Martin Bashir Resigns From MSNBC
Mediaite.com ^ | 4 Dec 13 | Tommy Christopher

Posted on 12/04/2013 11:44:38 AM PST by seanmerc

Just over two weeks ago, MSNBC host Martin Bashir delivered a harsh piece of commentary that culminated in the suggestion that someone should “s-h-i-t” in former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin‘s (R-AK) mouth. Bashir offered an abject apology on his next broadcast, but a chorus of critics continued to demand action against the host. After a reported “vacation” for the host earlier this week, Bashir announced, Wednesday afternoon, that MSNBC and Martin Bashir are parting ways.

He might end up with his pal oprah. His ‘commentary’ would fit right in with hers. Seeing as how we pale peeps made oprah the wealthiest black woman on the planet, she could probably pay to have every one of us snuffed thereby ending odamnit’s problems forever.

A small victory but diluted by the fact that Bashir ‘resigned’ and wasn’t fired. Diluted even further with his lame ‘what was said’ line, as Bashire distanced himself from his own vile words. However, considering this slug worked for MSNBC and is a longtime hater of conservatives - Sarah Palin being one of our best - his ‘resignation’ is welcomed, all the same.

Next stop for Martin Bashir: White House Press Secretary.

“He should resign from the human race. Oh yes. He already did.”

For him to do that, he would have had to be part of the human race to begin with.

Think about that first bit... "what was said"? Interesting way taking responsibility that!

Passive voice has always been every sleaze bag's best friend.

I agree. He should have been fired. I wonder where he will turn up next.

Obama used the acronym W.T.F. for “Winning The Future”. She called attention to it; that’s how that started and why she still uses that acronym. Oh, IC; you really knew that all along.

“Polls” being for strippers is just too racy and obscene for gentlefolk like you and me. I’m personally offended by it. Does it bother you as much? If so, never ever ever watch or listen to her again ever. Or make comments about her raciness and abject obscenities on FR. Fair?

Thats why I have said repeatedly that liberals are the scum of the earth..they made such a fuss when Rush Limbaugh called Fluke a “Slut” yep not a peep from those same liberals when a Conservative woman is attacked and told to have poop put in her mouth..I said it once and I will always say it, liberals are pure scum. Ive never met a liberal that I like, they are all vile, depraved pieces of crap

Bashir, Baldwin, Olbermann.

The MSNBC is losing their big spokesmen. And yet Obama is going on this network to give interviews because it is his only friend currently in the media.

I do believe the left is crumbling. It can't happen fast enough for me.

Would 'deflect' as in deflection be the same as a redirect?
