Yes many politicians often have children who then grow up and adopt black children in order to gain political advantage AFTER you've already run for office. And did you just say "learn to read"?
I can understand People laughing When a politician that belongs to a religion That teaches That people that are nonwhite Are that way Because god was punishing them for not helping Fight the devil And when asked in an interview he stated he believes everything Religion teaches yes learn to read
To be fair, it was a guest who made the comment. Not sure how exactly a network can fire a guest. Also to be fair, MSNBC quickly got rid of Don Imus after his "nappy-headed hoes" comment. I know, as an educator, I'd almost surely be fired if I made such a joke in class, but I'd like to believe that if I had a guest speaker who made such a comment, I'd just get off with a warning to better screen my guests...at least after the first incident.
Don't even try to rationalize away Melissa Harris-Perry's role in that. She invited everything that followed by singling out Romeny and his family for leftwingers to sneer at and then pointing out the nature of their adopted child. She knew the likely range of replies that such a set up would probably return, and she received exactly what she wanted at-the-time. It was only after she got called on her deliberate act of Race Baiting BY THE RIGHT that she realized that for one of the few times in leftwing political Mainstream Media history she was actually going to be held accountable.
Some of these guys think they're doing black people a favor by NOT calling them the "N" word. - - - Updated - - - Wow, I missed that one,what did they call him? - - - Updated - - - Why waste thier time doing that?....Fox News and the GOP are going to do it for them. White people are so oppressed these days.
LOL, ok I will learn to read coming from a guy who cant use capital letters or periods correctly. If you're going to insult someone by telling them to learn to read you should at least learn where and when to use capital letters and periods. Yes the Romney's believe that their religion teaches non whites are being punished so much so that they actually adopted a black child. Do you people ever sit back and read your remedial bile? It fantastic how libs make racist comments against the Romneys then blame it on them. Oh yeah and now you are off topic. LOL
Wrong. They had a picture set up and ready to go it was planned ahead of time. Watch the video again. Call it what it is. Racism. If she was so opposed to it why did she set the gag up in the first place? Did they just want to show a nice family picture of the Romneys? F no. They wanted to single out the humor in the black baby in the middle of a white family. Truly disgusting morons. It has no defense as I said unless you have no integrity. And if you are an educator you should already know this type of behavior should not be tolerated.
Well she did apologize for the comment. This guy basically said he stands by his comment. I bet if this fella genuinely apologized he could have gotten by.

She apologized only because of the backlash. If she was genuine she wouldn't have done it in the first place. This just proves racism is alive and well on both sides of the fence and when you have an administration that wafts those flames racists tend to flare up where they typically wouldn't making a bad situation even worse.
I'm glad you proved the obvious. Doesn't change the fact that this guy deserved what he got. I honestly don't care what his politics are.
I think the guy should have held his ground, but he was probably getting a lot of hate mail and threats of reprisal from "free speech" liberals.
MSNBC didn't elect him to office; the people did so it would make sense if people pressured him to resign.
And meanwhile- the man who actually called President Obama a 'Ni***r' never apologized, even when given an opportunity. Does it even bother you that this man called President Obama a "Ni***r'? - - - Updated - - - Imagine- 'free speech liberals' speaking their mind......
No I proved leftists only count racism when it fits their ideology. Just read this thread, they even state making fun of a child solely because of his skin color isn't racist, they say it was just a gaffe. I say total BS.
So since MSNBC fired no one for this it seems they must condone racism against children. I guess the left only cares about racists with white skin which in itself is racist.
Sure it bothers me. The guy has the freedom to call him whatever he wants and everyone else has the freedom to create a backlash. If youre thinking I support this guy your wrong. If hes that unstable the last place he should be is in the chair of a sheriff. All Im asking is to treat all racists the same. Now why haven't any of you demanded MSNBC fire all of their employees involved in the racists attack on a child?
Yeah. People tend to be defensive of the people in their political ideology. You see this on both sides of the aisle. And it has literally (*)(*)(*)(*) all to do with this man. This man called a black man... and not just any black man... The president of the United States a (*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*). He deserved what he got.
Pretty pathetic when the true patriots are reduced to defending a moron like this by screaming "Mom, but what about Johhny!?" How's that GOP outreach to minorites goin'?
Whats the matter I thought leftists had no tolerance for racists? Why cant you bring yourself to support your own ideology? This was racist and I know you know it.
Nope, just a guy wondering why people who shouted racist accusations for the last 6 years cant muster a microgram of integrity to call out racism when its committed by someone on MSNBC. Clever? maybe, Correct......definitely.
