On the Sunday, April 20, Melissa Harris-Perry show on MSNBC, as host Harris-Perry chastised Democrats for not bragging about ObamaCare for the year's midterm elections, she at one point mocked Americans angry about having their health insurance plans cancelled, which she referred to as "crappy plans," as she lamented that Democrats are not boasting about ObamaCare or declaring, "Yeah, you can't keep your crappy plans. Just deal with that!"

Her mockery of the ObamaCare-induced insurance cancellations came as she compared Republicans to people who flip houses and brag about doing only a little work, as she characterized Democrats, by contrast, as people who do substantial work on houses but fail to boast about it adequately to potential buyers. Harris-Perry:

'Just Deal With That'

As another Democrat once said, "Better put some ice on that."

She’s a good example of why there should be a la carte pay TV. Then she’d better hope her two loyal viewers are rich idiots.

Unfortunately the a la carte issue is on the back burner for now and looks like it will stay there for a while.

Harris-Perry was associate professor at the Center for African American Studies at Princeton University and left in 2011 after being denied a full professorship because of “questions about her work and an assessment of where she is” in her career, according to the Center’s director at the time,

Every time I see Melissa I want to punch her in the face..she needs a good ass kicking, maybe it might put some sense into that head of her..but Im afraid that Communism is so embedded into her there is really no hope.
Yeah Im hoping we have a better year next year, get a good draft pick, make some much needed trades..Mavs COULD have won today but too many jump shots, went away from what worked

Beck added that those who criticized Perry are worse than the MSNBC host herself. “I fear this time, our side sees blood in the water and is going after her and MSNBC,” he said. “It’s more than wrong than anything she said here, especially since their intent is to hurt and destroy, and hers was not.”

Beck is final proof to me that, though alcoholics get better, they never recover their original minds.

I’d be satisfied with exporting her to Zimbabwe or someplace similar.

Heck I’ll even head up the committee for her “Send MHP On Permanent Vacation” fund. :)

Harris, Sr., the dean of Afro-American affairs at the University of Virginia and Diana Gray, a white community college professor and activist who worked for non-profits that assisted poor communities. Melissa has said of her heritage, “I’ve never thought of myself as biracial. I’m black.”
