Mark Halperin, editor-at-large for Time, called President Obama a dick on Wednesday on a popular MSNBC morning show and then quickly apologized.
I thought he was a dick yesterday, Halperin, who also is a senior political analyst for MSNBC, said on Morning Joe, referring to the Presidents conduct during his press conference.
Host Joe Scarborough hoped to prevent the comment from being broadcast, saying, Delay that. Delay that. What are you doing? I cant believe
dont do that. Did we delay that?

I guess the only lie in the whole deal is the ‘apology’

That is not where Obama falls on the ‘Team America’ D-P-A spectrum.

I don’t think so. I think the anatomically correct pejorative in this case would start with the letter’C’.

"Much too masculine and virile of a term for Obama."
Not for Halperin but to the rest of us, Obama is an ass.
To: Bigtigermike
...but referring to Governor Palin as a t*** or a c*** is perfectly okay...
Hypocrites.

Later in the show, Halperin again apologized, saying, I cant explain why I did it. Its inappropriate, disrespectful. Ive already apologized, and I will again to the President. Im sorry, Im sorry to the viewers
It is disrespectful, what I said was disrespectful to the president and the office but it also lowers our discourse."Lowers our discourse"? Gimme a break. Liberals are foul mouthed mob members - I'm sure Halperin's comments were tame compared to what he says back in the office... Here's his REAL apology - 'I'm sorry I showed the world how elite liberals talk and think - elites love to pull the wool over the less enlightened members of our party - the losers - oh wait - can you do the 7 second thing...."

Definite sign that the wheels are coming off the “Hope and Change” BS when one of their own utter their innermost thoughts on TV...... Its going to get uglier... how can it not when an absolute Putz is at the helm??????
To: wny
Halperin is obviously a racist. Want to bet the MSM would NEVER come up with that one... Of course if a Republican had said the same it would be the first words out of their mouths...

You mean the Morning Joe Seinfeld Show actually made some news?
His show is about a bunch of nobodys talking about nothing.
And Joe is looking more and more like a dickhead.
Talk about a guy who sold his soul.
