Thursday Night Video – Melissa Harris-Perry on Romney the Bully

Last weekend, Melissa Harris-Perry had a panel discussion about Mitt Romney’s past as a gay-basher (whether it was conscious or not). As usual, she frames it in a smart and revealing fashion, by noting how the Romney campaign itself has been trying to convince us that their candidate has a wild-and-crazy man inside. Some additional interesting points are made about how it’s Romney’s anti-gay policy that matter more than his personal feelings toward homosexuals, and how Romney’s “allergy” to taking principled stances may stem from his dad having taken principled stances and losing Republican party support due to that.
