If you want to gauge how rabidly secular the left has become, look no further than “The Rachel Maddow Show” Wednesday evening.
MSNBC’s flagship prime-time hour was guest-hosted by Joy Reid, who joined other hosts of color in housekeeping duties Thanksgiving week, filling in for their white host betters, most of whom were on vacation giving thanks, no doubt, that “the help” would do a serviceable job keeping their audiences enthused about the show trials beginning in the House of Representatives in January.
And Joy Reid, at least, did not disappoint.
She even managed to end the Thanksgiving Eve broadcast by simultaneously distorting history and slamming Republicans while delivering the obligatory good wishes for the holiday to come.
First there was the title of her closing segment: “Thank Abraham Lincoln for Thanksgiving.” In fact, Honest Abe had nothing to do with the Thanksgiving holiday save to “invite my fellow citizens” to observe a common date for their Thanksgiving feasts.
t was the U.S. Congress in 1789 that requested President George Washington to issue the first Thanksgiving Proclamation of the federal government, setting aside the 26th Day of November to be observed “by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many signal favors of Almighty God,” formalizing traditions that had come down from English settlers in Virginia and Massachusetts more than a century before.
And why didn’t Reid use Washington’s Proclamation? Perhaps because it contained no less than a dozen references to a transcendent creator to whom we owe thanks, an image anathema to the vast majority of progressives, who are hostile to the idea of any governmental expression that presumes the existence of a personal God.

You can’t give what you don’t have.
All of us have had moments in our lives that we were close to despair and far from feelings of thanksgiving.
You dated my ex?
Who the hell are the thanking?
That is true.
“MSNBC’s flagship prime-time hour was guest-hosted by Joy Reid, who joined other hosts of color in housekeeping duties Thanksgiving week,”
Oh how I love this! Dey puts doze Black “servants” in dere soz de “crackers” who normally has deez gigs, can go hab dey’s Tanksgivin’! And they get all “worked up” when someone uses the “N”-Word!
I’m surprised she gave Lincoln credit. She probably doesn’t know he was a Republican.
This so reminds me of a conversation I had with an ex-Muslim. I asked why the Muslims radicals run on hate? He said, that first they GENERATE HATE...then second, they FIND A REASON FOR IT.
Welcome to the mindless, useless left.
I think you answered your own question.
So was MLK!
Joy Reid is the racist homophobe no?
Twas my intent lol. Thanks and God Bless
With this stupid fake reporter/commentator, “There is no JOY in Real NEWSVILLE this holiday, year, or century”.
The best thing that can be said about her is that “Horton doesn’t give a WHO about Joyless Reid”. Neither does he give a DAMN, like the rest of the sane people in America.
Ah hell, let’s continue to critique her. I’m in a holiday mood, the holiday being the “Verbal Inquisition”.
Joy: There is not joy in her life. She’s a nasty, sourpuss, self-absorbed, non-representative Black racist.
Reid: She can’t, at least not History books that tell the truth. Maybe she reads “The Book of the Damned”, “Satan’s Little Helpers” or “The Black Manifesto: How to Destroy Whitey in 10 Simple Lessons” by Jackson/Sharpton/Farrakhan and Waters, the “Four Black Horses-Asses of the Apocalypse”.
A fitting fool for a foolish Marxist network.
Joy Reid still being employed gives every other racist homophobe an out when the mob howls their name.
It’s a cinch Joy is thanking MSNBC.
