An MSNBC host is apologizing to Mitt Romney's family after she and guests on her show joked about a Christmas picture that showed the 2012 Republican presidential candidate's adopted, African-American grandson.
Melissa Harris-Perry said Tuesday her intention was to celebrate diversity, but the segment took an unexpected and offensive turn. The photo shows infant Kieran Romney with his grandparents and their 21 other grandchildren, all of them white.
One guest on her Sunday show, actress Pia Glenn, sang 'one of these things just isn't the same.' Comedian Dean Obeidallah, said it 'sums up the diversity of the Republican party.' Harris-Perry said she'd like to see Kieran marry Kanye West's daughter so West and Romney would be in-laws

Her two-two hour weekend shows are all about race baiting and victimizing.
Blacks, Gays, Hispanics, woman, all victims of the white heterosexual Christian.
Maybe someone told her after she said this that Romney wasn't a Christian, he is a Mormon.
Her intention was to celebrate diversity - bullshit !!!
She packed her program to mock conservatives - she should be fired ...
MSNBC doesn't fire their hosts for doing that.
They hire them to do that.
I said “should be fired” - not that she would.
And, MSNBC wonders why it doesn’t have any credibility ...
apparently she thought they should have hid the kid in the closet.
Her point was that like black conservatives, blacks who are raised by whites are not REAL blacks.
They don't deserve the special victim and moral authority status that a liberal black does.
But maybe someone told her that liberal Michael Steele is a Republican, and that Romney is a liberal, so it could be OK.
Not only do they hire people to mock conservatives, not just mock, but say the most disgusting vile things about them, I wouldnt be surprised if the b*tch gets a promotion. But you know what, I dont want her to get fired, I want people, ordinary people who might, due to the media implanting in their heads, that its the GOP that are the haters, to watch MSNBC and see who the REAL party of hate is..how they can sit there with a smile on their face and say the most disgusting things, about innocent children, just because they disagree with their parents polically
You know, I agree with you - No firing, just subjecting her to the wrath of those that she offended. I don’t think that anyone should be fired for their beliefs regardless of the fact that PC is a problem or that being a Christian is a problem - can’t you stupid folks just realize that there are different views out there and let things go...
That was the way I felt about Martin Bashir. He was a joke. I was sorry to see him go.
In the case of Melissa Harris Perry she is much smarter than that.
Her whole show is devoted to uniting blacks, gays, Hispanics , poor single woman, etc, in being victims on the counter attack against the white male heterosexual privileged society. She calls it ‘the machine’.
She calls for getting out the vote and protesting and threatening those elected with elections. Nothing has changed in America since 1800s in spite of Obama being elected, Yet she tells us that most Americans agree with her.
Mrs Martin Bashir
Id like to know what kind of ratings this jackass receives. I dont believe she is smart, this is the same woman who put tampons on her ears, she is INSANE, but heck you’d have to be a few pickles short of a burger to be on MSNBC. She has issues for sure, just hearing the vile crap that comes out of her mouth on a daily basis confirms that..but Im really not worried about her little program, you know what’s scarier, she is a TEACHER, doesn’t she teach at some school somewhere..now THAT is scary
MSNBC has decided their audience is victims of the white racist heterosexual privileged society.
It worked great for them in 2008 and 2012.
Not so great 2010, 2013 and we can guess 2014 wont work well for them either,
Then, I guess she isn't a REAL black, as I understand she was also raised by whites.............
Interesting point.
Her father was the first dean of African-American Affairs at the University of Virginia.[1] Her mother, Diana Gray, who is white, taught at a community college and was working on her doctorate when they met
Melissa Harris-Perry(From Wikipedia)
OK, its great to be mixed race but blacks raised by whites are not real blacks.
She should be ashamed of herself. I hope if she has any children, they weren’t watching her disgusting behavior.
I recall reading that one of the comments by someone on that pitiful panel had remarked that the photo was reflective of the ‘diversity’ in the gop.
So I’m wondering, just how many black children has San Fran Nancy’s kids adopted? How about Harry Reid’s kids, did they take in a black baby?
And let us never forget the Kennedy’s, how many black children have the collectively adopted?
I’m so over this race crap, and all unnecessary chatter it fills the air with...
Black racists are too stupid to even be subtle about it. kooks. They inspire violence like the knock out “game” which used to be known as lynching.
With respect, I don’t think her ridicule of the Romney family was stupid, even in the least.
On the first hand, she go to get her point out - make fun of white Christians AND a losing politician. Next she issues the perfunctory ‘apology’ that no one to which she directed her attack to would hear, or care.
Just like Bashir’s scatological attack on Palin, Perry’s attack on Romney ‘got out there.’ It will remain ‘there’ and the apologies have already disappeared from the minds of those liberals each was trying to reach in the first place.
Liberals are actually cruel and vicious creatures that should be considered the most dangerous and destructive animals on the planet.
They think they are slick, but they make asses of themselves. Watch. The racists ruined their careers in the long run after BO is out of office. They only ones who like racists are radicals and they won’t be socially dominate forever. The public grows weary of their stupidity.
