Newt Gingrich Slams Chris Matthews For ‘Racist Thinking’


gingrich matthewsMSNBC’s Chris Matthews seems to be unable to control himself without working himself up into a lather about racism. On Monday he completely lost control, on the Morning Joe, with RNC Chair Reince Priebus concerning playing the race card. Sadly Priebus wouldn’t even stand up to Matthews and call him the hypocrite that he is. Other liberals had to do that.

Here’s the clip from that exchange, or lack of one:

But it was later in the evening on Hardball that Matthews chose to pick on the wrong Republican. Think what you will about Newt Gingrich, but he had no problem in pointing out the blatant hypocrisy of Chris Matthews. Gingrich destroyed him on national television and said he had “racist thinking.” The exchange went like this:

MATTHEWS: You can laugh about it, but you don’t think you’ve used it in the past? What’s a food stamp president?

GINGRICH: A food stamp president is a guy whose policies are so destructive, that he creates the longest unemployment since the Great Depression and he puts more people on food stamps, most of them white, than anybody else. Why do you assume food stamp refers to black? What kind of racist thinking do you have? Wait a second! Why aren’t you being a racist because you assume it refers to black?

    It’s actually a good thing the other libs had to calm Matthews down. It shows that even for their own leanings, he’s over the top and gone. That poor man must be a very miserable creature… real sad.

    Chris Matthews turned me into a proud Republican, from a head-down, idiotic Democrat….That shrill, girlish voice made my ears bleed!!

  • Jen

    I applaud Newt. I would have reached over and punched the jerk!

  • mike

    “Young Buck standing in line to get money to buy booze/!” YOUNG BUCK? Nice Chris Mathews, really nice.

    It time for some one to stand up to Chris . He need to be fired. He is too bias to report on any news with the true facts. He is just like our president his words has no value. He does not mind to tell us lies and miss guided data. I refuse to listen to that station. Turn to Fox new if you want the truth….Here is another place to learn why our president has failed all of us, Alone with why he wants to degrade the usa………….*Watch it now before it gets pulled from the internet!*

    The dems seem to have conveniently forgotten their past.. Blacks would be a lot further along in equality if the DEMOCRATS would quit holding them back! Dems like Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Louis Farrakhan, Jeremiah Wright, to start with – if the blacks weren’t kept down, they wouldn’t have a job – so they have to keep the black man down.. Ain’t Whitey doin it!

    Jim Crow was a democrat. President Johnson was probably the most racist president we’ve had – the ONLY reason he signed the Civil Rights Act – the ONLY reason – was that he got convinced by his advisors that if he did, it would give the dems – and him – a huge voting block. And it did.

    The democrats gave been doing everything in their power to keep black people poor and on the Gubmint dole to keep them dependent on the Gubmint, figuring the blacks will keep voting dem to keep the Gubmint teat going.

    The woman who popularized abortion (I can’t think of her name) was a democrat – her idea was to solve the “black problem” by aborting enough black babies that the black people would just go away.

    And the democrats have the nerve – the gall – the cajones! – to call conservatives racist?? Look in your own closet first, dems!!

    Chris Matthews is nothing but a race baiter, he should be fired [again] America is better than this, we don’t need race baiting idiots like him. bad this is we’ll see many more like him as the president looses his grip on his unlimited power as king!

  • Oscar

    Race card my ***! Who was it that went on television recently telling all the blacks to vote for him? Duuuuh! Ohhhh! Now we remember was that one who is black his self. Matthews is only a small screw in a pile of Dolts!.

  • cantonst

    Chris Matthews, who voted for George W. Bush over Al Gore in 2000, will, with the rest of the devisive, race baiting, pandering, federal plantation overlord Democrats, have to answer for their actions at the final judgement. No amount of talking over or spinning will sidetrack their guilt.

  • 820 REDHORSE

    All I can say is the RNC chairman & Newt are very restrained men, I however would beat sissy chrissies brains out!!! I looooooooathe him in ways that only compare to my destain to oduh’huh!

    • Sam in NC

      I’m with ya on that, Redhorse !

  • Rose

    Good for Newt. Why does Matthews hate his own race so much? Why doesn’t he just paint his face black? Idiot.

    • Sam in NC

      Good point, Rose !

  • Jake

    Chris Matthews has marginalized himself. He lives in an alternate universe.

    One would think Matthews is at least smart enough to quit trying to ambush folks who are smarter than he is…….evidently not!

    • http://www.facebook.com/karl.m.williams Karl M Williams

      A liberal does not believe there is anyone smarter than they.

    • hibp

      And they start screaming and name calling as soon as they can’t defend their positions…..I noticed that Years ago.

  • rick

    i’m bummed that newt did’nt stand up and say, i don’t deal with racist scum, and leave. more to that point, why do supposed conservative’s give these communists the time of day, let alone an interview??? to be on liberal tv?? who knows but, the blond blue eyed, american version of josef goebbels, is nothing more than gallows fodder when the crime of barry soetoro is ajudicated. cheers.

    Matthews is such an idiot and a racist fool as well.

  • MrsVL

    All Chris Matthews can do is interrupt and call people names! He doesn’t have anything to back his words up with and that is why MSNBC is the lowest rated cable show! He’s a disgrace to cable TV.

    • Sam in NC

      You described that jerk in a more polite manner than I was about to, LOL ! Thank you,

    • Rick

      chris matthews has a mockingbird mouth and an aligator a s s .

    • bill

      That should be an “aligator mouth and a hummingbird ass”. What ever but a little kaopectate(?) for his mouth would not hurt. !!

    • hibp

      Name calling instead of talking about the ISSUE!! That is exactly what GAME mathews is playing……..he can’t defend the policies so he is name calling TYPICAL LIBERAL TACTIC!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Teddy

    I still think Newt should be our candidate for President!

    • Rick

      Ok’ Teddy, I’d like to see a debate between the Newt and obozo. When it was over, obozo wouldn’t be standing behind the podium; he would be hiding behind it.

  • tobyblue

    Chris Matthews has never confused the truth with a lie and has to be the biggest race baiter on the planet

    • fort9erdon

      No, now lets be honest. Matthews comes in no better than third, in race baiting, behind Al “Tawana Brawley” Sharpton, and the “rev-runnnnnd Jesse Jackson”!

  • fliteking

    A liberal mixing it up with Newt is the same as bringing a sling-shot to a gun fight. Duh.

    • Mr. Peanut

      Newt stuck it to him and he’s so fricking dumb he doesn’t see it. I think with him leading the Dem cheerleading squad they can hang it up

    • http://www.facebook.com/karl.m.williams Karl M Williams

      It is fun to watch Newtie having a battle of wits with an unarmed man.

    • fliteking

      Yes indeed.

    • WASP

      Actually, in a debate with any libtard-democrap (or nearly anyone else),  Newt would mop the floor with them.
