TYT- Sarah Palin Humbly accepts Martin's Apology, After fighting to get him fired

1. Anyone, in the media, who calls for a woman to be physically assaulted

Has no business being on a network, especially a progressive network.

Leave that shit to the limbaughs and becks of RW radio

2. what has she got on her head?

[marble falls]

3. Two thoughts: the origional comment was uncalled for and required repercussions ....

and if Ms Palin had anything to do with his firing during this Christmas "Season", she's also a Christian putting someone out of work.

Maybe this will end the the incident from being brought up over and over again. But I think this was a bit more than necessary punishment for Bashir.

4. I agree with Cenk

Martin should have stopped after reciting examples of how evil slave owners were, and that Palin's comparison of that to the deficit was disrespectful and dead wrong. But I also think some viewers might have come to the same conclusion Martin did. The damage she's done will likewise be recorded in history.

5. Four words:

Tiller... The Baby Killer.

Not only has Fox never apologized, but Billo still has his job. This is because right wingers never apologize for anything ever. If anything, the idea that Billo or Pig Boy or any of these other assholes should face any consequences for something so over the top & irresponsible enrages Fox-bots, who then double-down their support. Saying something like that and being condemned by sane people is like a badge of honor to these knuckle-dragging morons.

6. It never ceases to amaze me

the way so many progressive people demand "high ethical" standards in the struggle against people of great wealth, power and influence who have none, who have successfully spawned a mass media double standard for what is acceptable political commentary. We're in a class war for the survival of civilization and the future of our descendants. As for Palin, she'll do anything for enough money. The only reason she was offended was because Bashir implied she should have somebody shit in her mouth for free.

Bashir, should not have lost his job over this pathetic parasite. I hope everything goes wrong for her. Yet being a RW media darling and a Tealiban hero, she'll be able to con(shill) the intelligence challenged till the day she dies.

7. Wow, look at Palin up there on the high road

8. Sarah would never give someone a pass for speaking ill of or threatening women!

Bear in mind all of these were said before the above photo was taken:
"worthless bitch!"
-- Ted Nugent, on Hillary Clinton

"A toxic cunt!"
-- Nugent, again on Hillary

"two-bit whore!"
--Nugent, again on Hillary

"Hey Hillary---you might want to ride one of these into the sunset you worthless bitch...Since I'm in California, I'm gonna find-- she might wanna suck on my machine gun! Hey, Dianne Feinstein, ride one of these you worthless whore."
--Nugent, 2007

But I suppose Palin will excuse Ted as "just doing satire," the way she explained her giving Rush a pass for using the word "retard"
