David Shuster, lemme holla @ you for a minute
Let us pour a little out for the immediate Career fortunes of David Shuster, shall we?
Be on the Lookout for the new book: How to Slang Your Way Out of a Job by David ShusterFor those of you who AREN’T on the crack of cable news political reporting, please watch the following video.
Now, once upon a time, when you said the word “Pimp” as a verb you were referring specifically to he that employs a woman to, ahem, entertain a man in exchange for money. That money went to the person, presumably a man, who put the woman in “business”.
That literal meaning still holds, but there have arisen more metaphorical definitions. These definitions include one that relates to the act of securing person A to work for person B’s benefit.
Of course, in the omnipresent eyes of the media cycle and under scrutiny that has ratched up several notches by virtue of poor word choice in some cases, nefarious political machinations in others, plain simple lack of common sense in others, and a combination of all those in the rest.
Mr. Shuster seemed clearly to be interested in being cutting edge by taking a risque’ verb and jabbing a heretofore pristine subject.
And let me add, parenthetically, that I understand the underlying issue involved and I have been rather bemused by the fact that Chelsea Clinton has played such a visible role while never taking fire from the media.
All that said, Dude was DEAD ASS WRONG.
So, Mr. Shuster, lemme holla @ you for a minute.
You DO understand that you fucked up NOW, right?
Your emails initially showed me that you didn’t quite understand the fuss.
C’mon dude, SHE WAS THE FIRST KID FOR EIGHT YEARS.
SHE’S WAS THE ONLY PERSON WITH THE LAST NAME CLINTON THAT PEOPLE HAVE NEVER HATED.
WTF WERE YOU THINKING???
Okay, I know you were thinking, but
WHY WEREN’T YOU THINKING ABOUT HOW NASTY IT SOUNDS TO BE TALKING ABOUT A MOTHER PIMPING HER CHILD???????
You know what? I can’t talk to folk who ain’t got good sense.
Since you wanna learn about pimpin, talk to my favorite pimp
Youtube link deleted.

You’re being facetious. Right, Ink? The woman is pimping out her daughter. She’s using her daughter’s - some might say inappropriate - labour for personal gain. And what’s with that clip? Surely, they could have included pictures of all the famous white, upscale, ivy-league hoes and Madams? Pimping is pimping - regardless of class.
