MSNBC host: 'Rick Perry wants to get all up in your uterus and take a picture'

Filling in on the Rachel Maddow Show on Tuesday night, Tulane professor and MSNBC commentator Melissa Harris-Perry took Texas Governor and GOP Presidential candidate Rick Perry to task for supporting �government so small that you don�t even notice it� on the one hand and the inconsistency of supporting the Texas sonogram law on the other.

............

�Rick Perry wants to make the government so small you don�t event notice it �unless you�re a lady. In which case, Rick Perry wants to make the government so big that it can control the pregnancy of any given woman in Texas. On nearly every other issue, Rick Perry wants government to be practically non-existent. He wants government to be nowhere near you as a citizen. Not even if you want it or need it. But on this one issue, on the issue of abortion, he wants government to be right there with you. Handing your doctor a script, whispering in your ear, that you should be ashamed of yourself. Rick Perry wants to get all up in your uterus and take a picture.�

1. K & R for powerful prose

I hope this leads to bigger things for Melissa Harris-Perry.

7. And *YOU*, the patient have to pay for a test you didn't want.

I'm surprised that Perry doesn't mandate patients have to hold and rock newborn dolls and have a photo taken of them cuddling the doll before they have a zygote removed.

8. This point seems so obvious

It's a wonder it's left to a fill-in on a cable talk show to make it. Where are the bulldogs of the Fourth Estate? Brian? Diane? Whoever's sitting behind the desk today at CBS? You folks make a lot of money to read words over the air. Can any of you find the gumption to ask the leading (for now) candidate for a major party presidential nomination a question about this?

9. Hear, hear!

And I must second the comments made by Gratuitous: where the heck are the regular newscasters on this?

10. She has really caught fire

I used to see her in occasional Maddow Show segments and thought she was kind of boring and professorial. But something has really changed in her recent stints as a guest host. Maybe it's something about hosting rather than being on as an "expert." Maybe she's found her inner Maddow. But either way I think it's great.

11. Fl. Gov Prick Scott has done the same here.

It seems like Perry & him following same path in many ways.
