Chris Matthews rips into Reince -- awkward!

Chris goes off the rails here a bit -- but actually catches Reince in the end. Awkward silence ensures.

The more cranky and crochety Chris becomes, the more I love the guy. It's so nice to see these smug, out-of-touch politicos get the Tammany Hall smirk rubbed off their face for even a brief moment.

It's called Goebbeling isn't it? After the WW2 Minister of propaganda?

The GOP thinks that if you tell the same lies loud enough and often enough, they start to become truth.
Get mad Chris, I fucking love it.

Race card? There are just as much poor whites on welfare as blacks.
Democrats pull the race card all the time.
What game is being played?

Chris is such a fool. If Obama was born in America why has he spent millions to stop others from seeing a bonafide original document?

I can't believe I'm actually walking into this, but although the number of white welfare recipients is nearly equal to the number black welfare recipients, the overall number of blacks in America is about 6 times less than whites which makes it a much higher percentage of people in the black community receiving welfare. So issues of welfare have racial connotations. (and not to mention the fact that over 60% of people receiving welfare belong to some minority group)

And thank you for inspiring others to vote against your candidate with your last remark. Keep spreading "your truth" son, it can only help my side.>> ^bobknight33:

Reince - It's called "Obama-care"

Umm, no. The right-wing call it Obama Care. It's called The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.

Plus, I do think Romney was joking. I believe that he was mocking the whole absurdity of the notion of birth certificates and hence making fun of people like Boobknight here. Its just that robots have no sense of


timing.

It's obvious that he was making a joke, but in no way is the target of his joke the birthers or the absurdity. His joke is that he looks and acts like a Michigander, and that he's from a powerful, wealthy family with roots there, and that everyone knows who he is. And that Obama, by contrast, doesn't look or act like an American, and no one really knows who he is.

I mean, here's the actual moment. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cgxeUT6gzko

I think he was joking, too.

I also think he is -- guess what!! -- so out of touch with average Americans, that he doesn't understand the number of people in his party who would take that "joke" as fuel to the fire of their delusions.

He just cannot joke about this. Obama can, because his supporters know it is a joke. Rmoney can't, because some of his supporters don't know it is a joke.

Out. Of. Touch.

Upon reflection I think you are right @direpickle

I think he's also intimating that he's as white as white can be and there's no mistaking he's a good ol Michigan boy. I just heard Bill Maher go on and on about the racial overtones. There may be a little but nothing to get worked up about. Move on. (I can't believe I am being an apologist for Romney. I just need to save the rage for proper stuff is all)
