Chris Matthews Ignorantly Proclaims ‘We Don’t Have Any’ Black Senators

He's on MSNBC and they don't know much about the world outside their studio.

...
This is hardly the first time that Matthews has been busted for spouting off ignorant, tasteless remarks about race.
....
Last year, NewsBusters caught the deranged MSNBC host claiming that he lived in Washington, DC, when in fact he lives in a wealthy Maryland suburb, less than 1 percent of whose residents are black.

Despite these missteps (and I have given only a partial listing), Matthews has persisted in making baseless accusations that Republicans are actually the clueless, racist ones, not himself. In 2011, the MSNBC host smelled racism when analyzing poll numbers showing declining support among white voters for President Obama. He was echoing a previous statement he made earlier that year when he denounced “ older white people” for noticing race “all the time.”

Given that Matthews is 67 according to Wikipedia and that he himself says he voted for a black man purely because of his race, it would appear that Chris Matthews is the first documented example of one of these despicable “older white people” obsessed with skin color.
