Progressive Arithmetic …

MSNBC’s Chris Matthews asked Thursday whether members of the Tea Party “count blacks as three-fifths” when they talk about the will of the American people.

Matthews was of course referring to when blacks were only counted as three-fifths of a person when it came to taxation and representation.

No … but we find it necessary to apply other “scaling factors” in our calculations:

Anticipated “liberal” votes cast in any given election = (5/3)*(#RegisteredDemocrats).

Chris Matthews is an idiot. The South wanted to count blacks without any percentage in order to have more representatives in Congress. It was the North who made the blacks count less in order to have more power.
