Oh boy, leave it to Tweety.
H/T to John Cole, over on Balloon Juice, for the catch;
This Chris Matthews quote is a Palinesque work of art:
MATTHEWS: And I think we have got to get serious about catching terrorists, not just catching weapons. I‘m waiting for the terrorist who knows kung fu or something that gets on an airplane without a weapon. God knows what that is going to be like.
Hey, Gerald, happy new year, even under this circumstance.
WTF!
We go from a kid, putting a bomb in his underwear, to sketching out a new Jackie Chan movie?
Steve Benen was also scratching his head;
Also note the context: Matthews is urging us to "get serious" about counterterrorism, and in the next sentence, warning us of the potentially deadly consequences of terrorists who know "kung fu or something."
Oh man ...
Was Tweety hitting the punch a little early this evening?
But, on another note, Tweety's wing-in-mouth solved our New Year's Eve music choice.
Everybody, get up and shake it!
