy has the nerve to ridicule anyone. Where do you find "attorney" in the acronym "U.S.D.C.?"

Obviously, the correct response was district court.
Then, in the same category, another answer was, "In 1986, the Supreme Court ruled that the 'hostile environment' type of this can be sex discrimination."

Matthews responded, "What is a hostile workplace?" This brainiac thinks the same word can be in both the answer AND the question.
Of course, the correct response was sexual harassment.

That's because that tingle in his leg is a distraction.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Back when that other guy that was fired from MSNBC — I forget his name, you know, the other really obnoxious one, but I digress — I emailed Chris to ask who was the bigger dolt, that other guy or Mr. Matthews. Actually Robert Gibbs surprised me even though he won by default.

It should be interesting to see how Dana Perrino fares on the show during her appearance this week. Too bad the show won't be having that boob, Bob Beckel on as well.

Poor Chris Matthews. I can't stand to watch his show, I feel he is going to have a stroke on TV.

Watch him, he drools and slobbers when on TV. Awful.

And thats avoiding his comments and opinions.

He's a millionaire with his own tv show and you're working for a barely livable wage while spewing your opinions on a Website.

So tell me again....who got owned?
