Chris Matthews Designates Obama as a Kennedy: 'Barack Is Now the Last Brother'
Media Research Center ^ | 08/26/09 | Tim Graham

MSNBC host Chris Matthews appeared three times on Wednesday’s Today show to lionize Sen. Ted Kennedy, and twice he promoted Barack Obama as the "last brother" of the Kennedy political dynasty. He tried to clarify a little in his appearance in the 10am hour: "I don’t mean that in an ethnic sense or a black sense. I mean a brother of the Kennedy tradition. And I think he’s the new brother, not that last brother."

Carefull Chrissy.

Must have caught some flak from the “New” black panther party.

I’m seriously wondering if he is just trying to pi** off conservatives by saying something this criminally biased. I noticed his ratings are well below Olbermann’s so...

If he calls himself a journalist that would be so wrong x 1,000,000.

“I mean a brother of the Kennedy tradition.”

Does this mean Odumbo gets a shot at Marilyn’s corpse?

They are below Olberhacks, which in turn is below pretty much anything on tv.

"I don’t mean that in an ethnic sense or a black sense."

Yeah we know, Chris. You meant it the way people of all the other races casually refer to each other as "brother."

“Mack Daddy the Zebra” seems to be content with Chris Matthew performing oral pleasures for now.

Joe Kennedy really got around when he had that motorcycle.

Dishonest, dumb as a stump, and out of his depth - he’s at least got that down. Without the extramarital stuff he’s just not one of the Kennedys.
