You should hear me shouting at the TV every morning as I drink my coffee and double up on my blood pressure meds,

I hope this intern wears her suspension as the badge of honor it is.

Glad she wasn’t fired.

I’m only wondering which expletive was shouted, as so many are fitting for Dotard…

And why only one?

Colbert showed a clip, it was a simple 'f*ck you, Donald Trump" IIRC…

The simple old fashioned “fuck you” always works.

She was very respectful, and used his title. She said: “Mr. President! Fuck You!!”

Don’t. Be. Rude. There’s the 1st Amendment, and there are the Senate rules, and never the twain shall meet, because divided government? Or the opposite? (I’m not a lawyer, I’m not even funny, although I crack myself up sometimes, which might seem like cracking up to others, or not.)

And Colbert objected to her using the term “Mr. President.” LOL

Except when a republican is addressing an obscenity to a democrat, in which case it’s praiseworthy.

You’ve stated the obvious, sir, but sometimes it needs to be said out loud.

Self-indulgence and lack of maturity on the part of the intern. Those opportunities are highly competitive. Let her shout at her TV like the rest of us. What is this supposed to accomplish? It’s just ammunition for the other side.

For the ten millionth time - they don’t need ammunition they will make it up if there isn’t anything.

She exercised her 1st amendment right.

Why was the intern suspended for saying “Mr. President! Fuck You!!” after the honorable VP Cheney established the propriety of telling a US senator to “fuck yourself”? Maybe it’s only acceptable to use “fuck” as a reflexive verb.

No, No, No do not get down in the mud and wrestle with the pig
… you get absolutely filthy
… and the pig loves it…

Seriously Trump would be delighted to have some identifiable liberal /moderate shout profanity at him every day… would let him play to his base … and help him create more anger.

If so, how could it be that she was punished?

Seems like the wad who shouted “You lie” at Barack’s SOTU perhaps rendered rules moot in Congress. Especially since I don’t recall any censure.

I don’t think there was.

As always - IOKIYAR.

I’m pretty personally sick of that particular rule of living.

She yelled at him — and then she ran like hell away from the scene of the crime (so to speak).

True story.
