Why do you have to be racist to disagree with the first lady having 26 aides? Chris "chill running up my leg" Matthews chimes in that it racist to criticize the number of Michelle's aides..and that people are mad they have a black First Lady.
Matthews then asks Jonathan Martin a senior political writer for Politico if he thinks that is the case and Jon says "Yes there is no question that is part of it..and that the racists are part of the Conservative base in Texas"
This is what jopurnalism in Ameirca has now become
