Hemmer quickly corrected Trotta, having noticed that she had said "Osama" when she meant "Obama." At this point, Trotta said, "Obama. Well...both if we could!" Trotta then laughed gleefully.

1. I trust you had a nice Memorial Day Weekend away from the 'puter!

2. Arrest them...

Or at least give them a fine.

[truthisfreedom]

3. I'd suggest a Secret Service visit, and a no-fly listing.

And a little explanation from them that suggesting someone should knock of a presidential candidate "if we could" while on the air is reason to be put on an FBI watch list and no-fly list.

4. There's an action thread about this on the front page, includes appropriate action links. nt

6. I saw that video

It is horrifying that anyone could utter something like that. I don't see why they would air that.

7. AND she is rewarded by that host lauding her "forthright-ness"!!

I included that fact in my remarks to the FCC.

8. Good for You

We should all bombard them with complaints.

10. Media Reform is vital to the future of this country. Corporate Media is responsible for a great deal

of what Bush's Unitary Executive has gotten away with. If the Media Elite wanted Impeachment, there'd be Impeachment.

17. Damned liberal media

no doubt trying to drum up sympathy for that guy Osama...Obama...whoever.

Given your apparent newness around here, I will--this time only--choke down my aversion to doing this, and attach a thingie.

11. Will there be a CITIZENS ARREST????

[Dreamer Tatum]

12. What an a-hole

They don't even try to conceal it anymore...

[Obama4ever]

14. This really scares me

The reactionaries are on the march against Obama for sure, and will stop at nothing to keep him from the White House. If something happens to him there's gonna be hell to pay for sure.

[Towlie]

16. Yes, it's scary.

Just realizing that there are people among us with such twisted minds is scary enough. To think that this particular woman broadcasts to a large fan base that presumably accepts her words is terrifying.

[LynnTheDem]

15. That's the rightwing "family values".

Advocating death is their way of life.

21. TTBOMK, that is a crime! If I talked about wacking her, I'd be guilty of a crime, right?

All you have to do is get it on tape!! Crime solved.

Now, who is going to do something about it under the Bush Junta?
This is another good test of whether we have Justice and Democracy!

[L. Coyote]

22. What next, laughing about overthrowing the Kennedys?

I think I finally realize the one and only good thing about the Bush Junta coming into power in 2000.
They accomplished it without killing a Kennedy!

[truthisfreedom]

23. When Obama gets in, I hope he no-fly-lists ALL faux employees.

Every damned one.
