HYSTERICAL MSNBC HOST GOES BONKERS ON AIR

A talk-show host this weekend on MSNBC, widely considered a heavily left-leaning news network, suddenly erupted into a screaming rant after one of her guests suggested Obama wasn’t acknowledging the “risks” entrepreneurs take in America’s economy. “What is riskier than living poor in America? Seriously!” host Melissa Harris-Perry shouted on her self-titled show yesterday. “I am sick of the idea that being wealthy is risky!”

Harris-Perry was discussing welfare reform and economic class mobility with a panel of guests.

One guest, Nancy Giles, described as a “social commentator,” suggested it was public education and low-cost health care that enabled people to move out of lower economic classes.

But Monica Mehta, described as a “business/finance expert,” countered that class mobility is fueled by entrepreneurs “taking risks,” and began to imply that Obama’s “You didn’t build that” speech was indicative of anti-entrepreneurial bias.

But Mehta didn’t have the opportunity to finish her thought.

“What is riskier than living poor in America? Seriously! What in the world is riskier than being a poor person in America?” the host interrupted. “I live in a neighborhood where people are shot on my street corner. I live in a neighborhood where people have to figure out how to get their kid into school because maybe it will be a good school and maybe it won’t. I am sick of the idea that being wealthy is risky! No! There is a huge safety net that whenever you fail, we’ll catch you and catch you and catch you! Being poor is what is risky. We have to create a safety net for poor people, and when we won’t because they happen to look different from us, it is the pervasive ugliness. We cannot do that!”

In retrospect I must admit that we had a bunch of empty chairs in the office today. Maybe one of those was Obama, and he may still be there working his magic around the clock?!?!

My favorite is still that ed guy. he is a nut job of the highest order. he reminds me of a tourette’s patient on crack

Look for old ed to be his usual snot dangling, vomit-stained, fly opened, gin-reeking drunk for the balance of the Rat convention.
In fact there's a rumor Big Ed was so drunk after leaving his neighborhood NBC bar last week that he ran into that little four-eyed fruitcake Chris Hayes and knocked him off his two-wheeler in front of NBC.

Two days after the seventh anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, Harris-Perry tweeted that the abandoned house in the 7th ward that she and her husband had bought and were restoring was destroyed during Hurricane Isaac

Couldn't happen to a more deserving idiot.

Schadenfreude, baby.

Being a poor person anywhere else in the world.

This is so correct it required emphasis

“I live in a neighborhood where people are shot on my street corner. ...We have to create a safety net for poor people, and when we won’t because they happen to look different from us...”

I bet the people who were shot on her street corner did not “look different” from her or the people who shot them.

Doh, this is such a common occurance on MSLSD that it isn’t even news anymore. What would be news is if they hired someone that actually made sense.

“What is riskier than living poor in America?...

Having sex with a progressive.

Risk assessment is the determination of quantitative or qualitative value of risk related to a concrete situation and a recognized threat (also called hazard). Quantitative risk assessment requires calculations of two components of risk (R):, the magnitude of the potential loss (L), and the probability (p) that the loss will occur. wikipedia..

There are sooooooo many discussions this woman could 'lose it' in - folks would be sitting around clueless as to what she's ranting about... Risk management, risk adverse investors, risk assessment...

[Solson]

Good work on the facts.

" They don’t even have any ‘content’ to defend with, so they resort to screaming and changing the subject and vacillating on positions "

Noticed in the video behind them there was a TV screen with a fish hook in the water with the word " RACE " as bait ?

They are running out of everything to run with so they reach deep into their bag of tricks and use their old used ace in the hole " YELL RACISM " .
But the thing is ?
Even that is getting old because now ? today ?
When people hear that but look at their bills ?
Unemployment slips ?
No food in the kitchen ?
They yawn.... and are becoming more and more indifferent when someone uses race as a excuse.

[American Constitutionalist]

Ad in there regulatory risk.

" Being poor is not taking a risk. It is simply the state of having little money. "

To put it in more simplified terms for the business illiterate ignorant Liberals.

There are some who risked their capital to start a business and it didn't pan out as the way they hoped for.

It could have happened because ?

Poor location ?
Bad management ?
The economy was in a downturn ?
Bad neighborhood with crime ?
Over bearing regulations and taxes ?


People becoming poor can have many reasons why they became poor.
Some have risked and lost all their capital and became poor.

[American Constitutionalist]

" Dear lady the poor are killing each other because the social safety net has destroyed the social fabric of the family. Boys are growing up with out fathers because the social safety net has made fathers financially unnecessary. Fathers no longer feel any responsibility to support their offspring. The honor of being a father has become the millstone that drags a young man down. Why get married and be responsible when the government will feed, cloth and house the little rug rats. "


And you can put all the blame on the feminist for that.

The women thought that they can be freed from and emancipated from their husbands and rely on the Government, however ? all of us have to suffer for a few liberal women who want to be some how " FREE ".

N.O.W. and Women's Lib.... the cost of unintended consequences, or is it ? was it intended as so ? by the Socialist and Commies to bring down America ?

What we are seeing now folks are the fruits of some radical liberal women, the Socialist, and Commies.

“You might be an economic illiterate if you believe that roads create business success instead of the other way around.”

I believe it was Senator Rand Paul who made this statement this summer.
