Fox News Suspends Two Heads for NSFW On-Air Comments About Obama
Big Government ^ | 12/7/15 | Patrick Howley

Posted on 12/07/2015 5:28:29 PM PST by markomalley

The Fox News and Fox Business networks have suspended on-air host Stacey Dash and commentator Lt. Col. Ralph Peters for cursing on the air about President Obama’s handling of the Islamic State terrorist group.

Peters called Obama a “pussy” after his primetime televised speech on terrorism, while Dash said that he couldn’t give a “shit” about the terrorist group. Both commentators immediately acknowledged that they were wrong for using the epithets, but the suspension still stands.

They should get MORE air time. They said it like it is.

I consider “fascist” to be a far more offensive term. Or, worst of all, Sharia.

I appreciate their heart-felt honesty. They should receive awards, but Fox has to play ‘the game.’

As FOX goes the way of the rest of the liberal MSM. No guts.

They could have used other words.

Peters should have called Obama a “wimp” and Dash could’ve said “doesn’t give a damn”.

Cleaned up for TV, but still totally accurate.

Ralph Peters is a very educated man.

He was using the French word “pousse”.

I believe that translates to “Dirty little chickenshirt bastich”, which, let’s face it, Obama is.

“”Ralph Peters is a very educated man.””

I don’t think I’d care to hear what he had to say when he got the news about being suspended from FOX. I can hear it in my head without hearing him! He’s a sly old fox and I respect him greatly!

Fox didn’t have much choice. Too many millions of cat owners who might be offended by Col. Peters’ comparing their pet to Obama.

"Poussez" is French for push.

In the transitive verb form implying "Hey you, take this action!"

Often posted on entrance doors, as opposed to pull to open.

Well, I hope Miss Francine, my high school French teacher gets in trouble for this.

All those years I was in Paris afraid to open a door because I thought it said “Dirty little chickenshirt bastich”.

I’ll bet Ralph Peters knew the correct translation.

I’m so ashamed of my translating skills, that I must go.

Auf weinersehn.

>> Peters should have called Obama a “wimp” <<

Or call him a “pussy cat” — and nobody would bat an eye!

Obama must be wee weed up. After all, he was caught sucking on a slurpee (that’s an insult he repeatedly used against Republicans at one point).

Maybe he was teabagging (another insult he’s used).

Commies suck.
