A Fox commentator just called Obama a vulgar name - "I mean, this guy is such a total p*ssy it’s stunning."
There are so many delicious layers to that insult. Éclairs get eaten. They seem firm enough on the outside but are actually soft at their core. They can’t handle heat. It’s just a brilliant metaphor, no matter whether you think it's appropriate in Kerry's case.
The line was clearly a little more candor than host Stuart Varney imagined he’d get when he set up Peters with this: “What were you saying to the TV as the president was speaking?”
Hey, at least Peters answered honestly.
Varney gave him a finger wag for coarse language: “Okay, Ralph, I can tell you are super angry, and I asked you what your reaction was, but I gotta call you. You can’t use language like that on the program.”
“I’m sorry,” Peters said.
(Update: Fox News host Howard Kurtz tweeted that the network has suspended Peters for two weeks and also meted out the same punishment to contributor Stacy Dash, who said on the air Monday that Obama appeared not to "give a [expletive]" during his Oval Office address.)
