Mark Halperin Calls President Obama A Dick
Mark Halperin apologizes but there is no sense in apologizing when you said something because you thought people weren't listening.
I have no idea how I missed this but apparently morning Time reporter Mark Halperin decided that it would be prudent to call the President of the United States a "Dick" on national TV. I won't even bother explaining. Just see it for yourself.....
Transcript

Mark Halperin: Are we on the seven second delay?

Mika Brzezinski: Lordy.

Halperin: I wanted to characterize how the president behaved.
Scarborough: We have it. We can use it. Go for it. Let’s see what happens.

Brzezinski: We’re behind you, you fall down and we catch you.

Halperin: I thought he was a dick yesterday.

Scarborough: Delay that. delay that. what are you doing? i can’t believe — I was joking. Don’t do that. Did we delay that?

Halperin: I said it. I hope it worked.

Scarborough: My mom is watching! We’ll know whether it worked or not.

A message to the presenters: Be careful of what you ask for. You can't take a nap with rattle snake and than act surprised when it bites you in the face. I think as a host you control the show and you can't egg someone on and then distance yourself from the consequences. In any case, you simply can't call the President a dick, at least not on TV. It's just a matter of respect for office.
