i think he should openly apologies to Chelsea on national television.

He already did.

Consider the following sentence: "Bill Clinton pimped himself out to assorted central Asian dictators." Would it be reasonable to interpret that claim as meaning that Bill Clinton literally profited by performing sexual favors on the supreme leaders ...

Attention MSNBC journalists. You are not reporting on this campaign, you are acting as mouthpieces for the Clintons. It's their network, you just broadcast here.

Shuster - a longtime mouthpiece for the dem cong - hoisted on his own petard.

Be careful what you wish for.
The left wants all "offending speech" (whatever that is) censured.

The left's shills (especially MSNBC) gets bitten by their own Stalinist-think.

What a bunch of thumb-sucking crybabies.

Thought for the future: in a Hillary administration, how long will it take for blogs themselves be under threat of obliteration for crude remarks about Her Highness and her handmaidens and gentlemen-in-waiting?

the respect her parents have earned in how they raised her

I just threw up in my mouth.

Why can't someone even apologize like a normal human being these days.

How about "I'm sorry I used the term 'pimped'. It was inappropriate. My apologies to the ClLinton family". Next! Not another word need be said.

Shuster's groveling is far more offensive than his original faux pas.

As silly as it was, the question he asked is certainly legitimate. Why ask a question when you know the answer? To fill up media airspace. The answer is YES. Of course the CLinton's are using Chelsea to win votes. Duh. Is that a newsflash? How many politicians use their families to win votes? Many. Is it such a bad thing? No.

How tiresome is the Clinton's victimhood strategy? They have such a bunker mentality bordering on paranoia. If it isn't the VRWC - it's the madia's that not giving them a fair shake. Boohoohoo!

It's way past time to yank this horrible family out of the public's eye. Enough already!

Further, while Mrs. Clinton may be a female, she certainly no lady. Mrs. Clinton has been trashing her husband's girl friends and assualt victims for decade as whores or worst. The Clintons show no repect toward women, and certainly are not entitled to any in return.

As for Miss Clinton. She is twenty-seven years old. Either she realizes that parents were most misogynic couple ever to occupy the White House, or Chelsea is willfully dumb. If Miss Clinton wants to campaign for and endorse the a pair misogynists. like her parents, it is only right to question Miss Clinton.

I did not give a free pass to Caroline Kennedy for her endorsment of the Camelot myth and neither am I inclined to give Miss Clinton a free pass. These woman are adults, they need to learn some history.

Second, Shuster is (was?) the national correspondent for MSNBC. He's not a commentator, he's not a pundit, he's not an analysis. He's supposed to be a objective, straight reporter.

Yeah, I had a hard time typing that last sentence without laughing. His bias and tendentious "journalism" is obvious.

Anyway, he could have made the same larger point by simply using "sent out" or "pressured". Why not use those words instead? Let Stewart or Maher be the provocateurs.

News correspondents for major news organization's shouldn't - just should not - be using the word "pimping" to describe the campaign activity of candidate's families.

Never, never, never.

You might be on to something here. Keith Olbermann accused Bush of pimping Gen. Petraeus, and he's still got his job. I mean, its not as if there some sort of media double standard on accusing politicians of "pimping" people.
