MSNBC's Harris-Perry Uses 'Derogatory' Term ObamaCare Two Weeks Before Condemning It
MSNBC/youtube ^ | Dec 9, 2013 | yazchattiest

MSNBC weekend host Melissa Harris-Perry has a tendency to wax sanctimonious when the camera light goes on and she takes to the air. So it's our pleasure to note her utter hypocrisy when it comes to how to describe the president's signature legislative accomplishment, the ObamaCare health care overhaul.

On her December 8 program, Perry had the audacity to claim that the use of the term "ObamaCare" was "a derogatory term... conceived up by a group of wealthy white men who needed a way to put themselves above and apart from a black man."

During her opening rant, Perry doubled down on the so-called "controversial word" arguing that ObamaCare was "meant to shame and divide and demean" a way of making President Obama feel "inferior and unequal and to diminish his accomplishments."

The segment wouldn't have been so offensive if not for the hilarious irony of the situation.

Just because you have a lisp, doesn’t prove you are smart.

Such things are considered a pull at the lever to move up the corporate ladder.

Think of Dayna the waitress taking her shot at receiving donations.

Being liberal means you never have to think and are forbidden to remember. Obviously you can’t be responsible for what you fail to remember and it is easier to talk when you can disengage the brain!

Her whole gig is to make the most inflammatory, offensive statements possible in order to generate some buzz on internet sites. We shouldn’t play into her hands by posting about her sensationalism. She’s best left ignored. Just as MSNBC is generally ignored by television viewers.

You can really sense the coaching in the first part.

The Left really doesn’t like blacks who think for themselves (Obama/teleprompter) and don’t mind making them look like total fools.

Thats why the left hates black Conservatives so much..they refuse to stay on the reservation and pick cotton like the left wants blacks to continue doing..what the left hates worse than anything are two kinds of people, black Conservatives and Conservative women because Conservative women are pro life, something the left despises

I believe like Rush Limbaugh often says, let them keep talking. The more they talk the more people learn who they are.

You can certainly let them talk but I see no reason to hand them a megaphone.
