Chris Matthews Admits to Verbally Accosting GOP Delegates at Restaurant

Just hours after a producer for deranged MSNBC host Chris Matthews was accused of physically assaulting Republicans outside the party’s national convention last night, Matthews himself has admitted to verbally confronting several GOP delegates at a restaurant in Tampa, Florida calling them a “douchebag convention.”

According to The Hill newspaper, the perpetually angry liberal television host confronted the delegates early Friday morning following taunting questions they asked about whether he felt “thrilled” following GOP nominee Mitt Romney’s acceptance speech.

The controversy began, according to a witness interviewed by The Hill when Matthews twice refused to acknowledge a New York delegate named Eric Ulrich who had greeted him. This prompted other Republican patrons of the restaurant to begin heckling him for the perceived slight:

He headed back into the restaurant to mix it up with them. “I wanted to confront them,” Matthews said, describing his exchange with the men as “towel-snapping” among guys.

Matthews said he told the rowdy group, “What’s this, a douchebag convention?”

The Republicans became angry and retorted back.

“I told him that’s next week," said New York delegate Anthony Nunziato, referring to the Democratic convention in Charlotte, N.C., that will start on Tuesday.

Little Chrissy can’t take the pressure. He can’t understand why everyone doesn’t love Barry as much as he does.

That confirms it; he's queer.

When Chrissy takes his show on the road, he usually does it from a bar.

He needs to be sent to the asylum for treatment. He is mentally ill.

Seriously, why doesn’t Comcast fire his butt?

The party of hate and victim hood really has nothing to run on except perpetually hate. The nation should be served up a huge helping of hate during the RAT convention next week.

Mathews has never been enough of a man even to understand towel snapping. When he was in the locker room he was merely teased and ridiculed, then ignored.

Mathews is an alcoholic who appears to have fallen off the wagon. I guess you could call that mentally ill.

Because the CEO of Comcast is a buddy of Obama’s. He visited him on Martha’s Vinyard.

Sharpton (I’m convinced) was put in place there by Obama to fuel the race baiting.

WHI tipped us that the ‘race’ issue would be HUGE for his re-election. This is all coordinated.
