And saying msnbc is on "probation". Sort of makes Phil look like he's Rinse's b..ch, doesn't it? Rinse complains, Phil fires. Sad.

Right Wingers eat cheerios too; and you get the same value without taking a swipe at them, so why take the swipe? I understand it's gratifying for us, but it seems like a bad move on GM's part.

I thought the tweet came from someone at msnbc. That is what led to them being "on probation" by to right wing.

" If Republicans don't want to be perceived as racist they need to quit acting racist." I also said they shouldn't have apologized for speaking the truth.

Truth, smuth, the message is quite clear: all the RW has to do is *claim* offense, and we must buckle under to them.

That tweet is "offensive" like "have a nice day" is offensive. I'm sure you can find some clown who objects to both.
