Wow. Chris Matthews Stopped Just Short Of Calling Out Willard Romney For The Racist That He Is

" I believe he looks down on the president for reasons, none of them that are good."

Willard Romney, if you were half the man the president is you would be twice the man you are now.

He lusts after the power that Pres. Obama already has.

Although Mittens cannot grasp this, the main point is: Most bright sociopaths can accumulate a fortune as Romney has, if given the same advantages he was given. Pres. Obama has accomplished far more of value to the world in the last four years than Mittens has in his entire life. How dare he look down upon someone whose contributions are far superior to his.

The answer to how dare he is a foul mix of jealousy, insecurity, reinforcement by yes-men, and entitlement.

African Americans were cursed by God and not quite human. This is the church Mittens grew up in, and became a bishop in. He was an adult by the time church doctrine was changed by one of those amazing "revelations" LDS leaders are prone to.

I grew up with an intensely racist father, and believe me, it's a struggle to overcome that legacy, even when you try desperately hard to do so. Mittens has never tried desperately hard to do anything except maybe make money, so I doubt overcoming his racist upbringing has been high on his list of priorities.

I think Chris Matthews is on to something with his assessment.
