Two Fox News personalities were suspended Monday for using profanities on air in response to President Barack Obama's Sunday night speech regarding terrorism, according to CNN.

Ralph Peters, a "strategic analyst" speaking on Fox Business Monday morning, said Obama "is such a total pu---" on live TV. (Video here)

Stacey Dash, an actress who starred in "Clueless" who is a Fox contributor, said the president "doesn't give a sh--" during a lunchtime broadcast of "Outnumbered," according to CNN. (Video here.)

Dash's comment was partially bleeped, unlike the first.

"Earlier today, Fox contributors Lt. Col. Ralph Peters and Stacey Dash made comments on different programs that were completely inappropriate and unacceptable for our air," Fox senior executive vice president Bill Shine said in a statement to CNN. "Fox Business Network and Fox News Channel do not condone the use of such language, and have suspended both Peters and Dash for two weeks."

In response to the suspension, Dash tweeted: "Consequences. Some of us have to pay them. Gladly."
