The MSNBC crew was in rare form tonight accusing Republicans of being… wait for it… racists!

Via Mediaite:

“This is strategy. Make sure as few blacks as possible vote this election… treat the president like he’s driving on the Jersey turnpike. Stop him for his papers. Make him show his papers. That’s what they did to him. That’s how they treated the president.”

If you dare watch the above video you are going to hear stuff like this:

[R]achel Maddow noted how the Romney campaign is continuing with the attacks on Obama over welfare, saying that it seems to be “stok[ing] white voters’ economic resentment about lazy welfare recipients and the black president who wants to give them your hard-earned money.” Sharpton said that the Republicans are not even being subtle about racially-charged attacks on the president, and said that the GOP should stop injecting such “poison” into the presidential race.
