On today's Melissa Harris-Perry show, the perpetually outraged Nina Turner of Ohio ripped Ted Cruz and Chris Christie for their language during this past week's debate: "to call the president a boy, those of us who understand African-American history—cause that's exactly what they called him was a boy—and you don't do that to anybody, and especially to an African-American man."
Republican candidates calling President Obama a "boy?" Objectionable! Just one tiny problem for Ms. Turner. They didn't. As can be seen in the debate clip that rolled, Ted Cruz said that "China is running over President Obama like he is a child." And Chris Christie called the president a "petulant child." Either Turner wasn't listening, or was making the unsubstantiated claim that referring to Obama as a child is "exactly" calling him a "boy." Crying racism everywhere is like crying wolf. It diminishes the impact when it really does occur.

I am outraged that Cruz and Christie called President Obama a “boy.” What? They didn’t?
Never mind then, but Nina Turner is still angry about it.
Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.
BOY! there I said it
Obama sure isn’t mature enough emotionally or intellectually....to be an authentic MAN!!
She’s a racist jerk.
Then they would be REALLY offended at what I would call him.
Typical Harris-Perry/MSNBC. Twist what was actually said in order to make it racial
Are they talking about that boy in the White House?
I am so glad I’m not her husband. She likely twists everything he tries to say, too.
Boy! Boy! HMMM!
she should Join the Trump Campaign Immediately
...sounds like Cruz is getting it from all sides...
LIVE BY THE LAWS AMERICA WAS FOUNDED UPON
GO.TRUMP.GO!!!
Sounds like she has NY Values
Any criticism of Our Glorious Leader is racist. There is no other reason to ever criticize him.
Perry is an ignorant race baiting POS and a disgrace to the human race.Period.
MSNBC is where she belongs along with Sharpton and all the other shills for the Boy in the WH
How is it that B-HO, being half and half (and 100% “man-child”), is automatically always defaulted as being BLACK. Why is that, Melitha Harrith?
People like Melissa and Nina find racism everywhere it isn’t. Just trying to keep the racist, BLM thugs pent-up.
Enemy islamist boy.
Actually Cruz and Christie had it wrong.
Obama is letting our adversaries run over us because he wants to lower this country’s standing in the world.
She heard what she wanted to hear. How else does she get to play the race card?
Who is she going to believe? The debate clips or her own lying ears?
