Romney is a class act, unlike the Golfer In Chief and his evil cohorts at the very liberal insensitive and untolerant MSNBC.

“Romney is a class act,”

Too bad more folks didn’t realize that in 2008. For all his shortcomings he is a decent man. A loving husband and father to his wife and children. Name one positive thing about The One? Hey, maybe he’ll adopt a white baby. /sar

Agree!

While it took a long time (I’m guessing they had a lot of backlash, otherwise they would have thought her “apology” on twitter was sufficient):

MSNBC host offers tearful apology to Romneys (Save the tears racist idiot!)

MSNBC host Melissa Harris-Perry made a tearful apology to Mitt Romney’s family on her show Saturday, after she and a panel poked fun at a photo of the former Republican presidential candidate with his wife and 21 grandchildren by zeroing in on his adopted African-American grandson.

“Whatever the intent was, the reality is that the segment proceeded in a way that was offensive, and showing the photo in that context, of that segment, was poor judgment. So without reservation or qualification, I apologize to the Romney family,” said the anchor at the open of her show, “Melissa Harris-Perry.”

Harris-Perry became emotional as she went on to apologize to all “other families formed through transracial adoption,” saying, “I am deeply sorry that we suggested that interracial families are in any way funny or deserving of ridicule.”

She highlighted her own interracial background, as the daughter of an African-American man and a white Mormon woman. But, she said, families are always “off limits,” and the Romneys’ grandchildren should never have been a topic of discussion.
