Remember "Trapper John" in the TV show "MASH?"

He's become a complete and total asshole.

Fox Panel Imagines Hillary Clinton Assassination Scenario While Distorting Her Comments On Benghazi

A panelist on Fox News' Cashin' In drew an odd comparison between Hillary Clinton's past remarks on the attacks on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi and a hypothetical scenario in which she was assassinated.

On the May 3 edition of the show, panelist Wayne Rogers criticized the Obama administration's response to the September 2012 attacks and in particular then-Secretary of State Clinton's comments at a Senate hearing, in which she asked "what difference at this point does it make" when questioned about the editing process of a set of talking points relating to the attacks.

Distorting the nature of her comments, Rogers asked his fellow Fox panelists, "Imagine that Hillary Clinton runs for President and gets assassinated in the process and somebody shows up -- a Congressman -- and says, 'well, what difference does it make anyway?' I mean -- The New York Times would have it on the front page."

Host Eric Bolling agreed, adding, "They would have a field day."

Co-panelist Juan Williams quickly explained to Rogers and Bolling that they were distorting comments Clinton made while testifying about the attack.

4. Wayne Rogers--such a shock

from such a talent. That's why he was an award-winning--Oh wait--he's been a has been for as long as MASH has been off the air. A few episodes in Love Boat Purgatory and then back to even shittier TV roles. What's he doing these days besides raving on like a wackobird and kissing Fox ass? Maybe this is the only way he can get on TV.

5. He left MASH, because it interfered with this business dealings.

He's been a stock market player for decades, making tons of money that way.

Acting got in the way of his business dealing.

12. Not exactly. He left MASH and continued as an actor for years doing gigs a person only does for

money, such as Murder She Wrote, pilots, a sitcom for several years, TV movies, lesser roles in larger movies....the man worked for a living for years after he split MASH and clearly did not become otherwise affluent for some years.

14. He had a short-lived show in 1976 called "City of Angels"...

He played a PI in the 1930s. It was a pretty good show. I enjoyed it.

6. Maybe KARMA gets him and he walks into the wrong side of a gun.

11. I think Karma did its thing already on his looks...EWW...have you seen him on those

TV commercials (I forgot for what product)? He's not aged gracefully...ghoulish wrinkled skin and my gawd, that dye job on his hair! He really needs help with his beauty treatments...

7. Rogers, Busey, Craig T Nobody helped me Nelson

Should make a new TV show The Has Been's Who Have Nothing Now.

8. Terrible

I liked Trapper John the character, but Rogers is an asshole.

9. Trapper John, the way Rogers played him, was kind of an asshole too

Elliott Gouid's Trapper was a far different character, and much better than Rogers' Trapper.

13. I think the writers didn't do much writing for Trapper. It was all about Hawkeye.

BJ's character was more fleshed out. Trapper and Frank were both very one dimensional characters.

15. The MASH TV program really was the Hawkeye and Hot Lips Show

[Liberal_in_LA]

10. wow.
