We live in a world where you have to literally watch every word you say, every action you take, every association you make for the fear that it might be considered racist or intolerant. Recently we have seen a bombardment of front page articles, news stories, and talking points surrounding Phil Robertson and Duck Dynasty and his comments about homosexuality and the Black community.





We have been told by the media that Phil is a terrible person because he spoke his mind and what he believed in. He did not shame anyone, he did not mock anyone, he did not damn anyone to their death, or call for people to treat anyone any differently. He said what he believed in and said what every liberal in this country dreads…. He said he leaves the judgment to God and he loves all his brothers and sisters. A&E suspends him for his intolerant beliefs and the GLAAD community wants him fired. Phil lives in America where we have the freedom of speech and the freedom to believe what we want. He is entitled to his opinions and if we are going to get up in a huff about what Mr. Robertson said, then I believe that we need to call a spade a spade and be just as upset about what happened to the Romney Family on Melissa Harris-Perry's MSNBC panel.





Ms. Harris-Perry had a panel discussion about the most memorable photos of the year and the one of the Romney's and all their grandchildren was the topic.

Well, not so much a discussion of the photograph itself, more like the fact that Mitt and Ann's son Ben Romney and his wife adopted a baby boy named Kieran. Kieran also happens to be black.

There has been no outcry from the media or the general public for an apology, for Melissa Harris-Perry to be suspended, or for MSNBC to fire her for her actions. In fact, the people on her panel laughed and made jokes at the expense of an innocent little boy, who was brought into a family that loves him unconditionally, and does not look at the color of his skin.





Ms. Harris-Perry's next segment was "Is it Racist?" Clearly, she missed that lesson in school.
