MSNBC Host Compares Gitmo Inmates to American Slaves Daniel Halper May 26, 2013 10:38 AM

On MSNBC, host Melissa Harris-Perry compared Gitmo terrorist inmates to American slaves:

"This is the time to reaffirm our Americanness," said Harris-Perry. "I also appreciate that the hunger strikers are not trying to die. They're trying to generate autonomy in the context of something that strips their humanity--something we certainly know about from the experience of American slavery. And that the language of before I would be a slave, I'd be buried in my grave and go home to my Lord and be free. Just that idea of creating human freedom within the context of horrible human conditions."

I am recovering from a nasty bout of a stomach virus. ! just had a relapse. Liquid diet is the pits, especially on a holiday.

MSNBC's first Black African American Cracker? She must be embarrassed to be a Black female,
for using the Michael Jackson bleach bathing solution of ignorance.

Are MSDNC hosts required to subject themselves to a lobotomy before they become hosts, or do they subject themselves to the procedure voluntarily?

If they were slaves, wouldn't expect to get some sort of work out of the bastards?

I like Louisiana's Angola State Penitentiary model.

Warden Burl Cain once said that the key to running a peaceful maximum security prison was that "you've got to keep the inmates working all day so they're tired at night."

In its desperation to deny facts and the simple truth, the left has been reduced to a state of constant hysteria where any lie is justified in the furtherance of their ‘noble’ cause. It’s the kind of political insanity George Orwell described and predicted in 1984.

This is Affirmative Action in action. Racist hatemongers get the jobs while people who sincerely want to better the country are passed over.

I hope that an ancestor of a slave hears her disgusting remarks and sues her into poverty.

If MHP were living in a fourth-floor walkup apartment with no hot water & rode the bus to work & donated 3/4ths of her salary to charity, I MIGHT withdraw the hypocrisy charge.

She’d still be a rotten Commie-loving leftie.

In fact, she’s still a hypocrite unless she moves to Cuba & lives like an ordinary Cuban is forced to: rationing, secret police, poverty, crumbling apartment buildings, the whole Marxist enchilada with no meat, cheese, or guacamole.

Isn't this the same dirt bag who declared that children should "BELONG" to the government and not their parents?

Shemya Island, Alaska would work. I knew a guy who was stationed there. LOL, he had very few kind words about the Air Force.

From wikipedia: The weather on Shemya is very drastic, though the temperatures only vary between single digits to the mid fifties, and the climate is perhaps the most equatorward low-altitude occurrence of a polar climate (ET) in the world, though it is extremely close to a subpolar oceanic climate (Cfc).

The island weather is most likely to be cloudy with a mist and the wind is often in the mid 30s to 40 mph.

If she is predicting that the Administration will grant these people citizenship and that their descendants will experience excessively high poverty, unemployment, crime, and incarceration rates, all the while complaining about the evils of 500 years of incarceration at GITMO, then she might be right.

Melissa Harris-Perry should be required to provide care and feeding of one in her residence for a week.

If she is still breathing, I’d bet she would be screaming to get him out of her care.

Melissa Harris-Perry, similar libs, similar politicians come up with these do-gooder causes, but they seem to distance themselves from participating or being responsible for the results and unintended consequences.
