As I said earlier, her mother is a White Mormon and she blasted the anti-Mormon folks who trashed Romney as attacking her people.


I think that is an interesting and important piece of information. However, she was obviously talking about how the black baby stuck out in that pic. What was her purpose for this?

Don't care for Harris-Perry but I'm not offended, just like I'm not offended by most things Harris-Perry is offended by.

Yes, Harris-Perry would be outraged if Limbaugh said something similar about a Dem politician. But outrage for the sake of outrage doesn't help.

what does that have anything to do with it? You more than any other, should know that political party comes before everything else. Including race. Political party is THE most important thing to lefties. You go against the party, and you will be burned by the left.

Example: Herman Cain, Sarah Palin, Ben Carson, etc...

I don't think this is a story except for the fact MSNBC has to suspend someone every week for shitting out their mouth. It's more of a cultural problem on the network.

Has MSNBC figured out that the Robertson's have an adopted black son? I think their heads would explode.

Oh just ignore him. If he could be on that panel and laugh at the mixed race family, he would. He's another intolerant liberal.

That's incredibly accurate.

I think Willie Jr is the adopted one right?

This would require MHP not being a terrible progressive count.

The idea that party trumps everything is bullshite, as Harris-Perry herself demonstrated when she called out the folks who attacked Romney's Mormonism. Similarly, I've heard a number of Black Republicans call foul over the religious and birther attacks on Obama. And in 2008, I remember a number of Republican women, including Bay Buchanan, call fould when they felt Hillary was being attacked in a sexist manner.
