Just when you thought reprehensible Fox News lib Bob Beckel couldn’t possibly sink any lower, he announced that all you silly bitter clingers should get over 9/11 and “move on” already. Dismissing rape, serial misogyny and anti-Semitic dog whistles just weren’t enough for Bob.
Jonathan Hoenig immediately slammed the “despicable” comment and he wasn’t the only one.
"9/11 was a decade ago, move on"- @RobertGBeckel. How about "Never Forget"- @JonathanHoenig. Totally agree with Jonathan! #CashinIn

#CashinIn is explosive today! @RobertGBeckel says move on from 9-11-01. I agree with @JonathanHoenig 'instead of move on, Never forget!'

Beckel also said that liberalism is his built-in free pass for playing the race card.
.@RobertGBeckel says he can play the race card because he is liberal. Then he says we should move on from 9/11. Totally unhinged. #CashinIn

Race? #Capitalism treats people as individuals. Collectivists like @RobertGBeckel, @MichaelEDyson etc… treat people like barnyard animals.

@JamesYontrofsky The only people I know who obsessively talk about race are liberals. #Capitalism is colorblind.

Is there anyone left who’s not ready to “move on” from Bob Beckel?
Update:
Twitchy commenter CO2 Producer reminds us that in 2010, Beckel said, “Look, at some point, I know it’s sensitive here in New York and probably New Jersey, but we have to get over 9/11.” See the 7:17 mark in this video clip:
