White House press secretary Jay Carney said that he called officials at MSNBC to convey to the cable station the administration's anger toward a remark made by an analyst Thursday morning.
Washington was abuzz Thursday after longtime Washington journalist Mark Halperin used a profane term to describe President Obama's tone during Wednesday's press conference.

Ha! Carney picked up the white phone.
Totally unnecessary. MSNBC is completely in their pocket.

Rush Limbaugh has been using the "dick" word all day without censorship, so I guess its OK.

I seriesly had to prick up my ears when I heard this. Golly, what a tender young pile of offal is this president. Not cocksure at all. Me too. I thought, they must be talking about President Johnson.

A small poem...

Seems the censor-on-duty should have apologized for being “asleep at the switch,” but nobody else.
To: Nachum
While this incident displays Obama's Narcissim the suspension couldn't happen to a nicer guy. "Game Change" was a hit piece on McCain, Palin, and conservatives in general while more than fawning on Obama.
Karma is a b****.

They were probably just upset due to inaccuracy.
The proper word to use should have been “urethra”.
