Planet Wingnut News for Sunday.




Sally Quinn sniffs at that gauche Alan Grayson fellow, and White House's 'war on Fox', in classic Village style
Sally Quinn went on The O'Reilly Factor to announce that she and all the other Villagers are just all a-flutter over the Obama White House's puzzling decision to stand up to its an organization that clearly declared war on his administration from its outset, i.e., Fox News.
But first she had to stop and sniff disdainfully in the direction of
Alan Grayson for his gauche style of political rhetoric:
O'Reilly: Do you know this guy? He sounds like a loon.
Quinn: I don't know him. But guess what? Here we are talking about him. And I think that's what this is all about -- he's obviously getting the attention she desperately needs.
O'Reilly: OK, there could be something to be said for that. He represents the Orlando area. But he's certainly kind of unhinged. When you hear rhetoric like that -- you know, the Dick Cheney shooting the guy in the face, and this and that -- doesn't it sound a little immature?
Quinn: Well, I think that it's worse than immature. I mean, what he said was so completely over the top that it sounds like -- it reminded me a little bit of Blagojevich, you know. I mean --
O'Reilly: No, that's good. That's a good -- yeah. Kinda unhinged.
Quinn: Yeah, unhinged. It made no sense. So I don't think you can take it seriously. And I also think that if he -- I can't imagine the Democrats feeling good about this. Or the White House feeling good.
O'Reilly: Or his constituents.
Quinn: But you don't want this guy on your team.


Beck Goes Batsh*t: To depict Obama White House as Capone-like thugs, he waves a Louisville Slugger
You know where the phrase "jumping the shark" originates, right? It's from
the episode of Happy Days where Fonzie, wearing his leather jacket and some swim trunks, jumps over a confined shark with a pair of water skis. As Wikipedia explains, the phrase originally referred to TV shows whose desperation for ratings leads them to indulge stunts that underscore their having "lost it."
Well, Glenn Beck is hardly desperate for ratings -- yet -- but on his Fox News show yesterday, he jumped an entire school of Great Whites with Pinky Tuscadero on his shoulders.
He devoted an entire 14-minute-plus rant to depicting the Obama White House as being like Al Capone and his gang of thugs in
The Untouchables, bashing people's heads in with baseball bats. And to illustrate the point, he waved about a big wooden Louisville Slugger and affected a tough-guy gangster voice, all to depict the administration as a bunch of petty thugs who threaten their opponents.

Why hasn't Coulter been certified nuts by now? Or Beck?

Listening to callers on WGN radio news one day, not one, NOT even one...thought Fox was a credible news source. Even thought the host was trying to get one single caller to hear, just ONE, who thought Fox was a credible news source.
General consensous of callers, Fox is opinion based network, or more acurately Nutwork and they just produced stories that were ratings based.

Judy forgot Bush and Cheney admitted that torture and waterboarding was done at Gitmo Cheney even took pride as he said it was done and when asked why he replied so what.

History has shown that the GOP along with Prescott Bush plotted to assassinate FDR and the facts prove JFK's assassination was done with full cooperation and help from those Leaders in the United States. We heard of other countries assassinating their leaders while we do the same. As today President Obama is getting assassination threats everyday and the call from the GOP is cheering to those citizens to do it.
