Insert foot into mouth: Chris Matthews

I'm not heavy on politics, but I did manage to sit down and watch part of President Obama's State of the Union Address last night. Well, after a quick Chipotle run. Don't judge me. I like the idea of giving small businesses a break for raising wages & hiring additional talent.  

Anywho, I came across this video of Chris Matthews post-SOTU commentary on MediaBistro.com:

Wow.

Later on, he clarifies his "I forgot he was black tonight" statement:

My take on the remark? Good luck with that one.
