Look. Mark Halperin calling the president a dick on live TV isn't news. I wouldn't even give it a Slog post, ordinarily. But I think Joe Scarborough's shock that Halperin called the president a dick after Scarborough told him to try his luck with the MSNBC censors is embarrassing, and the fact that Halperin was indefinitely suspended from MSNBC is even worse. I hope that all the four-year-olds who watch Morning Joe—they're the only people on the planet who are going to learn anything from Scarborough's lame analysis anyway—are able to recover from the psychic trauma of hearing the word "dick." Let us pray for their poor, delicate souls.

Come on. It's 2011 and we're still wringing our hands over this?
