You don't have to accept my count argument. You can believe whatever you want regardless of how based in reality or not it may be.
What I was primarily responding to "I can't think of anything that makes that a good thing to say." Since it took all of 5 seconds of thought to come up with one (whether you accept its correctness or not), and since you're not stupid my assumption is either that you're being lazy, you lack curiosity about the views of other people, or you're being disingenuous. Being kind, I'll assume it is the first. It is just coincidence that the laziness happens to coincide with the worst possible way to read the comments that most supports a pre-existing condition of disliking Matthews. I dislike Matthews for pretty much the same reasons Jon Stewart ripped into him when his last book was released (essentially his view of the political game as perhaps more important than the political results).
But yes, I imagine that Matthews is pretty much in a constant state of amazement that a black man has become president and it has been mostly a non-issue. I'm in amazement at the same thing. If being amazed that race is a non-issue means I'm only viewing Obama through his race then I can live with that.
