Chris Matthews is a true idiot.
 

I guess the only way he can get anyone to pay attention is to make truly idiotic statements. According to Chris, only whites can be racists. Amazing!

Matthews Lectures Limbaugh: ‘Racism Is The Belief That One Race, Whites, Should Rule All Others

Yes, Major League, Hall of Fame

Typical racist comment by Matthews.

Ironic that he was lecturing Rush Limbaugh, the Nelson Mandela of talk radio.

It takes one to know one?

What an idiot. Even just in the context of the U.S. he's not correct.

Which one? :D

From Chris's POV, that explains why only Whites can be racists.
Of course that POV is not the truth, but it is convenient for his arguments.

Thanks for reassuring me that Matthews is not considered a serious Progressive--

Take your pick!

Who is Chris Matthews?

I was hoping that the idiocy of matthews and limbaugh would reach critical mass and the two of them would erupt in a burst of flame, eliminating a lot of rhetoric.

^^^ LOL!

Also, everytime I see the Picard facepalm it makes me laugh. I love this stuff!

I cannot stand listening to him. He just talks and talks. Can't shut up. He talks over his guests. Just a huge blow hard.

I heard this theory about 40 years ago. It goes like this....

In order to be a Racist you have to be able to back it up. (OK, I can see that. I know three racists and they are proud of it. All three are White, and all three are willing to be a racists at all times.)

In order to back it up you must have power. (This is where it falls apart. None of these three guys has any real power in any sense I can think of unless it is over their own thoughts.)

If they could they would not hire any one except a white person. But none of them have the power to hire, fire, turn out into the cold, etc..... anyone. So they just hate blacks for the sheer fun of it, I guess. None of them voted for Obama and all are happy to admit it is because he is black, so I guess that is some small bit of power. I know it makes them happy to tell people this.

Dr. King threw cold water on this when he simply stated that only you can make yourself feel inferior to anyone.

But back to 'the statement', which is just silly. I have known a few Blacks that hated White people for no other reason than they are White, and none of them had any power over anyone, either, but they were still happy to tell you they were Racists and made no apologies for it.

That is a fine observation and clever, too. Without a proper noun it easily applies to both of them.
