The sad rantings of deranged lunatic.
(Newsbusters) — After playing a clip of Michele Bachmann longing for a return to the “Founders’ vision of a constitutionally conservative government,” MSNBC’s Chris Matthews on Monday assumed the Republican presidential candidate meant “slavery.”
The Hardball anchor offered bizarre analogies, questioning former RNC Chair Michael Steele on Bachmann’s 2012 campaign: “What is this, Michael? The Protestant Reformation? That somehow we’re going back to the purity of the original Christian church?”
Immediately jumping to the worst interpretation, Matthews continued, “We’re going back to the original perfection of slaveholders and how perfect they were and government is the enemy. She speaks pure Tea Party lingo.”
After Steele asserted that Bachmann was simply “reminding us of foundational principles,” the liberal anchor smeared, “What? Slavery?”
