I should think that only Mooch-elle and that Obambi’s boyfriend that is squirreled away in the Virgin Islands would know if the asscrack is a dick.

I think the whole thing’s a riot. And I’m sure there’ll be thousands of apologies from those idiots on the show to Sarah Palin and Michelle Bachmann for their numerous slanders over the years . . . (crickets)

Hmmmm.... let me see if I can fix this. Mark Halperin's comments this morning about the president being a DICK were completely inappropriate and unacceptable.　 We apologize to President DICK, The White House and all THREE of our DICKY viewers. We strive for a high level of discourse and DICK comments like these have no place on our air. Therefore, Mark will be suspended indefinitely from his role as a DICK analyst. Statement from Mark Halperin: I completely agree with everything in MSNBC’s statement about my DICK remark. I believe that the step they are taking in response to the DICK comment is totally appropriate. Again, I want to offer a heartfelt and profound apology to President DICK, to my DICKY MSNBC colleagues, and to the three DICKY viewers. My DICK remark was unacceptable, and I deeply regret it. MSNBC would neither confirm nor deny that former Rep. Anthony Weiner will replace Halperin.

The hypocrisy at MSLSD is so thick you can cut it with a knife.

[hsalaw]

Maybe this is all a set-up between Halperin and MSNBC to create a controversy to bring viewers to that pathetic, unwatched show.

ROFLOL - Note that the other people on PMSNBC didn’t object to his characterization of Obozo - In fact, they appeared to find the comment quite humorous.

I wonder how many have been suspended for saying derogatory things about Bush, Cheney, Bachman, Palin....

[NMEwithin]

If I remember correctly...MSNBC did not suspend Ed Shutlz for calling Laura Ingram a "slut".

He took a voluntary leave...

Double Standard???

We strive for a high level of discourse

He called Cheney a Dick all the time and didn’t get into any trouble.

Would the Left snicker if Chris Wallace posed the following question:

“the rap on you here in Washington is that you have a history of questionable statements, some would say gaffes, ranging from ‘corpse-man’ to ‘57 States’...”

“Are you a dick?”

Michele Bachmann, Chris Wallace, and the flake question

Never watch the show but I did watch the clip to see what the fuss was about. Yes, Mark Halperin accurately described Obama’s actions but he was totally unprofessional in using the word he did. However, I noticed the hosts of that show urged him to do it after Halperin asked if they had a 7-second delay. In effect, they ‘egged him on’, then acted shocked and offended when Halperin used a sexual pejorative to describe the president. Still, it was odd. To diss the Marxist president with a sexual pejorative on a network that is totally in the tank for Obama 24 hours a day was, well, stupid. If you feel that way about Obama, don’t appear on MSNBC, the Obama propaganda outlet in cable news. This will get scant coverage in the liberal media and, fortunately for Mark Halperin, because he was on MSNBC, practically no one was watching at the time so his suspension is mostly window dressing to appease the Obama administration. He’ll be back.

0bama IS a dick, as well as a Communist bent on destroying the United States and what’s left of the free world.

Fire me!

[econjack]

This is why I never watch MSNBC. The dumb blonde sits there and expresses her views about which, frankly, I could care less. Further, she says that people want to see Obozo be "strong" and exhibit "leadership", blah, blah, blah. That maybe true, but when he hasn't a clue what he's doing, I'd just as soon see him sit down and STFU because his goals are Marxist in nature and I simply don't believe that's the direction this Republic should be going.

[Berlin_Freeper]

Halperin didn’t even say Obama IS a dick but said Obama WAS a dick.

[erod]

Blasphemy!!!!!! How dare he criticize the Messiah!!!!!!!!

[jdub]

Its not like he pulled a knife on Mr. Hand or anything...

[JaguarXKE]

If he’d made a disparagging remark about Palin, he’d bee ok.

[sportutegrl]

I get the feeling that this whole thing is a bit of theater, possibly designed to counteract the Undefeated movie where so many leftists say filthy things about Sarah Palin. Sort of a 'see, they said ugly stuff about Obama.'

[Rudder]

Wow! Doesn’t anyone here read FR before posting? This “news” about Halpern has been posted more times than I care to count.
