- joeomar, on 05/27/2008, -18/+170Liz comes from the same batch of cookies, like Clinton's, Bushes, McCains and the Cheney's. Unacceptable, Fox should be ashamed, I challenge all Americans to write all sponsors of Fox news and to every connection/channels Fox has. We can show them we are all Americans who care and love our country. Fox is an example of corruption, corporate greed, low morals and values, peace.

If this woman "jokingly" said similar about Lord Bush III, she would receive complimentary all expense paid vacation to Guantanamo inc., overnight. And not a moment too soon. - ChromaVita, on 05/27/2008, -1/+79Good thing online petitions are always successful...
- the3stars, on 05/27/2008, -6/+54What amazes me is that almost no one is picking this story up. You can bet if someone on ABC made a comment about McCain like this, all the major outlets would be going nuts over it. Lets hope we can start the ball rolling here at digg.(com)
- shadowmoose, on 05/27/2008, -13/+48This seams relevant.

- inactive, on 05/27/2008, -3/+25nice thumbnail. Maybe Charlise Theron will be playing her in an upcoming movie.
- biotch, on 05/27/2008, -6/+28same *****? ... no
- SaladCactusKing, on 05/27/2008, -12/+32Here is Rick Astley singing "Never Gonna make a tasteless unfunny joke about assassinating a presidential candidate and creating internet rage"
http://youtube.com/watch?v=eBGIQ7ZuuiU - yodaj007, on 05/27/2008, -2/+21Why must we fight? Can't we just hug?
- inactive, on 05/27/2008, -21/+41This is a call to action for all that find this offensive and unamerican. Send the emails, boycott the sponsors and vote the current party OUT!
- cadmiumpaint, on 05/27/2008, -12/+31Fox news is a joke.
Trotta is a *****.
nuff said. - insomniac8400, on 05/27/2008, -16/+34It's no big deal, Bush's other friends the Bin Ladens make the same type of threats on tv all the time. Our government isn't in the business of stopping terrorism. Look at Iraq, terrorist only went there because we did.
- inactive, on 05/27/2008, -9/+27Is there a petition to have her hung upside down by her genitals?
- Vash_aka_TK, on 05/27/2008, -0/+15You're an idiot if you think joking about an assassination is funny.
- inactive, on 05/27/2008, -6/+20Please send her to Gitmo, its the most humane thing we can do.
- TheRealToma, on 05/27/2008, -4/+18There's a button for "No preview image" too. Tho, it is the "Widescreen" Edition... as compared to the "Who watches this crap" Edition.
- inactive, on 05/27/2008, -0/+13Internet Tough Guy.
- kryptogrowl, on 05/27/2008, -15/+28Although I completely agree she should be fired and ostracized for such a stupid comment.
Can we refrain from wild speculation about what the Secret Service Might Do? Maybe I should submit and article. Should Hillary Clinton suspend her campaign? Should Ron Paul ambush the Convention? This is not news, it's not even opinion, just guess work. - inactive, on 05/27/2008, -2/+14Do they "jokingly" say that Bush should be killed? No. Their film merely explores the possibilities of how the investigation of a Bush assassination would be handled. Nowhere will you find the filmmakers saying that we should "knock off" Bush "if we could." This is in sharp contrast to Liz Trotta, who openly stated on national television that she would like to see Barack Obama assassinated.
Sorry, SaladCactusKing, your analogy fails miserably. Hopefully next time you'll do a better job of apologizing for Fox News commentators' treasonous acts. - sunlover52, on 05/27/2008, -20/+33I totally agree that this should be a call to action. Sign the petition now.
- sugarazor, on 05/27/2008, -2/+14If Keith Olbermann made a comment about assassinating Bush, FOX News and the right-wing media would call for him to be burned alive in the middle of Times Square.
- Poltron, on 05/27/2008, -6/+17http://youtube.com/watch?v=diArzr74WuE
- thirdcoastborn, on 05/27/2008, -8/+19you forget the huckabees
- inactive, on 05/27/2008, -4/+15***** irony. You pricks should talk about ignoring the bill of rights.
