MSNBC ‘Indefinitely’ Suspends Analyst Halperin for Calling Obama a ‘D*ck’

Following this morning’s blip, TIME Magazine editor Mark Halperin was indefinitely suspended by MSNBC. Business Insider has more:

This morning on Morning Joe Mark Halperin, under the impression Morning Joe was on a 7 second delay, said he thought President Obama was a ‘d*ck’ in his press conference yesterday.

He quickly apologized once it became clear the remark had aired, [as] did the entire Morning Joe crew.

Apparently that was not enough. MSNBC has since suspended Halperin.

The network issued the following statement regarding the suspension:

Mark Halperin’s comments this morning were completely inappropriate and unacceptable. 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.  Therefore, Mark will be suspended indefinitely from his role as an analyst.

According to Media Bistro, Halperin responded, saying:

I completely agree with everything in MSNBC’s statement about my remark. 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.

Earlier this morning, Halperin sent the following Tweet:

MSNBC Indefinitely Suspends Analyst Halperin for Calling Obama a D*ck

In that mess is a pardon for Joe biden and Barrock Hussen Obama and about half of his zars including Valerie Jarret. Even the Republican’s will throw one of theirs under the bus when they become radioactive. Although I can’t understand all the fuss – it’s almost as if he called Obama a little p*ick.

      I doubt it took over 10 minutes to fire him.
      When you try to deceive people with a lie, you have to tell the lie WITHOUT FAIL. You have to commit 100%. You cannot falter from the lie, or, the lie fails. Anything less than 100%, and you are their ENEMY! So long as you are an useful idiot, you are allowed to hang on. The second you cease to be useful, you are just an idiot to them – so they reject you.

My family and I were required to pay for their education, medical bills, food, clothing, etc… As my new housemates are all piled up on my now tattered and torn couch, watching some America-Bashing show on the old telemundo (tv), they are all busy as bees writing letters and wiring any left over money they may or may not have earned to their friends that may need help finding their way to our now tattered and run-down house so that they also may move in.

      I’m all for freedom of speech.

      These liberals are so used to being able to spout whatever runs across their tiny brains without stopping to think about what they are saying that it’s catching up on them! It doesn’t really matter whether the show was on 7 second delay or not. He’s a fool for saying it at all, especially in an area where they were broadcasting! There are other ways to get one’s point across then to use vulgar language.

Y’all, cut Halperin some slack, over the last year I have watched his Obama colored glasses breaking under the facts. (Obama colored glasses is from a Lucianne poster, sorry forgot his name)

      Freudian slips aside, the truth of the matter remains that Obama IS in fact a little “d*ck” (actually, more accurately spelled with a ‘pr’ in place of the ‘d’), and was in true form yesterday when he acted like one.

      This incompetent poser has NO INTENTION of negotiating anything… in his pea-brained socialist mind, he and his political party have done nothing wrong, and EVERYTHING WRONG with the economy is the fault of President Bush and his Republican friends in Congress. What a delusional, arrogant POS we have for a President !!! He’s no leader, and he certainly isn’t very smart.

      Speaking to CNN, Congressman Ron Paul reacted to Obama’s disregard for the Constitution by labeling his claim, “A horrible statement.”

      “You take an oath of office to obey the Constitution… the Constitution is very clear, you don’t go to war without a declaration,” said Paul.

      Actually Obama really isn’t a dick. He’s the feminine attribute, so Halperin was actually not telling the truth except in anatomical association principle. I’d like to assume he knew the difference between the female and male sexual distinguishing characteristics.

      Then again, he worked for MSNBC, so just how much he knew/knows, and when he knew it is certainly questionable.
