Another time in HISTORY...when another sitting president was called a D!CK by a political analyst with live media coverage to blast his arrogance and ignorance out to the ENTIRE world!!! I say...it take a D!CK to think he knows one.... What a creep! I tell you...it really burns me up that our President has made so many strides. Not perfect.....but hes done a mighty fine job in comparison to his predecessor. NOW the GOP is on a mission to undo it if they can.  Whooo whoooo.... ~ thats just a little steam~

Man...I wish we could turn back the hands of time...just a little...take away the TV and the INTERNET. ummmm....scratch the last one....I need this semi anonymous venue to dump my deep seeded aggression OR I might hurt someone J/K

BTW...did yall catch First Lady Michelle showing those guns doing push ups with Desmond Tutu? Man...shes an inspiration. They both are....no scandal has rocked their house...yet you dont hear many people talking about that fact.

MSNBC has suspended political analyst and Time magazine writer Mark Halperin indefinitely over a remark he made about President Obama Thursday morning.

"Mark Halperin's comments this morning were completely inappropriate and unacceptable," said MSNBC spokesman Jeremy Gaines in a statement. "We apologize to the President, the White House and all of our viewers. We strive for a high level of discourse and comments like these have no place on our air."

Appearing on "Morning Joe" this morning, Halperin, senior political analyst at Time and MSNBC and co-author of the 2008 election opus "Game Change," sought to characterize the president's demeanor at a press briefing the previous day. You can watch the video below--though the term Halperin uses to characterize the president is vulgar, as the partial transcript after the jump will also show:

 

"Are we on the seven-second delay?" Halperin asked.

"We have it. We can use it. Go for it. Let's see what happens," co-anchor Joe Scarborough replied.

"I thought he was a dick yesterday," Halperin replied, sending the hosts into a brief moment of panic.

Halperin apologized later on in the show and issued his own mea culpa hours later via MSNBC.

"I completely agree with everything in MSNBC's statement about my remark," he said. "I believe that the step they are taking in response is totally appropriate. Again, I want to offer a heartfelt and profound apology to the President, to my MSNBC colleagues, and to the viewers. My remark was unacceptable, and I deeply regret it."

Halperin is the latest in a string of MSNBC suspensions this past year. Scarborough himself was suspended last November for violating the network's campaign contribution policy, as was Keith Olbermann, who left MSNBC several months later. More recently, Ed Schultz was suspended in May for calling pundit Laura Ingraham a "****" And former MSNBC dayside host David Schuster also got a suspension in 2008 for complaining that Hillary Clinton had "pimped out" her daughter, Chelsea, on the presidential campaign trail.

Check out ColorofChange.org and its campaign agains these racist media ******** eric bolling of fox faux news, murdoch etc.  We need to participate with organizations like this that call these racists out and stop pretending thi is an individual thing not the institutionalized racism that it is. 

Get on their e mail list.  You will be informed as incidents occur plus they arm you with links to take action.  It takes a minute of your time and you need only respond to what you concur with. 

We need to hit this hard right now.  It will continue to worsen as the 2012 election nears.  Please send this link to evryone you can.   If they don't wan't it they don't get on list but this is too important to ignore. 

Its way past time to stop *****ing among ourselves and do something.  We need to change the system from within to make real 21st century progress. 

Thanks Marcia,

I need to figure out why I am not getting the notification as of late. I did sign up on that site a while back and took action on a few items. Thanks for the reminder. I agree...we need to stand together and offer our support to effort such as these.
