So is Spicer off the hook?

It's been a week since his offensive comments about the Holocaust, and there's no longer any discussion of him being fired or resigning. Does that mean he's survived yet another controversy???

Similarly, I'm seeing reports that O'Reilly will indeed be back on the air at Fox. Is there any accountability in right-wing world?

None of this is giving me any comfort that the case against Trump is going to turn out any better than Fitzmas. . .

That's the problem with comedy - it normalizes. Also, with "cuteness" (with Shrub) - normalizes. UTUSN Apr 2017 #4

Just for the sake of seeing Melissa McCarthy. But I think Spicer's on his way out.

I say we keep him around to poke him with a stick. He always produces, he just doesn't know what he's producing.

Evil and corruption no longer have any consequences in the new world.

"Is there any accountability in right-wing world?"

Clown Spicer never really was on the hook (tRumputin was happy with him and his stupid and past insensitive "Holocaust" presser last week), and NO there's no accountability in the right-winged world. Dems hold themselves accountable and thuglicans hold Dems accountable
