Senior Political Analyst for MSNBC calls Obama "a dick" on air (Harry Reid, Franken)

[artsyguy]

LOL!!!!!! The latent homosexuals did not like that word.

I dont see what the problem is

obama is a dick
bush was a dunce
clinton was a harrasser

and my wife calls me an a,ss all the time

You know...

There are other adjectives that people can use to describe their displeasure with the president.

Why is everyone so crude nowadays? Why is it acceptable to call the President of the United States a dick on national television?

He's vulgar. Nobody needs to hear that. Say it at the watercooler, not on MSNBC.

This is his job title: Mark Halperin, editor-at-large and senior political analyst for TIME

Nobody gets a pass with credentials like his to call the president a dick.

Well! We've learned that MSNBC broadcasts with a 7 second delay. So either 1. someone didn't think the comment was a big deal or 2. left it on intentionally or 3. didn't know how to delete it.
Being that it's MSNBC, I'm going with #3

MSNBC needs to fire Joe Starbuck, what a loser

A post so bereft of anything resembling evidence to back it up that you made it twice? I suppose I could ask you again which mainstream media Democrats were calling for George W. Bush's death. You wouldn't make something up, amidst all your birther posts, right highcotton?

As far as the poll goes, I guess we don't know what's in his Time contract.

Please give us an example that is equivalent to this situation, i.e., the editor of a major news magazine calling the President a "dick".

You've posted most of this stuff before. I gave you a reply back then, but you never said anything in return.

I was shocked to hear that those two would say things like that, so I googled those quote myself. You know what, I was shocked to find out that there's no results for either of those quotes! I'm sure when you post that Maddow advocated the assassination of President Bush that you weren't just making stuff up, so if you could please let me know when she actually did that, with a link if possible, that would be appreciated.

I can't find any evidence of her saying that.
