Ma….’ He paused a beat, then continued his joke with, ‘Caucasian.’” [Roll Call]

Well, Georgians, you had the choice between a racist pile of shit or a guy with no legs & one arm. Look what you dragged of of the sewer & sent to D.C.!
Even Louisiana voted for the crook not the racist a few years ago.
Thanks a lot!
I am from Georgia and I'm pretty sure we didn't elect this empty-suit racist.(We have touch screen voting.) In that same election we replaced a good governor, Roy Barnes, with a corrupt abuser of power who likened Barnes to a rat. Gov. George Ervin Perdue III has orchestrated the decline and demise of public education and a host of valuable social services. Racist and thief and confederate flag ressurector, He likes to fly around in a helicopter on my nickel, making me long for a SAM.
I can't watch Chris Matthews anymore. I thought he might have something intelligent to say. I managed to live through several wretched screaming episodes (I call them episodes cause I think of panic attacks) of "Hardball". Ears bleeding, I listened for content, all I heard were shrieks of fingernails on a chalkboard in his unique high school prom queen's voice. Without any content at all and diffently not worth the bleeding, I realized that changing the channel to Shepard Smith??? The bleeding stopped and bam! the content was so much more intelligent.
If I were granted 3 wishes in my life the first would be that Chris Matthews could only speak to people that loved him.
After all, if I wanted to hear the news, polls, positions of politicians yelled at me; I would stop on the streets and listen to homeless preachers.
Whomever decided to give Chris Matthews a speaking role has serious tone deaf issues. Please just close your eyes and listen...he squeals at his audience and guests like a female pig in season.
