Now, after his “Oh God” crack was revealed, Chris Matthews of MSNBC has issued a clarification:

I was taken aback by that peculiar stagecraft, the walking from somewhere in the back of this narrow hall, this winding staircase looming there, the odd anti-bellum look of the scene. Was this some mimicking of a president walking along the state floor to the East Room?

Antebellum means “pre-Civil War.”

So, is Matthews making a jaded remark related to Jindal’s southern accent, being from a deep southern Confererate state, Jindal is non-white and the fact that he is criticizing the first African-American President?

Take your pick – all of the above.

Ace has more about this “outsourced” comment from this further Matthews commentary on Jindal’s response.
