Matthews Suggests Opposition To ObamaCare Similar to Support For Segregation
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Opposed to ObamaCare? Maybe you're just a secret segregationist . . .

As absurd as it sounds, that's the possibility that Chris Matthews posed this evening. His guest was Georgia Attorney General Thurbert Baker, a Democrat who has declined Republican Gov. Sonny Perdue's request to sue the federal government over ObamaCare. Matthews reached back to 1964 to suggest that Perdue might also have opposed the Civil Rights law.

Well, then, we can count on Democrats to try and stop it. Like desegregation.

Chrissie needs to see a shrink to deal with his morbid obsession with race.

"Chrissie needs to see a shrink to deal with his morbid obsession with race."

Especially considering his ultra-Caucasion appearance, he's probably compensating for something:)

Under Jim Crow, Democrats let them Nigras associate with each other in their own restaurants, schools, churches, restrooms and bus stops without any segregation whatsoever.

In 1965 how many Georgian senators voted for the bill?

Do you seriously think a Democrat Governor would take the refusal of a GOP AG to follow a directive to sue somebody laying down?

The GOP is a joke, I saw the Nevada Governor get his ass handed to him by his socialist bitch AG as well.

The GOP Governors should be calling for a GD mob to from outside the AG’s offices and put the fear of the PEOPLE in them.

Because that’s what the socialists do, to great effect.

Liberals have a one note song...

If dems wanted to kill all children under the age of five - and the rest of us objected they would compare it to people objecting to civil rights for blacks ...

Really - one note song - and a creepy totalitarian one at that...

“Matthews is a One Trick Pony.

Hate/race is his substitute for rational reasoning.”

You are correct. He plays the race card at every opportunity. Instead of any substantive debate he just calls his opponents racists.

I’d rather have a colonoscopy than listen to Chris Matthews.

Remember those standardized test questions of analogies that went: Hand is to glove, as Foot is to....and then there were choices such as a)halo b)cousin C)sock???
Well...Chris and the others who make these statements trying to connect EVERYTHING to either racism, the holocaust, segregation, JFK or McCarthy, must have really, really gotten very low scores on those tests!

The Kenyan-Pelosi DeathCare is polling badly.

The Kenyan and his minions whip out the race card toexplain his unpopularity.

America resents the blackmail.
