Chris Matthews Disgustingly Claims New Romney Ad Contains Racial Codes

Everyone knows that politics can be an ugly business, but MSNBC’s Chris Matthews sunk to a new long on his Hardball program Tuesday night. Matthews’ outrage came from an ad put out by the Romney campaign suggesting that President Obama, "announced a plan to gut welfare reform by dropping work requirements," which, his administration most certainly did.

Since there's nothing factually assailable about the ad, Matthews decided that the best approach for criticizing the spot was claiming it was "Willie Horton stuff." Of course, the 1988 Willie Horton ad was also 100 percent factually unassailable, which is why that ad resonated against then-Gov. Michael Dukakis (D-Mass.). The issue at hand isn’t the accuracy of the ad but rather Matthews' insistence that racism is at play. …

I am tired. Tired of all this leftist drivel. Tired of a media who should be strung up in the town square for all to see. Tired of these Stalinist tactics.

The Democrats are so desperate to keep power that in the span of two days they accused Romney of killing a woman and having his company funded from South American death squads.

But what really is depressing is that sane, educated adults, people with families, good jobs and participation in their communities are believing this crap.

Thank you for identifying what was running up or down Chris's leg.

I think the only code that Chris really understands is the racial code that had him orgasmic over Obama's election. There are compulsion driven Leftists, crazy Leftists, Lenin's "Useful Idiots," and people like Chris, who are almost undefinable in terms of any sentient perspective. The one thing that he most clearly lacks is any sense of fairness or objectivity.

Chrissy Matthews is an Obama sycophant and has a huge man-crush on Obama. He has so much man-love for his idol that his tingling leg developed into a full-blown case of restless leg syndrome.

I’m not either, but that is an awesome ad. They mentioned no names, but you know what and who they mean.

Regarding ads with codes and messages, the current GEICO ad is full of them

The scene opens at a farmers market where a man asks the farmer about the cauliflower. He asks if the farmer knows the carbon foot print of the cauliflower. The implication being that even though it is Local Food, if it has a high carbon foot print he won’t buy it. One wonders if there is a message in the cauliflower its self that was beyond my capacity. The message is clear however that the potential purchaser is a wacko.

But before we learn the answer, Gallagher comes rushing up with a club that looks like the Pelosi super gavel and starts bashing a table full of watermelons to pulp smithereens...... it becomes obvious what they are.... Green on the outside and red on the inside. The definition of modern Progressives.

One wonders if Geico is sending a very subtle message to the moonbats at Progressive. One wonders if Flo is offended?

I do wonder about GEICO still . . . after all, their official name is still “Government Employees Insurance Co.” . . .

The MSM breathlessly pushed stories about 'Occupy' for months - even when some cities were pushing 'Occupy' rates of fewer than two dozen. Conservatives had more than a million people protest for traditional marriage at Chick-fil-A. And the MSM? They ignore the story.

That's the bad news. The good news is people - citizens - everyday Americans are taking notice. Talking to each other - starting to bypass the MSM ... It's how we started - now they're starting...

Let’s play for Chris the James Byrd dragging ad or the “black churches will burn if you vote for republicans” ad and see if he sees any racial codes there.
