Without your outrage this would never have happened. I've heard up until this post they (the liberal illuminati) were considering him for knighthood.

What I said, and I was correct, was that neither MSNBC, nor NBC, publicly denounced what he said. Yet those networks perpetuate the myth that my side is waging a war on women.

Spin that however you like.

Have you actually watched the video? It wasn't nearly as bad as I was expecting considering your hissy fit.

Over the top, yes, but it's only noteworthy because Palin is female.

It seems most irrelevant things are noteworthy only based on gender( unless your a heterosexual male)
Race ( unless your white) or religion ( unless your Christian)

It's noteworthy because...

(1) Bashir claims that the other side is waging a war on women. Kind of ironic given the way he treated Gov Palin.

(2) Bashir took offense to the fact that Palin compared debt to slavery. Yet Bashir used the slavery analogy to denounce a Bush policy. Kind of ironic when you htink of it.

(3) NBC has made no comment.

It was beneath contempt, but not unexpected from those hatemongers.

They kicked him out the door, don't think he left on his own. That's quite a statement.

Detbuch posted what the bigshots at MSNBC said about him. What a great job he did. Not one syllable about what he said. Zip..

"Wow are you out of touch..."

OK, you deny that liberals claim conservatives are waging a war on women. You deny that, and I am the one who is out of touch. Is that about right?

It's called allowing a somewhat graceful exit after an awkward moment.

Again you abuse the concept of "they". A remark by one person doesn't constitute "liberals". You're mixing up your singular and plural.

Perhaps your grammar is a bad as your math

Also, you ignored my video link.

According to him it does. Unless of course you find the exact comment from a Cons. and point it out. Then Jim's next post starts with "Here is the difference....."

"It's called allowing a somewhat graceful exit after an awkward moment."

It wasn't akward, it was putrid.

I'll accept your categorization of allowing a graceful exit. But sometimes, when someone does something so unacceptable, they don't deserve a graceful exit. We can disagree on whether or not his comments rise to that level.

Why didn't they allow Alec Baldwin the same chance to make a graceful exit? After all, Baldwin merely made a spontaneous comment on his own time. Bashir made a scripted, premeditated comment on the air. The reason for the preferential treatment is that homosexuals are a protected class to liberals, while conservative women are to be attacked at all costs.

You still haven't commented (big suprise) on the fact that neither NBC nor MSNBC have made a single statement, other to to tell us whet a great host he was. Not one word about how that kind of hate has no business in civilized discussion.

A remark by one person does not constitute an agenda. When that remark is hammered home by every liberal media outlet, and it is never challenged by anyone on the left, then it bvecomes fair.

If you get so offended by being characterized as believeing in the core beliefs of liberalism, then perhaps you should ask why you seem to agree with liberals on every single issue that has been discussed here. When I am described as pro-life, pro-charity, pro-strong national defense, pro-free market, I don't get defensive. If I felt like I was being insulted by being described thusly, I would change what I believe.

We all know that there is no one issue on which 100% of liberals agree. Many people, however, take the liberty of saying "they" instead of saying "most, but with some obvious exceptions".

Maybe, but if so, with accolades and without mentioning the reason being his vile statement. Don't consider that being "Kicked out the door." Just shows NBC's lack of standards and not caring to be a network that is above board.
