Chris Matthews accused town hall protesters as being racist (Matthews false accusations)
Lou Dobbs Radio ^ | 8/28/09 | Lou Dobbs

We've heard it so many times now. If you oppose ObamaCare on rational, reasonable grounds, you are likely a racist who wants to destroy the president. The latest charge comes from Rep. Diane Watson. You won't believe this one. She says: "They are spreading fear and they're trying to see that the first president who looks like me -- fails." CLICK HERE TO LISTEN TO THE FULL REMARKS of what this so-called leader had to say about anyone who disagrees with the president on factual grounds.

Congresswoman Diane Watson is not alone in her accusations. We're hearing this all the time now. Her namesake, coincidentally, MSNBC host Carlos Watson said of protestors at town hall meetings: "What concerns me is that in some of those town hall meetings, you start to wonder whether in fact the word socialist is becoming a code word, whether or not socialist is becoming the new N-Word."

Chris Matthews accused town hall protestors as being racist, claiming, "I think some of the people are upset because we have a black president." On Hardball with Chris Matthews, Cynthia Tucker said of town hall protestors: "45 to 65% of the people who appear at these groups are people who will never be comfortable with the idea of a black president."

Chris Matthews has accused thousands of people of being racist, falsely. It is time to review his technique and examine the evidence.

He is a shill.

“Go balloons race cards, go race cards! Go race cards! I don't see anything happening. Go race cards! Go race cards! Go race cards! Standby confetti. Keep coming, race cards. More race cards. Bring it- race cards, race cards, race cards! We want race cards, tons of them. Bring them down. Let them all come. No confetti. No confetti yet.”

This is the liberal tactic in General. What Obama may achieve is the end of the Race Card as an effective technique. It is used so much on his behalf that only those already convinced buy it.

Leftists have fired the race gun far too often over the past several months. People will no longer buy it. The white guilt which influenced so many brain-dead voters last year is wearing of very rapidly.

” She says: “They are spreading fear and they’re trying to see that the first president who looks like me — fails.”

I don’t care if you look like gold and diamonds, if you’re a liar, you’re a liar.

Democrats just love to throw out red herrings to shift focus from the real issues. Especially when they are losing the fight on ideas.

Just another “racer”, no reason to take kooks like this seriously, other than as an object of ridicule.

Some people will claim anything but is there enough evidence to convict?

On the other hand "Mr. Thrill up his leg" could never be convicted of being a journalist, or reporter, or commentator.

Propagandist....... guilty!

I am so tired of this.

From now on, I plan on accusing every liberal of being a pedophile.

The dumbasses are violating Alinsky's rule to isolate INDIVIDUALS for ridicule and NOT to isolate groups or institutions. It will backfire on them and already is.

Call ‘em “racers” (like “birthers” or “truthers”).

They see some sort of conspiracy in that every issue has a racial component. You have to have some sort of sick kooky mind to think that way.

I was adamantly opposed to Hillarycare. Did that make me racist too?
