What’s dumb is holding a daily briefing for the scumbag ENEMEDIA at the WH.

That wasn't groveling. It was an apology, where one was perfectly warranted.

I don't think anyone believes that Sean Spicer meant to disrespect the families of Holocaust survivors or anyone else.

It was just a boneheaded thing to say, and he apologized for it. Time to move on to important matters...

Stop allowing Blitzer to attend the press conferences.

Problem solved.

(but yes the comment was really stupid...)

Whitewashing one of the most horrible events in history by a monster and you think it’s nitpicking?

Have you been to the holocaust museum?

So if Josh Earnest had said it, you would have been okay with it?

How do you extract that from what I wrote?

Especially given the fact that I acknowledged that it was a fouled-up talking point.

Too much virtue signaling over this..

And that includes your annoying reply.

So give me a break, iovesarah2012.

Spicer has enough BS to deal with that gaggle of shameless pressititues.. we all get his point. And if you don’t , you’re a historically- challenged dum dum.

All I want him to do is refrain from apologizing.

I support President Trump and his team 100%.

Apologizing won’t do any good. The damage has been done. It was a very insensitive comment, not to mention historically inaccurate.

And how many nations have used atomic bombs?

“Sean Spicer needs to be gone”

Really. Too many gaffes. Tone deaf to political nuances. The word is that he’s Priebus’ guy, and he strongly pushed Trump to put Spicer in that position.

How about TAMMY BRUCE or LAURA INGRAHAM — adults who give well-thought-out responses to serious political issues?

He tripped over his talking point. He wanted to make a very specific comparison... but he stumbled thru it unfortunately.

He even apologized, which he didn’t need to (in my opinion).

That’s still unacceptable to you?

As I wrote — you can put various despots and dictators thru the course of human history up against each other and do a compare/contrast all day long and forever. Big whoop.

You are feeding the media sharks with your position... and are giving these vile liberals room to fight back.

Is that what you want ?

NO APOLOGY NECESSARY !

AND CASE CLOSED!

Here is the answer.

1. NO HE SHOULD NOT QUIT OR BE FIRED, right now.

After awhile, he should be fired/promoted because he is a LOUSY press secretary.

2. Hey Sean..... NEVER use the words Hitler or Nazis. You are just begging for trouble when you do. No GOOD can come from using them.

You are (supposed to be) a PR guy! How STUPID do you have to be to use the word Hitler? It is dangerous, as you are seeing and it is so cliché, so gauche, so infantile.

If you reach into your mind bag and come up with the word “Hitler”, it was really your bag of straws and you got the last one in there.

Hey Sean, why didn’t you prove how bright you are and answer that at least Hitler “made the trains run on time”. (I know it was Mussolini, but he probably doesn’t).

Not at all..., Jews, Gypsies, Homosexuals, the infirmed..., possibly Catholics too. I don’t remember all the groups he hated off the bat.

He was an equal opportunity genocidal maniac.

If I inferred otherwise, it was unintentional.

Sometimes I mention Jews singularly to make a point, but when I do I realize there were others as well, and they are certainly every bit as important. It’s just more brief to address one of the groups than a whole list in a sentence.

He demonstrated bad judgment. He gave the sharks red meat. Case closed. Time for lunch.

Once again conservatives have fallen prey to the politically correct vultures. The scumbags of the press. I ask rhetorically this. If Sean Spicer said

"This is my opinion and I have the 1st amendment, do your worst!"

What could the press have actually done?. This considering the laws of free speech.

Please wake up conservatives.

Those ladies would be good choices, I think. No nonsense. No stumble-tongue. No apologies. Apologies kill a conservative.
