CNBC's Erin Burnett calls Bush a "monkey" - twice. Hilarity ensues

Video

Eastern Shore (MD) women are never all there. My guess is chicken manure dust from the Perdue plant.

She’s a singularly attractive woman, at least in the photograph above.

I know I called Clinton much more unflattering things than a monkey during his 8 years in office. Fortunately, I’m not in the public eye. :)

Come to think of it, when I look back over the last 6 years, I think I’ve called Bush worse also...Particularly on immigration matters.

I remember when I was in high school, our teacher had all sorts of unflattering comics about Reagan on the wall. Now that time has proven him one of the great presidents, it’s easy to forget how hated he was by the left, and how the left loved to protray him as a simpleton.

She is reasonably attractive...for a commie bi-itch. But then again Helen Thomas is the average democrap.

[wastedyears]

Becky Quick is better looking.

[jdm]

She even has a “fan” site:

LOL.

Wow...CNBC discussing this NOW with Joe Scaborough...didn’t catch it all; just a joke, etc. Joe: amazing what a woman can get away with....anybody else see it??

This thing has legs...

[devane617]

I have never had a good impression of her. I like Liz Klayman, who is now with Fox Business Channel. Erin, sounds like a duck, and it drives me nuts.

[Liberty Valance]

Luckily, there are alternatives now ...

[seoul62]

Free speech permitted - Just allow equal time, and I will tell her to her face that she is a white - rhymes with witch. Her shock - my reply: well, you can dish it out but cannot take the heat??????/Just Asking - seoul62........

[mimaw]

Who did she sleep with to get that position?

[Ann Archy]

HILLARY??

[sofaman]

not saying a word..nope...not one word..

staying mum...

[Freedom2specul8]

attractiveness doesn’t apply in my humble opinion. It’s the ignorance that bothers me.

[Rennes Templar]

Really? Rush dating her? Is he pulling a Carville-Matalin?

[Freedom2specul8]

Great Description. LOL

[rabscuttle385]

Sometimes, beauty and brains are mutually exclusive traits. Unfortunately, in the case of Ms. Burnett, I would say that she is missing at least one.

[Republican Red]

Rush is NOT dating her. He just was very complimentary of her recently and she is constantly being teased by CNBC about being Rush’s crush

[longtermmemmory]

recreational use of left wing feminsts?

[angcat]

Don’t be too impressed. I was told those corporations have thousands of those positions. My cousin was one of many Vice Presidents at Merril Lynch.

"Who could not have a man-crush on that guy? And I'm not talking about the monkey either, I'm talking about the other one"

First Amendment guarantees her right to say such stupid things, but I sure hope her boss and her employer get holy heck for giving her the soapbox on which to insult the President.

Her attempt to cover up with "monkey in the middle" and Scarborough's attempts to distract did not cover the gross unprofessionalism.

Conversely, does anyone remember a newscaster or journalist getting called out for calling Governor Clinton 'Slick Willy' or 'The Bent One' during his administration?
