Hardball Gets Blackballed

The Republicans might just have declared a boycott of Chris Matthews' show. The reason? "The GOP thinks Matthews has gone over to Sen. John Kerry 's side and is too critical of the Bush campaign's editing of a Hardball interview with Kerry posted on the party's negative site, www.kerryoniraq.com."

Let's just get this straight. Matthews got upset that the Republicans cropped video footage of Hardball to make it seem as if John Kerry was saying something other than what he said. It's just about the lowest form of campaign advertising imaginable. And they did it with Matthews' show. How dare he react to that? He clearly needs to be punished.
