Just remember: Halperin is a lib. He offered up a comment that he felt comfortable and safe in saying (minus the part about it going out over the air and becoming a youtube classic). That means that this kind of talk and this kind of opinion are commonplace amongst his associates and colleagues.

That's the real news here.



Nailed it.

are outnumbered by those who vote for a living.

This whole thing is a fraud.  He wasn't fired for saying dick, he was fired for not verbally fluffing his betters of the Chicago Machine.

This is the already established standards of Morning Joe and MSNBC

I'm surprised this isn't already part of the story.

Essentially, what it comes down is that the Chicago Machine exercises veto power over what goes on the air of a major American media outlet.

A proud day for leftist trash everywhere  ::unknowncomic::  Own it bitches.

"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

That silly little prick Willie Geist has his "Willie's Picks of the Week" where he recounts all the political gaffes  (95% by Republicans ) . Naturally Halperin's  "dick" comment didn't make the cut . I wonder why ?

The glass half full view would be that it is because calling Obama a dick is a factual statement and therefor not technically a gaffe.  But then the gaffe would have to be in the MFM suspending him for saying something true, so in the end the leftists are still double-standard pussies any way you cut it!
