MSNBC's Martin Bashir 'on vacation' after Sarah Palin remarks
Politico ^ | December 2, 2013 | Dylan Byers

Martin Bashir, the MSNBC host who has come under fire for the controversial remarks he made about Sarah Palin, is "on vacation" and will not host his namesake afternoon program on Monday, POLITICO has learned.

Sources at the network said Bashir had been temporarily suspended from the network following graphic remarks he made last month about the former governor from Alaska. In that segment, Bashir suggested that Palin should be forced to endure slavery like conditions, including the consumption of feces.

MSNBC spokesperson Lauren Skowronski told a different story: "He’s still out on vacation," she wrote in an email. Asked multiple times when Bashir would return from vacation, Skowronski did not respond.

As a US Senator, doesn’t he “represent” the whole state of New York? He’s not a Congressman with a district.

He’s a US Senator. He represents the entire state.

I don’t particularly want to hear Joe Donnelly or Dan Coats opinions on an Indiana traffic accident.

I wonder if he went for a “Foster in the park”? (aka, a walk in the park).

“He’s still out on vacaton.”
In a just world,he’d still be recovering from his injuries.

Bashir's language is typical of Obama and his downlow culture.

Human excrement is glorious to the kind of human Obama is introducing as the new Man.

Will we find him sobbing a corner, munching on a tootsie roll and wiping his eyes?

If dwelling with feces is slave-like, then how do any of those leftist folks justify their claims that the gay bath-house “lifestyle” is freedom?

He's on hiatus because he's a "poop mouth".

H/T to Anchorman.

He’s probably “on vacation” trying to think of ways to spend his secret bonus from MSNBC for the Palin remarks.

I doubt it. Hatred like this guarantees him a job and popularity with the left. They fight to win and we fight for civility.

I love that movie. It is the best thing Brad Pitt ever did.

I was hoping that the tootsie roll could be analogous to something he wanted to put in Sarah’s mouth, and he would be wiping his eyes due to a certain liquid that he wanted in Sarah’s eyes.

Knowing MSLSD he probably really is on vacation. They rewarded him.