- jaydoj, on 05/27/2008, -0/+11what the ***** are you talking about?
- inactive, on 05/27/2008, -2/+11I know, I can't stop laughing. Can you?
- archiesteel, on 05/27/2008, -0/+8The major media is *not* "transparently left biased". It only seems that way to you because you're all the way to the right. Mainstream Media is made up of corporations (with the exception of PBS and NPR), and corporations are *at best* centrist.
Fox is a joke. - sugarazor, on 05/27/2008, -1/+9It hasn't been picked up because it happened over a holiday weekend, news outlets are working with bare bones staff. I'm sure people will be all over it tomorrow.
- Deadpixel1221, on 05/27/2008, -0/+8The googles, they do nothing!
- jdowland, on 05/27/2008, -3/+11I think that FOX News should be exposed for the farce that it is. They do these kinds of extremely manipulative things on a regular basis.
In this case it went way too far. There should be a limit to what the Public should accept from the Media. - Traxan, on 05/27/2008, -3/+10*****. Randi Rhodes TWICE suggested on the air that Bush should be shot and nothing was ever done to her.
- inactive, on 05/27/2008, -0/+7Don't kid yourself you wanker. The right would pillory Keith Olbermann. Hell they already do.
- whoreable, on 05/27/2008, -4/+11seems?.....sigh...kids these days.
- mytealjacket, on 05/27/2008, -5/+12Though she didn't say it as directly. I still thing what Hilary said was wrong, but Liz's comment tops it.
Could you just imagine, if say, 20 years ago a woman ran for president and got assassinated, and then Obama brought this up to explain why he was in the race? People would ***** bricks. - sdipaola, on 05/27/2008, -0/+7I sent mail to the nytimes,cnn,npr and democracy now, the day it happened. I asked them to report on it. still waiting.
- mytealjacket, on 05/27/2008, -4/+11Since there is true concern over Obama's safety, it's not funny at all. Nor would it be if it were about someone else. You don't joke 'like that', this woman is supposed to be mature and professional.
The worst part about it, is it seemed almost obvious she intentionally mixed-up Obama with Osama. I hope the 'joke' part wasn't scripted as well. - ultar6, on 05/27/2008, -1/+8It's amazing how often they keep making this 'mistake'.
- MrBeaver, on 05/27/2008, -0/+7someone should make a compilation.
- mistyblue1940, on 05/27/2008, -6/+13I agree, how do we contact Fox News about our protests to guests like this vile woman and allowing her to make a comment on the air about she wishes we could assassinate both Osama and Obama and laugh at her own comment.
And the host lets her get away with that comment!
DISGUSTING!!!
Fox 's slogan is Fair and Balanced, is such a joke, they don't know the meaning of either word "Fair" & "Balanced"
They are so one sided in their hosts and guests, other than Allen Colmes
I also agree with whatthefu, msnbc and cnn are the same, I think all these stations hire are Republicans.
So if anybody knows where to write and who to write to that will get the email about this, everybody should protest these horrible comments and fill their email boxes with complaints, not that they'd care anyway.
Thanks in advance - inactive, on 05/27/2008, -1/+7I wonder if there will be outrage over her saying that it has been a "colorful political season" in her apology.
- lamiaconfitor, on 05/27/2008, -2/+8If your hypothetical world were put to the test I am sure you would be proven wrong, neocon.
- laserblazer, on 05/27/2008, -5/+11Fox News is for idiots, Bush is an idiot, Bush's supporters are idiots and John McCain is an idiot. Let's stop focusing on what we already know and move beyond the idiot circus.
- Khanvalescent, on 05/27/2008, -1/+7There is a difference between famous and infamous.
- the3stars, on 05/27/2008, -0/+6Take a look at your comment history, I think you're more of a bot than anyone here. Why don't you spend some time explaining what it is that you like about whatever presidential candidate you support, rather than refuting every positive thing that is said about Obama?
