    This guy just referred to the September 11th attackers as "a-s-s-holes" on national TV! Thank you James for breaking the bad-language barrier!!

    I've always respected this guy. Now I like him even more. I hope CNN doesn't fire him!

    I saw that. It was hilarious. Afterward he announced that after his outburst that might be his last show.

    ... in anticipation of being dismissed? I hope not. He is a compelling participant in any discussion about just about anything.

    Set the bar kind of low for your heroes, don't you.

    I can't imagine they'd fire him for that. I heard "*******" on some cable channel the other day... can't remember which one.

    Not even that bad of a word. Now if he'd said "mother****ers", maybe.

    Interesting standards on television these days. Had "The Longest Yard" on AMC the other day and they didn't censor g.d. but they did censor bull****. Go figure.

    Did anybody hear James Traficant on Imus on MSNBC a couple of weeks ago.

    He called the FBI and the IRS *fokkers* on the air live. Imus didn't even disconnect the call..... they got a huge kick out of it!

    When Traficant kept on rambling they did finally end the call.

    "*******" is pretty good for CNN.

    The whole language barrier is stupid anyway. We can see people jumping out of collapsing buildings, and dogs being executed in a gas chamber, but we can't hear "mother****"?

    Unbelievable.

    I was watching Tommy Boy on some cable channel the other day, USA Network I think it was, and they censored "take a dump".

    Why is it unbelievable that some people find profanity offensive? I don't ****ing talk like this during staff meetings.

    Why do you have a problem with decorum?
