NBC NEWS STATEMENT REGARDING CHELSEA CLINTON COMMENT:

On Thursday's "Tucker" on MSNBC, David Shuster, who was serving as guest-host of the program, made a comment about Chelsea Clinton and the Clinton campaign that was irresponsible and inappropriate. Shuster, who apologized this morning on MSNBC and will again this evening, has been suspended from appearing on all NBC News broadcasts, other than to make his apology. He has also extended an apology to the Clinton family. NBC News takes these matters seriously, and offers our sincere regrets to the Clintons for the remarks.

Don’t be silly. Jesus is no Clinton.

People only get fired when they offend a Clinton.

Remember when you are in the Hillary concentration camp that when they force you to smile for the camera, cross your fingers. That way we will know that all is not well with you.

A “D” word or a “L” word should never use a “P” word against the “C” words or they will be treated like an “N” word by the media “Wh” words.

“Pimped out” — Having excessive embellishments or ornaments, particularly of the flashy kind. State your car will be in if you have added the gold trim package, curb feelers, continental kit, white wall tires, rims that are off set and stick out at least 4” from the side of the car body, lowered 4”, TV boomerange antenna, blackout tited windows, crushed velour seats, custom chain steering wheel, neon liscense plate surround, huge naked woman hood ornament, sound system that has no treble, custom metalic purple paint job, and fuzzy dice.

How about someone rich enough, and interested enough (like Rush Limbaugh perhaps) buys one of the struggling networks, turns it into the media equivalent of Free Republic, then staffs it with every single journalist who’s been drummed out of the PC media, or been forced into these absurd on-air kowtowing, to unapologetically champion:

FREE SPEECH.

The Grand Wallah of Isflam (because everything he says is flam) Bill Clinton and Wife were offended by the vicious attacks on the Holy Daughter.

Isflamists all over the MSM, universities, Hollywood reacted with condemnation of unbelievers who "debased the Holy Daughter, degraded Isflam, and behaved rudely and insentively."

I don’t think “pimping out” is something different generations interpret differently. Correct me if I am wrong but the meaning is inescapable and has to do with “turning out” or turning someone into a prostitute.

It was a tasteless vile remark and the anchor deserves condemnation.

Senator Clinton could have avoided a hornet’s nest if had even thought in those terms.. ideally the leader of the free world would be aware pimpin’ can mean “good” in general without direct visual ties to the words origin.

Any MSNBC Talking head can call the president a “Moron”, or “Chimp” or even “Lying Dumbass”, but if they DARE to utter such words against the protected Clinton’s, THEY GET SUSPENDED...

What was the line Libs used after Bush’s election?

“I feel a chilling wind...”

Funny how that never applies to DEMOCRATS, eh?

To: rightinthemiddle “Shuster can say ANYTHING about a Republican, but not the Clinton’s.”

Perfect example of "If a tree falls in the forest and no one hears it, does it still make a noise". No one is watching!

An NBC spokesman said "We would do the same if it was a Republican"

If that happened you can expect some legislation to stop it and ruin or incarcerate anyone involved within 2 weeks!
