I haven't seen this posted, excuse me if it has been.
I love the description of Chris Matthews as "Sputtering blowhard".
Perfect!

Chris Matthews’ Brother Arrested on Perjury Charges
James R. Matthews, the Republican commissioner of Pennsylvania's Montgomery County and brother to sputtering blowhard Chris Matthews, was arrested this morning on perjury charges (http://www.philly.com/philly/news/20111206_DA_to_announce_charges_in_probe_of_Montco _commissioners.html). Yes, Chris Matthews' brother is a Republican politician.
UPDATE: While initial reports had the indictment related to "Breakfastgate," a small-time imbroglio about Matthews' regular breakfast meetings with fellow pols that may have violated Pennsylvania's open meetings laws, it turns out to be more serious. Matthews is accused of lying to a grand jury investigating his business relationship to a title company that he allegedly directed county business toward. "Matthews lied with such ease and frequency that he acted as though, as chairman of the Montgomery County Commissioners, he is above the law," the indictment reads.
