In a nauseating display of mean-spirited ignorance, MSNBC's Melissa Harris-Perry and her panel of five ridiculed Mitt Romney's black grandchild as something "that's not like the others." The MSNBC segment was a look back at 2013, and for some reason a Romney family photo that shows former Massachusetts governor with a grandchild on each knee was cherry-picked for mockery. The only apparent reason for the ridicule was purely based on the race of Kieran Romney, the governor's adopted grandchild who happens to be black. You can hear panelist Pia Glenn singing the lyrics to the "Sesame Street" song, "One of these things doesn't belong here." After finishing the ditty, Glenn says, "And that little baby, front and center, would be the one.” Dean Obeidallah then attacks the child as token, "“I think this picture is great. It really sums up the diversity of the Republican party, the RNC. At the convention, they find the one black person.” Throughout, Harris-Perry chuckles along approvingly. Frequently I write about how provincial and narrow-minded America's cultural and media elites are. Over and over, they prove themselves to be shockingly ignorant of the world outside their bubbled universities and cloistered social and professional lives -- all of which are obsessed with race. Out here in the real world, though, a mixed-race family is not a freak show or occurrence. I'm in a mixed-race marriage and it not only never comes up (and I live in the South), I don’t even think about it until the elite media's mean-girl leftists act as though such a thing is bizarre.

These are genuinely ugly people, aren’t they?
Great looking family. As far as MSNBC goes, they’re just jealous that this baby is going to have a better home life than they ever had. And will probably end up being more wealth than all of them combined.
The reflex laughter by that liberal panel on MSNBC merely underscores their insecurity and anxiety. Their primordial fear is coming true. Their values, decadent habits and values have resulted in the destruction and well being of the African-American family. The stark reality is that this child has better prospects with his adoptive family than his biological parents who are probably both alive.
and yet, this same panel would be wetting themselves with glee and adoration if this was Chelsea’s adopted baby shown with Bill (and/or Hillary) Clinton.
Most families win praise for adopting children....
Her job is safe she is a black liberal communist..
The Communist Party USA and the Democratic Socialists of America don’t see what the big deal is when it comes to MSNBC Host’s Melissa Harris-Perry’s latest 30-second spot advocating for society to move beyond its “private idea” of kids belonging to parents and families and to the notion that they belong to “whole communities.”
It’s sad and ironic that a black woman would ridicule a white family for adopting a black child. With tens of thousands of orphaned and abandoned black children needing homes, I wonder if she’s adopted any. I bet not.
saw a pic on Twitter yesterday and think that her mom may be white. which makes what she said even MORE ridiculous.
Will this child turn out to be a future knockout player or Son of Barack (SOB) thug? Unlikely.
ya think?
yes, i think. i’m sorry if this is stating the obvious, but i have never laid eyes on the woman before so i had no idea of her parentage until i saw the pic of her mom.
The truly filthy racist of MSNBC raise their heads.
“These are genuinely ugly people, aren’t they?”
All leftist thought, from the limousine liberalism of a George Clooney to the murderous horrors of Mao, Stalin, and Pol Pot, is of and from Satan. Leftism is a contaminant in the human cognosphere, not a natural component of it.
Satan is smarter than we are, and he never sleeps. Those over whom he has the most influence are like maniacally evil energizer demons.
Every once in a while one of them escapes, like David Horowitz, but who knows how or why?
They don’t like truly affective affirmative action.
They should be renamed the ‘MSKKK’ channel...they want to play Alinsky word games, let us do the same.
Recently Melissa asserted that Obamacare is a racist term.
She is such a cute little thing it is too bad all that hateful
liberal bullshit has to so easily flow from those lisping lips.
I’m sure that Jesse Jackson is going to demand a meeting with MSNBC to demand concessions from them for their racist remarks......oh...huh?...MSNBC?.....I guess probably not.
Sorry, carry on.
Bashear-Harris-Perry = Ugly and very Angry Marxists.
But isn’t ugly anger one of the main components of Marxism, so I guess its about what people should come to expect.
I was shocked to find that over at DU they were condemning MSNBC for this.
