Calling the pimp police: all units to Berkeley…

Waitaminute. Can they say this? (photo by “Zombie”) So when you use this word about the Clinton clan, it’s awful and despicable and offensive. When you use it about Bush and the U.S. Marines in a Berkeley protest, it’s cool…….

Well, Hillary can’t cry again, so now she goes for the “Outraged Mother” vote.
“How DARE you say that about my child!”
The Oprah fans will fall in line.

Just how many states vote this weekend?

Exactly right. Only problem is…who watched MSNBC? Aren’t their ratings at the bottom of the already sub-par cable news ratings barrel?

Question: Now that we have all established a new standard of “non-offensive journalism” what will Olbermann’s show consist of?

Remember when Chelsea told the kid reporter (a fifth-grader if I remember properly)that, “I don’t talk to reporters”?

The Clintons want to do things their way – be able to say and do anything they want, while at the same time stifling others.

If Chelsea is going to be an active part of the campaign, she and her parents should have a thick enough skin to tolerate other people’s free speach. Just like the Bush daughters tolerated the nasty things said about them in 2004, without President Bush stepping in to castrate any male that said something nasty about them.

Hillary has effectively castrated David Shuster.

I cannot help laughing so hard I am ready to pee in my pants! Here we have the Clintonistas #1 Mainstream Media Cheerleader having one of their own dare to step on the Sacred Name of Chelsea and now he is paying the ultimate price for his unforgivable comment. Now you can bet that if someone like Madman Mathews or Olby-Spew made a comment like this and directed it towards one of Bush’s daughters, it would hardly make a ripple as far as PMSNBC is concerned. But so much as dare put Chelsea Clinton in a bad light for even a fraction of a second, it would be better if the person responsible had never been born. In other words, it’s the same old mainstream media hypocrisy.

Megadittos!

What if a reporter had said this about a Bush daughter? Not a valid comparison. Bush twins aren’t being used by their parents as instruments in the political process (and they keep a low profile). Chelsea is a campaign operative.

I’m not familiar with this Shuster person, but if Hil really wanted to shelter the daughter from political fire, she wouldn’t be using her (’pimping her’) in her campaign. But then to use her and claim she is off-limits for attack? Well, that’s just more of the same ole Clinton bs… that they put out to have their cake and eat it too.

Exactly. As another commenter stated, this is a trumped-up scandal o’the day because MSNBC is fawning all over Obama.

Each day we learn more about what it takes to offend the feminists and the Left in this country. They are offended not so much by deeds against women as by words (consider rape victims found guilty, women used as suicide bombers, female “circumcision”, Burkhas). They reserve their greatest sensitivity for those who are most like them (Western liberal elites, female, white, upper class, bi-coastal). Even if you fit the criteria to be an eligible victim, you must also be sure to have the correct perpetrator (conservative white male not interested in jihad against them). Heaven help you if any of the stars do not line up right or if the perpetrator is a champion of their cause! (Bill Clinton). What makes for true entertainment is when feminists are caught in their own hypocrisy and it becomes painfully obvious how evil they are. Not a peep about Bill’s pathological behavior, but outright indignation about an off-hand comment about his daughter. That’s rich! Not a word about the slaughter of women by jihad, but rage at a verbal slight by an innocuous reporter. That’s evil.

This is what you get for speaking truth to power. All during the Billy Jeff presidency, Chelsea was “off limits.” However, the press could slice and dice Jenna and Barbara Bush nine ways to sundown… but hey, no problem. God forbid you should diss Her Royal Highness, Princess Chelsea. Hillary’s reaction betrays what her presidency would be like: off with your head if you dare to speak out against her or her kid. Hey Hillary: grow a spine or a pair of cajones, suck it up and move on. Save the whiny, teary-eyed, petulant bs for someone who believes it. You and your brat are not untouchable goddesses and this is not the Roman Empire.

Satisfying to see this “reporter” being forced to apologize, what a weasel. Unfortunately, allows Hillary to play the victim again and no doubt she will get a boost. First it was Matthews being sexist now Shuster. Almost deliberately helping her. Vast left-wing conspitacy.

I don’t get it. When did Chelsea earn my respect and how did she do it?

I’m with Shuster on the original comment- You’ll work for mommy, show up at rallies to wave your and laugh in front of regular people (pretending as if you live in a normal family yourself), show up at sororities you weren’t even a member of to talk about your mommy, but you won’t take questions from even a grade schooler. Spells media whore to me.

Shuster and Herr Olberdouche routinely say worse things about conservatives. Where’s the apologies and suspensions for that?

I don’t get it.

They are, in fact, pimping out their daughter. It’s a term that’s now part of the common vernacular, with no necessarily sexual or gender based connotation. He was factually describing exactly what the Clintons are doing: cynically using her in a ploy to gain votes. Pimping her out to the youth vote (who won’t vote anyway).

Is it just because she’s female? If he’d use the same phrase about Romney’s sons, would no apology be necessary?

Scratch that. Of course not. You can’t offend Republicans. Media rule # 1.

Nevertheless, I don’t get it.

I have to go watch Pimp My Ride now.

An unfortunate choice of words, to be sure, but now Hillary is indeed pimping out her daughter as a tool in her faux maternal outrage. It’s simply nauseating. Chelsea has joined the big leagues as a POLITICAL MOUTH PIECE for her mama who wants to be President of the United States. It comes with the territory.
