[VIDEO] Bozell, Hannity Slam Matthews for Charging Half of America as Racist for Disapproving of Obama

It doesn't take a special occasion for Chris Matthews to smear conservatives as racist, but the 50th anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King Junior's "I Have a Dream" speech was too good for the Hardball host to pass up. During special coverage of Wednesday's festivities, Matthews smeared "half the country" as opposing the chief executive because of the color of his skin, not the political and philosophical content of his governance.
"Let's try to follow the logic of Dr. Matthews here," NewsBusters publisher Brent Bozell told Fox News host Sean Hannity on the August 29 edition of his eponymous program. "First he says if you're a Republican or a conservative" who dares to oppose any of Obama's policies, "you're a racist" but yet "if you can't find any evidence of any Republican or conservative saying anything racist, well, that means they're just not being honest about their racism." [watch the full segment below the page break]

"This is the same man who's also given lectures to Republicans denouncing" their use of "ethnic" dog-whistles like "Chicago," "urban," and "that third-rail word that we don't ever want to use, apartment," the Media Research Center founder reminded Hannity.
