Well, it appears the inmates are officially running the asylum at MSNBC. In case you missed it, this is now what passes for “journalism” on ObamAmerica…
Melissa Harris-Perry sports the latest in Progressive fashion
accessories. You sure have “come a long way baby!”
When Melissa Harris-Perry last popped up on my radar she was arrogantly informing us that our kids belong to the collective – not us. This time it was her immature reaction to the newly-enacted Texas Abortion Bill on her morning show last Sunday.
From Mediaite ~
“My producer Lorena made for me last week some tampon earrings,” Harris-Perry said as she put on the jewelry. “The Texas state legislature said that you couldn’t bring tampons in, when these women were going to, in fact, stand up for their own reproductive rights.”
I love that “reproductive rights.” Honey you have the right to reproduce (although some of us might wish you wouldn’t). You shouldn’t have the right to kill your baby.
During a second special session of the Texas legislature, security in the Capitol building briefly banned tampons from the rotunda for fear that the feminine products would be tossed at lawmakers passing the last-minute bill. The earlier protests had been so disruptive that Lieutenant Governor David Dewhurst had been unable to call a vote on the bill, resulting in an embarrassing but temporary setback for Texas Republicans, who vowed not to let demonstrators get the better of them again. But Capitol security got a bit overzealous in confiscating tampons from female protestors, a policy they quickly reversed after it garnered national attention.
At least Ms. Melissa’s antics provided Dennis Miller with some great twitter fodder ~ Miller Hits Harris-Perry on Earrings: ‘Should Only Be Allowed to Do Show Once a Month for 5 Days’
“A general dissolution of principles and manners will more
surely overthrow the liberties of America than the whole force of
the common enemy. While the people are virtuous they cannot be subdued;
but when once they lose their virtue then will be ready to surrender
their liberties to the first external or internal invader.”
