All liberals suffer paternalistic racism.

When we kick Barry’s sorry socialist butt out in 2012, Chrissy will be there to say that we’re all racist.

So that is how the Leftist progressives view us, as an old tribe. Wonder if they have that going around in talking points memos; as EE posted from the mailbag today an email from Cams Cams, telling Erick that he would “not be taken seriously beyond his own tribe.”

If a conservative commentator had said this, the Left would be screaming for their head today.

Matthews is nauseating, and the others just like him make them intolerable to watch or listen to. Now his idol, Pres. Obama, knows how his elitist white friends and supporters really feel about him.

His racism would be inexcusable, if his facts weren’t in error.

President Obama isn’t the first “African American”, POTUS, he’s the bi/multiracial President.

Maybe Matthews can take some comfort in the fact that his heritage is half white. Maybe he just got confused because, after the tingly feeling ran up his leg, he saw the caucasion half.

Then again, he didn’t say that a few years ago that Obama would’ve been serving him coffee, ala Bill Clinton.

After listening to the first clip, its clear to me that Chris Matthews is still struggling with some deep-seeded guilt. In his second clip, Matthews sounds like a man who’s trying hard to convince himself some something.

Its obvious that Matthews continues to see Obama as a black president, instead of just his president. No wonder he felt compelled to vote for him. I pray that his vote was a first small step beyond racism for Matthews.

To borrow a prescription from Brit Hume, I’d recommend a little “come to Jesus” for Matthews – it would help him, and many like him.

I’m glad that I was able to vote for John McCain with a clear conscience. I sincerely feel sorry for those who couldn’t.

used to refer to their African American fellow citizens?

Great Rush quote from today on the speech and Matthews’ reaction:

“Chris Matthews forgot Obama was black for an hour. I forgot he [Obama] was President.”

I’m not a black person, but if I were, I’d be so #$#%&@@!! angry that I’d be calling the NAACP, Congressional Black Caucus, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton just to name a few. Hey wait a minute, where are these guys? How come they haven’t said anything? What’s up???

… Since the 60′s Mr. Matthews. Nice Job
( I mean the 1860′s,.. btw)

(Source: AmericanHeritage.com/Lincoln & Douglass)
The first conversation between Frederick Douglass and Abraham Lincoln on August 10, 1863, remains one of the pivotal moments in American history: when a former slave could enter the office of the president to discuss significant issues and festering problems and, more remarkable still, when the president could seem to enjoy Douglass’s opinions and views, no matter how contrary to his own. And Douglass freely recalled, “Lincoln is the first white man I ever spent an hour with who did not remind me I was a Negro.”

I saw that puke say that and really had the same thoughts you did, you wrote it up very well.

One of my good friends once said to me that you can tell what type of person someone is by what they think other peoples intentions are. This is sorta the same. Chris exposed himself, like you wrote, to anyone who actually isnt a racist, because people who arent racists dont tend to see race. I forgot he was black is a very ugly thing to say. Why, Chris? Because he wasnt smoking crack or stealing a car?

Very, very vile. Whats more is this thought probably is indicative of what that clique of people think. I know this isnt new, but the left is built on a foundation of hate of people, which is why so many of them are racist. Disgusting.

serious journalist. Actually I forgot that a long time ago. Even before he had a “thrill” run up his leg.

90% of what motivated people to vote for Obama who had no grasp on the issues was the romance of electing a Black man to the Presidency — first because he was Black, and now because he isn’t Black, I guess.

Matthews has already pledged to be a shill for Obama regardless of what happens, and so I can only conclude that this rhetorical change of heart comes straight from the top, to cover how weak a President he really is.

More places around the world are beginning to be alarmed: Obama only turns left, and he’s basically lame. Next time around Matthews will be telling people: “I really forgot he was handicapped…”

I dunno what’s conditioned me. Political Correctness. Growing up in and continuing to live in the People’s Republic of TaxachusettEs. Yet those would be ceding tenets to the Left. Maybe it was simply from good parenting, good education, good mentoring, or good breeding?

I dunno what it is… but when I see people, I see PEOPLE. I don’t see gender, color, political affiliation, or sexual persuasion. Everyone I interact with is interacted with in the same fashion.

I did not see a black man delivering the SOTU last night.

That said/read… Of course, I let my guard down depending on who I am engaging. That’s human nature. Yet the act of ‘engaging’ and ‘guard dropping’ still adheres to the same ideals. Meaning, I don’t think less of someone that ran a stop sign because of whatever their denominations or persuasions may be. I think less of them for disobeying the law at most and for being inconsiderate at least. So if I don’t know you well, I’d say, “There was a knucklehead on the road today,” vs. saying, “There was a totally annoying @#&*$% on the road today!” all utterly dependent upon how well I know you.

It puzzles me to hear someone like Chris Matthews say the things he said. And Harry Reid. I can understand it when Sharpton and Jackson go there. But not someone like Matthews or even Reid.

These men do not make such statements because of the “inherent racism of the Democratic party,” despite how delicious such a thing would be a joy to witness become exposed (were I to believe it a fact). I honestly do not think that the Democrats of this stripe are de-facto racists.

I speculate that it all comes down to how different our ideologies are wired. I think that, to them, it is simply a playing chip on the field. Something to be parlayed and bandied about. Used as a tool against your opponent. A “Hey, remember how racist we all are?” kinda thing. A strategy of sorts. All part of the game to them.

No, I do not think Matthews and Reid are racist to the core. Yet I do think that they know the game they are trying to play and reluctantly backpedal when they think they’ve stepped in it too far.

In short — No, Chris is not racist through every fiber of his being. He’s just playing one of Alinsky’s commonly deployed tools.

I like that. It’s catchy. Makes me think of “The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys.” Probably couldn’t put it to music, though.

With his ratings, Comcast will probably let him go.

Bye, Bye

I thank goodness that my college has Clarence Thomas and Dan McLaughlin among its graduates too.

Today, as I was driving a friend to lunch, he turned and said, “You know, for a moment there I completely forgot that you were Asian. I mean, you didn’t bump into another car while getting out of the parking lot. We haven’t had any close calls merging into the freeway. We’re both still alive!”

And, at the grocery store, the cashier said, “You know, I almost forgot that you were Asian until you handed me your credit card and saw your name, because you spoke with no accent! How do you do speak English so well and eloquently?”

As an Asian-American, I didn’t feel offended at all.

Great article, BTW. Chrissy is the quintessential “Isn’t it wonderful that OUR President can act white for so long I was able to forget he was black?”

Obviously, it disturbs Matthews (and his tingling leg) when he recalls that BH O’Drama IS INDEED black.

When black folks begin to realize that the white people who treat them no differently than anyone else (i.e. no condescension) are their friends, they will finally be free of the DEM Plantation and their white overseerers, Massa Reid, Ma’am Boxer, et al. The only blacks still interested in presenting “The Po’ Negro” meme are the ones still profiting from it, e.g. Jesse, Al, BHO, Rahm, Henry Louis Gates Jr., all faculties of “Black Studies” programs, Rainbow/PUSH, the NAACP, etc….

every single night of the week.

I can’t remember if he is on NBC, CBS or ABC. I keep forgetting where those channels are located on my set-top box.

I noticed in the mirror this morning that my skin is lighter than the President’s, which was a huge wake-up call to me. One of those head-smacking, coulda-had-a-V8 revelations. It’s embarrassing how much time I’ve spent walking around forgetful of my whiteness. God, I just feel so guilty now.

I needed that reminder. Thanks, Christy!
