Chris Matthews, who got in a bit of trouble for saying that he forgot Barack Obama was black during the State of the Union address-perhaps because the president was not wearing his usual gold chains and dashiki-quickly issued a clarification. Turns out he meant it in a really good way!

I forgot Chris Matthews was white - until my pupils adjusted to the blinding glare of his pasty face.
Chris Matthews is not unlike an aggressive lab puppy. He just can't help it, poor boy: He's just so damn glad to be alive and on teevee, saying and doing anything he wants (ruff!). If you don't take him too seriously, he's fine. Nothing that wrong with Matthews that cannot be remedied by a good training program. And always remember kiddies: you have to be careful not to scold your Labrador Retriever when you find a 'mess,' which, with Chris, is often.
Sit, Matthews sit! Good boy!
...only because Joe swiped the dashiki to wear the afterparty.
You know, I just remembered Rachel Maddow is a lesbian.
