Hilarious: MSNBC host likens word 'ObamaCare' to n-word

MSNBC is the gift that keeps on giving, serving up propaganda intended to benefit the far left, but which in its absurdity repels people grounded in reality. Now, one of its hosts, Melissa Harris-Perry, already familiar to AT readers for her theater of the absurd political performance art, has played a race card so bizarre that it self-discredits. Real Clear Politics provides a transcript and video here, where you can read and view the entire thing, but here are some highlights:

I want to talk today about a controversial word. It's a word that has been with us for years. And like it or not, it's indelibly printed in the pages of American history. A word that was originally intended as a derogatory term, meant to shame and divide and demean. The word was conceived of by a group of wealthy white men who needed a way to put themselves above and apart from a black man. To render him inferior and unequal and to diminish his accomplishments.

This set-up reveals the theology of MSNBC, where "a group of wealthy white men" plays the same role for progressives that "Satan" plays in certain religious circles. The eternal source of all evil. Of course, the fact that President Obama himself embraced the term when he thought his scheme was going to work is a slight obstacle, but Harris-Perry gets to that a little later:

And so he decided, if you can't beat them, you've got to join them. And he embraced the word and made it his own, sending his opposition a message they weren't expecting -- 'if that's what you want me to be, I'll be that.' Y'all know the word that I'm talking about. Obamacare.

I wonder what foreigners think when they visit the U.S. after reading about or viewing left-wing tv and movies. I suppose they think white people dressed in Simon Legree clothing with bullwhip in hand go around lashing black people and other minorities when they're not lynching innocent young, black males for walking down the street.

The picture of the U.S. as depicted by leftists like the ones on MSLSD is one of poverty and misery for the great majority (all gaunt and sickly looking from being denied health care) while evil, fat, white males drive around in huge cars and live in gigantic mansions. In the world of the leftists, nobody is responsible for their situation in life. Society i.e. greedy, rich white males is to blame.
