MSNBC’s Chris Matthews is never one to let the facts get in the way of race-baiting. According to Matthews and Tuesday’s Hardball guests partisan shills, constitutionally guaranteed states’ rights are now racist!
< snip >
Matthews built his strawman argument, jumping from John Calhoun to Jim Crow, as he equated nullification and interposition to equal rights. Equating the succession movement to the equal rights movement is just nonsensical, Chris. Just because people have used these words doesn’t undermine the validity of the concepts presently at hand.
You could almost feel the terror when guest, Wayne Slater of the Dallas Morning News, described the fright “stump talk about the 10th Amendment” and “state rights” gives the Left,
“Kind of gives you a shiver because that phrase is obviously freighted from the civil rights movement. To ignore the nativist racial aspect of this is to ignore the reality of the success and appeal of this pitch to a conservative Republican primary constituency.

The quintessential Pillsbury Doughboy gives lessons in “racism”...that’s rich. Matthews needs to read more than just the captions under the pictures....
Boy, when I read things like this, just for a second I forget that Chris Matthews is a white guy.
Chrissy and Zero can share the same padded room when this insanity draws to a close.
They are both teetering on the edge. I sure hope someone is keeping a close eye on Zero too. Friend of mine was at the National Prayer Breakfast and swore Zero was on drugs. Said he seemed to be “off in la la land”
BTW, pre-secession it was the slave states that pushed for expansion of federal power to return fugitive slaves and the northern states that resisted this expansion with various state laws.
Does MSNBC have any news, or are they strictly entertainment?
“Does MSNBC have any news, or are they strictly entertainment?”
They’re not even entertainment. A mental ward, yes.
Matthews used to be comically tolerable, as a sort of dingbat Dem pundit. But in the last year or two, he’s really proven himself to be a totally vile POS. A real scumbag.
the man is obsessed with color.
how this buffoon has a job is beyond me, what is even more amazing is that there are a few who watch him
Ya know talking to Chris the other day about politics and Obama I almost forgot he is a dumba##. THOSE WHO THINK AND SPEAK RACISM ARE THE RACISTS!
Chris Matthews? Chris Matthews? Never heard of him. Does he play that gay assistant on Ugly Betty?
Does he have syphilis?
foaming at the mouth suggests rabies...
He lost me long before calling Saul Alinsky a hero. He is a lot more fun when he has been Kennedied up and slurring his words.
yep me
I couldn’t give a rats arse if someone calls me racist or any pother name, what’s funny is when they say homophobic, they use words they don’t even know the meaning of.
Phobic to be scared to live in fear, now where the hell does any of us live in fear of homosexuals?
I think they’re disgusting and have a mental perverted sickness which needs to be addressed, even seeking medical and mental help is needed for them but nope, I don’t live in fear of a pickle sniffing, flower power pansy.
I love the you’re intolerant or coexist crap they spout and yet once you speak with the majorities view from this country they get to act like a baby who had their formula taken away.
The coexist is great, love that one, have a sticker they hate and they start blabbering to themselves or try to overtake quickly so they’re not stuck behind you reading the stickers they don’t agree with.
the loony left are like children who rebelled and still feel they should, The age doesn’t matter, whether their aging hippies or snotty nosed dumb students, they still act out like a little child.
He's got nothing. No facts, no moral authority, and no arguments.
So, he tries to hide behind false charges of racism.
Rachel Maddow and Keith Olbermann use the exact same tactic.
WW II hero and former President George Bush said this about these MSNBC cable clowns:
George H.W. Bush: Olbermann And Maddow Are "Sick Puppies" (VIDEO)
When you have lost your argument, cry racism — the last shelter for the weakest of intellects.
To ignore the fact the the Democrats opposed the abolition of slavery, created Jim Crow laws, and opposed the Civil Rights Act of 1964 gives me shivers...

And did so under the umbrella of support for States Rights (same rationalization used by the Confederacy- it wasn’t about slavery).
Would I be incorrect in thinking King Willie’s a lock to beat Steve Cohen?
