Fox News guest jokes about knocking off Obama

Good grief!

I was trying to edit the subject line, then tried to add my comment and just ran into all sorts of truble.

Anyway, I was researching a comment on another thread and ran across this Utube video. I believe that lady's name is Liz Trotter and what started as a slip of the tongue turned into a joke about killing Obama.

After I had posted this, I went back to check on the ladies name and realized this is old, so my apologies. I have no idea what happened after this aired on Fox. It seems to me that getting all upset over Joe, they'd be just a bit upset over someone cracking jokes about 'knocking off' a Presidential candidate yet, I never heard anything about this until I found it on the net.

Anyone else see this 'old' news at the time?

My disclaimer .. I don't watch Fox News very often.

Well yeah - he's an attractive man you know?

I wouldnt mind knocking him off, though its doubtful he'd go for me.

Still, if Monika got hold of Bill, maybe there's hope for me yet

Isn't that prosecutable in this country ? Or does it have to be after one is elected.

That's alright, you can see that same sort of comment made right here, only directed at Governor Palin - but nobody ever makes a big deal out of it.

Not the same sort of comment at all, Sanity. One was an observational projection the other was a call for assassination .. which it's my understanding is a felony and yet I couldn't find a single consequence for Trotters unseemly utterance.

I did see the clip where she apologised Celeste, but the first full clip is showing too how she then goes on to say Hillary was stupid for saying what she said.
The full 3 minute clip

The apology

Yes, I saw that 'apology' too.. but what I was looking for was the consequence. Well, maybe that is the consequence.. I can't find hide nor hair of her anywhere. Obscurity .. not as good as jail though.

That was just one example, the first one that popped up - there have been others even more blatant. And you don't think it's comparable? Saying that it's expected that there will be a lot of assassination attempts if Governor Palin becomes President, as if she was proud of that?

That was certainly bad enough. I suppose it all depends on your perspective, but I can only guess what the reaction would be if someone on the right were so ... can't really go there with the appropriate words, can I...

See that right there, seems your side loves to waltz around all day flipping that kind of wonderful poetry around towards the right ... but let someone on the right bring the words Socialism or Marxist into an actual debate about tax policy and suddenly we're called children or idiots or we're called racist or worse...

As uptight as so many of you seem to be, I can hardly believe that you're confident that your guy is truly in the lead.

I just can't see it...

Who's uptight? Look at how loose we all are, thanks to our Yoga classes and neo-Hippy philosophy

Okay,I"m shocked,Sanity actually has a point....the thing is ,and keeping in mind Celeste's edit,some throw away,unfortunate quip made here is not exactly comparable to a remark made on Fox News,Sanity even you must recognise this.

It is indeed illegal to threaten the President---once elected.

The Secret Service take that shit seriously--and they're good at it. REALLY good. They don't ask. They do.

Point is, both sides have their gems, mike.

I say kudos to Fox News for interviewing such a diverse cross section of the country and putting so many adversarial opinions before us to chew on or to be disgusted by...

Debate itself is good, and I say we need more of it, even if it isn't always perfectly PC
