SUMMARY: Chris Matthews lambasted journalists for laughing at and applauding President Bush's performance at the March 8 Gridiron Club dinner. Matthews stated, "If there's one thing I can't stand, it's reporters -- the best of them -- laughing at events and political acts that warrant anything -- I mean anything -- but laughter." Several of Matthews' colleagues reportedly attended the Gridiron Club dinner, including NBC's Tim Russert and Andrea Mitchell.
