Liberal cable anchor Chris Matthews, who in 2010 used the phrase "shuck and
jive," on Wednesday assailed Sarah Palin as racist for using the phrase "
shuck and jive." Referring to a Facebook post the former Alaska governor
wrote about Obama and Libya, Matthews ranted, "You know, a dog whistle is a
dog whistle...A trumpet call is another."
The MSNBC host insisted that "shuck and jive" has "a particular ethnic
connection" and "to throw it at the president as an ethnic shot is pretty
blatant." On July 7, 2010, Matthews, while talking to Rachel Maddow and her
visit to Afghanistan, wondered, "What has it been like, as you shuck and
jive, hang out with the men over there, the women over there, in uniform
risking their lives every day?" The late Tim Russert also used the term on
July 18, 2003. |
