Ah, so you refuse to admit that you were wrong about the FCC

Just adjusting the goal posts a little to try and compensate now. [:D]

You can say anything on cable, MM

The FCC had nothing to do with it

Much, much worse was said about Bush on that same network, the only real difference is the current presidents political affiliation


OK. Show us where a newscaster called Bush a dick, cock, penis, pussy, cunt, or any other form of reproductive organ.

If whatshisname had called Obama one of the quoted Bush monikers, he'd still be on the air.

Conservatives are funky about their sexual references.

[P.S. -- in no way am I defending MSNBC, which is nearly as bad as Fox in being a source of commentary vs. news, but presenting it as if news nonetheless.]




Musicmystery -> RE: Mark Halperin suspended for calling Obama a dick on live TV (7/1/2011 2:18:26 PM)

I didn't realize it was on cable, true.

The point is still the reproductive organ reference. Show me where another newscaster got away with it, and I'll concede.

You are being ridiculous. Where did I write "reproductive organ reference"?

Nowhere.

That's because, Your Slowness, that's the point I'M making.

In America, people have patience for "fascist" and "killer" and so forth. But not "dick," "pussy," etc.

That's the difference.

Not defending it....explaining it. Your claim is that this was political. My point is that had he called Obama a clueless moron, instead of a dick, he'd still be on the air.

Rush Limbaugh is a Oxycontin dealer who takes pockets full of viagra on vacation to countries where he can have sex with minors. Guess you found yourself a role model there, eh sani?



Are you ever going to provide links to your bs or are we just supposed to take your word on that?

OP - Are you surprised?



Why would he be surprised that Limbaugh is a limp dick?

I thought everyone knew that.




The OP had nothing to do with Limbaugh or his dick. Now tell me, how often have you seen his dick and are you sure it's always limp. Maybe you just didn't turn him on.




thishereboi -> RE: Mark Halperin suspended for calling Obama a dick on live TV (7/1/2011 3:23:51 PM)

Everyone knows he used it. It was all over the paper. Skippy claimed "Rush Limbaugh is a Oxycontin dealer who takes pockets full of viagra on vacation to countries where he can have sex with minors. Guess you found yourself a role model there, eh sani?" Now I am still waiting for the link saying he was selling. If it comes up I will be glad to admit I was wrong. Until then my claim that skippy pulls most of his facts from his ass still stands.

I get the Oxycontin crack but where does the Viagra sex with minors thing come from ?



A few years ago, Rush was getting off a plane from a vacation in the Dominican Republic and a search found a bunch of viagra which wasn't prescribed to him (Face it, Viagra not prescribed to the person in posession is kinda common).  The Dominican Republic is kind of infamous as a destination for 'sex tourism' in this hemisphere (Like Bangcock in the eastern).  Unfortunately, their laws concerning underage sex aren't enforced and it has become a bit of a mecca for Dirty Old Men wanting something that would put you in jail for a long time here in the US.

Not proof but curcumstancially something he would jump all over if it was say a Democratic senator.



So you admit it was something he is just assuming and not something that anyone has proved. I wonder if you would ever give someone on the right the benifit of the doubt like that.

He wouldn't if I were in charge over there[:)]

Now having moved beyond ridiculous youve entered the realm of desperation [:D]

Just admit you were wrong and move on

What I wrote had nothing to do with what people have patience for in America, how far are you planning on moving that goal post anyway

He could have called Bush practically anything and most of the scallywags over at MSNBC wouldnt have batted an eye

I doubt that too. they have to maintain some semblence of credibility. they would have at least couched it as reporting that someone else called him a moron :)

Both parts are matters of public record. Beyond being a troll are you also unable to google?


I remember all kinds of stories about him taking pills, I don't remember anything about him also being a dealer. Now there is a good chance I missed it and if I did there should be no problems with him finding the link.


Pretty basic, the amount he was caught with was above the legal threshold for charging with possesion with intent to distribute i.e. drug dealing.




Hillwilliam -> RE: Mark Halperin suspended for calling Obama a dick on live TV (7/1/2011 8:12:48 PM)

I think My last sentence is giving him the benefit of a doubt.

"Not proof but circumstancially something he would jump all over if it were a Democratic senator in the same position"




Sanity -> RE: Mark Halperin suspended for calling Obama a dick on live TV (7/2/2011 5:54:00 AM)


Did somebody ask what Rush Limbaugh said about Obama being called a Dick

quote:



RUSH LIMBAUGH: Now, the White House says that that remark was inappropriate. The White House says it's inappropriate. White House spokesman, Mr. Claire Shipman, Jay Carney said that "the comment was an inappropriate thing to say about any president," except George W. Bush. Well, he didn't really say that, but you know damn well if Halperin had called Bush that name they wouldn't even have apologized. "White House spokesman Jay Carney said the comment was an inappropriate thing to say about any president. Carney also said he had expressed that sentiment to network executives. Halperin quickly apologized on the air Thursday. MSNBC suspended him indefinitely hours later. MSNBC also said Halperin's comment was completely inappropriate and unacceptable. The network apologized to Obama."

So let's take a look here. The word "dick" inappropriate. But the Republicans will hurt disabled kids is totally permissible. The Republicans will hurt college kids. The Republicans will take food out of old people's mouths. Totally appropriate. The Republicans want to take Social Security checks away from old people, totally appropriate. Paul Ryan will push your grandmother to her death over a cliff in a wheelchair, totally appropriate. The rich are selfish, mean-spirited, extremist racists, totally appropriate to say. Conservatives are racist, sexist, bigot, homophobes, totally appropriate to say. It is totally appropriate to make up quotes I never said and attribute them to me. It's totally appropriate for left-wing sportswriters to invent things I never said, that's totally appropriate.
