Harris-Perry: GOP’ers Concerned Gov’t May Confiscate Kids, As They Did Slaves And Native Americans
Mediaite ^ | April 9, 2013 | Noah Rothman

Following what she describes as a “flood of vitriolic responses” from conservatives outraged at the implication that the state should have more responsibility for child-rearing than individual parents and families, MSNBC host Melissa Harris-Perry took to the pages of MSNBC.com to mock concerns about the network promo’s implications. She said that conservatives’ fears may be illogically rooted in the fact that America has, in the past, seized and “re-educated” the children of African slaves and Native Americans.

“One thing is for sure: I have no intention of apologizing for saying that our children, all of our children, are part of more than our households, they are part of our communities and deserve to have the care, attention, resources, respect and opportunities of those communities,” Harris-Perry wrote after informing her audience of her intention to “double down” on the statements she made in the MSNBC network promo.

When the flood of vitriolic responses to the ad began, my first reaction was relief. I had spent the entire day grading papers and was relieved that since these children were not my responsibility, I could simply mail the students’ papers to their moms and dads to grade! But of course, that is a ridiculous notion. As a teacher, I have unique responsibilities to the students in my classroom at Tulane University, and I embrace those responsibilities. It is why I love my job....

Just remember: when you take Harris-Perry and make it an anagram, and add an otter, it becomes...

HARRY-POTTER!

The culture war’s on, folks.

Only, Mzzz Hyphenated-Woman makes the opposition’s case by her reference to slavery & the auctioning of children. If enslaved people had no control over their lives & those of their children due to the use of brutal authority, why does she want the same thing now?

And...I sense a little fascistic glee on her part over the reaction of those (nasty racist sexist bigot homophobe) conservatives who oppose her views. Almost sounds like “You say you oppose our agenda. Who are you? We already own your children; your backward views will die off when you do.”

Tyrant Kim Un Hussein must be very pleased that his efforts to “FUNDAMENTALLY CHANGE THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA” are progressing so easily.

She is confusing DOING HER JOB (grading papers) that THE PEOPLE WHO ACTUALLY ‘OWN’ THE CHILDREN(their parents) PAY HER TO DO(through taxes) with a transfer of ownership from them to her.

Uhhh...slavery (and the KKK) were/are democrat institutions and let’s not forget that most of the original push to set aside any rights for Indians was instigated by that great democrat, Andy Jackson.

The democrat party is already trying to resurrect slavery with us as tax slaves so claiming rights over our kids is just a renewal of their traditional values.

FUBO, FAD, & down with the democrat party.

Remember she is relatively new and broadcasting thus she needs to create controversy in order to draw viewers. Secondly, she is black and resents whites thus must seem to support an idea anathema to us.

The true tragedy is the pernicious need of the American public for controversy and novelty. A moments reflection would indicate her verbal position reveals a total lack of knowledge of white family structure, values, manners and morals. I wish the American people would grow up.

1. Idiot Liberal says something Beyond Stupid.

2. People criticize the Liberal’s Beyond Stupid comment.

3. Idiot Liberal goes Beyond Stupid commenting on the Critics of her original Beyond Stupid comments.

Alinsky Lives, and we’re the only ones wearing the Sunglasses.
