Newt To Chris Matthews: You Know, You're Kind Of A Racist
— andy

Open blog, you say? I guess it's time to do what Ace does and just swipe some content from Hot Air (video embedded below the fold).

The problem isnÂ’t that Tingles is willing to presume racism; the problem is that his presumption is irrebuttable, with subconscious racism the inevitable fallback presumption in cases like these when the accused protests vehemently enough. YouÂ’re guilty, even if you donÂ’t know it.

True. He always frames it as "have you stopped beating your wife?" and then talks over you as you try to make your point. And he's been doing it for decades.

But here's a little value-add over and above cribbing from Allah via James Taranto's WSJ column today. It's a point that never seems to dawn on Tingles and the rest of the dog whistle crowd as we laugh at them.

The thing we adore about these dog-whistle kerfuffles is that the people who react to the whistle always assume it's intended for somebody else. The whole point of the metaphor is that if you can hear the whistle, you're the dog.

Read the whole thing.

Thanks to John E. and Jammie Wearing Fool for the Newt/Matthews bitchslapping.

That's just a contorted way of saying that their accusations are a case of classic projection.

Still true, of course

7 He seems privy to some really bad internals or just downright under the influence or both

Posted by: garfish at August 27, 2012 04:48 PM (RDnLr)

8 Matthews is so sensitive when people laugh at his accusation. Like it's about them being evil, rather than the absurdity of his claim. There is a certain childishness to his fixation on "winning" a discussion. He accuses Newt of a "diabolical" smile because he "thinks he's winning." Who talks like that when they're hosting a news program?

19 Democrats are racist to their core, Doubly so for black Democrats.

Their every thought revolves around race and racism, how to use it to their advantage and how to project it onto others.

In part no doubt but it is a massive physics exertion at any rate. I am really saddened by our generation of engineers, scientists, and soldier being prevented from using their creativity and our collective resource base to properly apply Math!, Physics!, Chemistry!, and mechanical can-do spirit to corrective training and aggressive OPFOR retirement counseling.....

I had an idea about attaching hardened reflector plates to M-113 ACAVs and Bradleys and mounting claymore mines with a flip switch for area denial when a blast facing was "clear"....

66 I'd like to see a speaker at the convention say something like

"And all these accusations of 'racism' from places like the New York Times and MSNBC are just a bunch of horse dung. Because to say that opposition to Obama is racist is to say that opposition to any black candidate is racist. Is MSNBC or the Times saying that black politicians who stand for election should win by default, just because they're black? Because that in itself is a racist notion- that a black politician needs help to win a state or national office."

86 Matthews has a non-stop mouth. I think the way to deal with him is with physical props, not words.

ex. Bring a rape whistle and blow it when he's telling a whopper and raping the truth. Use one of those portable marine air horns when he interrupts. Get a can of silly string and hose him down if he's being an ass.

He can talk over almost anything automatically, but I doubt he's equipped to mentally handle physical ridicule with props. Use multiple props, if he starts bitching about the rape whistle, switch to the silly string.

106 85 When Newt is having a good day, he a fucking surgeon with his rhetoric. It's astounding that after all of his political experience, when he finally led the polls her just pissed away his lead on anti-Bain tirades and played to his out-there stereotype with proposals to revisit the Moon. Some people just don't have the temperament to either be President or conduct a Presidential campaign.

When a Republican says 'Good Morning!' it's racist!

----

Good refers to the "good old days of slavery". Everyone whose not a racist knows that. And 'morning' harkens back to the early days of slavery when the teams (associates?) were out picking cotton. So good morning means, get some slaves and have them harvest the cotton.

112 "... the problem is that his presumption is irrebuttable, with subconscious racism the inevitable fallback presumption in cases like these when the accused protests vehemently enough."

Precisely. Like the Soviets' psychiatric diagnosis of "sluggish schizophrenia", the principal symptom of which was that the "patient" had no symptoms of schizophrenia; or Herbert Marcuse's "false consciousness", Matthews' "unconscious racism" is irrefutable because the very absence of proof is itself proof of the condition. Naturally, as highly trained leftards, the Soviets, Marcuse, and Matthews can peer into the depths of the unconscious, while we poor right-wing bourgeoise depend on things like proof and evidence, for such assertions.

PurpAV has the right idea. These Left wing hacks are going to yell and scream at you no matter what. We might as well fight back.

We need to use humor and ridicule. These humorless drones cannot handle being mocked. Make them the but of the joke and they will lock up, meltdown or go on an unhinged tirade. Either way, they look foolish. If it happens enough, their bosses might notice just how foolish they are.

They may lose some appearances in the short run, or the humor might appeal to the audiences and they'll be booked more often?

152 I was just reading some comments on an entertainment site called pajiba.com. The comments followed a review of the movie 2016. The review called the movie racist and, big surprise, the commenters wholeheartedly agreed. They simply would not and perhaps could not accept the idea you could be white and opposed to Obama and not a racist. In fact, to them, merely being a Republican made you a stupid ignorant bigot. Nothing you could do or say likely would sway them. A healing and growing economy made possible by GOP victories certainly couldn't. Black unemployment going down would not budge them an inch. Prosperity and liberty blossoming like wild flowers across the continent would flow off them like water off a duck. Some version of Natural Selection will have to deal with them. They are beyond our help.

Tingles makes me sick! Can't stand to see/hear him/care about him!

This is the huge difference in the 2 men and the 2 parties.

Romney spent 2 1/2 years on a mission for his church $0;
5 years as Bishop of the LDS Church $0; (that includes counseling singles, marrieds with problems, people who lost jobs, people who need help of all kinds, camping and hiking with the youth Â– and they say he doesnÂ’t understand peopleÂ’s problems and poor people in particular!);
8 years as Stake President $0; (that includes the above but over 4 Â– 6 Bishops and their congregations);
Gov of Mass 4 years and took $0;
Saved the Olympics 4 years and took $0.
So I figure that adds up to 15 1/2 years donated. So if we added that up to his hourly salary Â– just wow!
Then you add 4 + 4 = 8 years in government and Olympics with no remuneration.
So letÂ’s talk about the real difference in the years given freely by Gov Romney and what obama has donated!
Then tingles can go jump!

Who really cares about the people?

When he asks you why you just tell him that he has had an episode of some sort where he was incoherent and foam was flying out of his mouth and that he needs to go lay down until the ambulance gets there.

Then proceed to talk to the emergency services like he isn't there at all other than to occasionally look at him and describe the symptoms.

"No, he wasn't making any sense and he got very exercised when no one heard the dog whistle he was claiming to hear."

"Prissy Christie" Matthews is far from an intelligent human being and his drool affair with Mr. Obama and this administration is well known, so when he knows how incompenent they are he only has to fall back on the standard liberal problem, their racism.

The liberals in the DNC have repeatedly shown their racism over the last 2 or 3 decades. They know that the plantation vote is in trouble if they find out so they go with the old Hitler "Big Lie" and call everyone else a racist so they are too busy defending to point out the fact that it is people like this that are racist.

According to the liberal wing Blacks in America are little better than children and are incapable of thought or actions and must be cared for by the state and of course keep on the DNC plantation.

They have just gone way too far past disgusting in this campaign.
