Matthews: GOP Desires Ruling Class of ‘White Men of Property’
By Eliana Johnson
November 26, 2012 7:22 P.M.

Chris Matthews wondered aloud tonight – on national television – why “the Romney folks feel that this is their country to rule.” (They do?) He posited an answer: Republicans, said Matthews, rally behind the thinking of the Founding Fathers. That’s bad, because they believed in a “ruling class” that consists of “white men of property.”

"people of property without regard to race, color, creed or naturally-occurring gender" is my preference.
According to the Bible, "know" means "yes."

I prefer a leader who supports the makers, not a community organizer who caters to the takers.
Biden is an illegitimate President.  Change my mind.

I like white people.  

Most everybody else does too.

Why do you think black people keep moving to the suburbs?

Chris Matthews does what he does best, throwing hissy fits and self-hatred.  :mental:

How about only those who actually pay taxes get a vote?

Thanks to the 0bama economy lots of people no longer own property but are still decent folks.

I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

I could get behind the idea of "you receive public assistance because you don't have a job, you don't get to vote". Kinda like Mom and Dad don't give the kids a say in how the house is run.

That tingle up Matthews' leg has reached his brain -- what little there is of it.

Ah, and MSNBC. No matter where they slot Chrissy, he just doesn't stack up.   :loser2:

Doesn't even have half the viewership of the Fox lineup.

Mr. Matthews, if you have to make shit up to "prove the un-proveable"......... :loser:
“The national budget must be balanced. The public debt must be reduced; the arrogance of the authorities must be moderated and controlled. Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”
