Melissa Harris-Perry: Semper Fee

This morning on MSNBC’s Melissa Harris-Perry, in a segment about Fallujah, host Harris-Perry made a silly blunder:

It’s a minor thing of course. I mean, don’t say it while on one of our bases, but it’s still minor. It does seem like, if you’re going to be talking about the dedication, loyalty, and core principles of the Marine Corps, if your segment hinges on the illustration of those points by quoting the motto, you might want to learn how to pronounce it. But Harris-Perry is just showing the very common lip-service liberal roots of the media. Those same roots that have led so many to misinterpret, misunderstand, or just plain get it wrong about the movie Lone Survivor. Civilian-itis.

But to be sure, her segment was not being disrespectful. It’s just one of those things.

Semper Fi, folks.
