EPIC PFAIL! Hardball’s Chris Matthews destroys McCain campaign’s Nancy Pfotenhauer over Sarah Palin

Tonight on MSNBC’s Hardball, Chris Matthews totally destroyed McCain senior policy advisor Nancy Pfotenhauer over Sarah Palin’s failure to understand the role of the vice president. Obama spokesperson Bill Burton took part as well, but mostly just kicked back and enjoyed the bloodbath.

EPIC PFAIL!

Heh! Mr. Cracker and I were snickering at the Pfotenhauer pflogging mere moments ago. I just hope the upcoming World Series game is as enjoyable. (For me, not for Humboldt Blue.)

Pfotenhauer for dinner - sliced, diced and pureed. Nice job! I wonder how long that pasted on smile stayed on her face after her bit was finished.

Pfotenhauer pflogging

Love it! I’m still at work but will definitely watch when his show gets repeated later tonight. Go Rays! (I actually have no understanding of baseball at all except that the Rockies were kinda good once but apparently now suck again but wish to express solidarity).

Wow, I am so fucking ready for campaign 2008 to be over. This can’t get any more stupid, surreal and utterly vapid.

THE PHIGHTIN’ PHILS WILL NOT BE DONE IN BY A BUNCH OF RECENTLY-GRADUATED COLLEGE STUDENTS WHO STILL HAVEN’T HAD TO EVEN FUCKING SHAVE.

THE PHIGHTIN’ PHILS, PROUD CARRIERS OF THE BANNER THAT READS “LOSINGEST TEAM IN ALL OF PROFESSIONAL SPORT” (it’s true, the Phils could go undefeated for 50 seasons and still not be at .500 for the history of the franchise) WILL NOT BE DENIED BY A TEAM CALLED THE “RAYS” ... WHAT, WERE THE JOE’S, THE JOHN’S AND THE PETE’S NOT GOOD ENOUGH?

THE PHIGHTIN’ PHILS SHALL PREVAIL, EVEN IF THAT DIPSHIT FROM ALASKA IS CALLED ON TO DROP THE FIRST PUCK (and y’uns know she’d be stupid enough to walk onto a baseball diamond prepared to drop a hockey puck, or Trig, whichever came first.)

And just so y’uns are prepared, Betty and I have a little wager on this world series. If the Phils win Betty donates 25 bucks to the Humboldt Domestic Violence center ... if the Rays win I send 25 bucks to a women’s center in Betty’s neck of the woods.

GO PHIGHTIN’ PHILS!!!

Well it seems logging in as a roaster caused more goddamned headaches then the secret password thing.

Comment by HumboldtBlue on 10/22/08 at 07:32 PM

Just to be fair - go Phils! (is that for Philadelphia? :) ) And percentage wise the Rockies might be losing-er. At least, if you listen to my husband.

Honestly, I just feel sorry for her—she’s basically Palin’s whipping girl at this point, taking the beatings Palin should be receiving while Caribou Barbie does fluff interviews with Fox. Heck, they even put Pfotenhauer on Maddow awhile back. They would have to pay me Epic Benjamins to do her job…

Yay Marin!!! And yes, the Philadelphia Phillies ... The Rockies have only been in business for 14 or 15 years, the Phillies have been at it for 100 and some odd years.

Mrs. Hussein and I really kind of felt sorry for her…not.

She would be a better candidate than SP…and you think the thought of handing her a mini constitution didn´t come to mind? Nancy´s one of those smart psedo-feminists…this crash and burn wasn´t on her..it might be the only reason she could keep that genuine-ass smile on her face.

That folks was the cross road moment in cocktail weenie politics where she just realized that their gig is up. So there´s no point in her being mad after the segment. SHe has NO MORE leverage in DC. Losers never do.

Feeney won´t even cheat them out of this bag.

The skeletal remains of Nancy Pfotenpfucker frighten my children, who run crying from the room whenever she appears on TV. “I can see her skull through her skin!” they shriek.

Comment by Allan on 10/22/08 at 09:06 PM

The suck thing about Poofnqueef is that I’m sure we won’t be rid of her after the election. She will live on as some type of “expert” on the Faux Noise network , spewing bat shit insane talking points , and scaring the shit out of small children with her Skeletor on acid smile.
And I think that smile is a surgical implant , she kept it pasted on even when her eyes looked like she wanted to cry.

Yes indeed, their campaign is pfucked!

Comment by Noah on 10/22/08 at 09:57 PM

I hope Hardball brings her back for more between now and November 4th. That video was quite enjoyable.

Poofnqueef

Best one yet…

Agreed.
Can’t believe that I now love Chris Matthews. What the fuck.

I almost felt bad for Pfotenhauer. Almost. Btw, my kid, who is now in fifth grade, would have easily understood the phrase “the role of the vice president is to support the president and to break a tie, should there be one, in the Senate, boys and girls,” when she was in third grade.

The Pfillies won. Wow. That must mean we really are in a recession.
