Bye, Lou

Breaking News from the world of Pseudo-Journalism, from the New York Times:

"Lou Dobbs, the longtime CNN anchor whose anti-immigration views have made him a TV lightning rod, said Wednesday that he is leaving the cable news channel effective immediately."

What a loss, huh? For those of you who don't speak media language, in this case, the term "lightning rod" can be roughly translated as "lying racist prick."

“I’m considering a number of options and directions,” Mr. Dobbs added. "

Want to take a guess how many of those "options" involve Fox News?

"CNN indicated that it would name a replacement for Mr. Dobbs on Thursday morning."

I hear that Gollum is available.

"Mr. Dobbs met with Roger Ailes, the chairman of the Fox News Channel, in September. At the time Mr. Dobbs was viewed as a potential hire for the Fox Business Network. But a Fox spokesperson said Wednesday, “We have not had any discussions with Lou Dobbs for Fox News or Fox Business.”

No discussions with Dobbs. Well, then, I must be wrong. After all, if the information came from Fox News, it must be true, right?

Well, good luck, Lou, wherever you end up. I'm sure it will be much more comfy, one rung closer to Hell.

Yeah, right, Basil. What would us assholes know about the truth, anyway?

Thanks for the constructive input. I'm sure we all appreciate your contribution to our national political discussion.

Well, at least you kept it brief and punchy. I give you points for that. Come back any time.

YOUR country? It's Our country and we want YOU to get out!

Just kidding there, Mr. Fed Up. Thanks for your valuable insight. Come back any time. Green Eagle feeds on people like you. Yes, we've heard it before- wingnuts are lacking in nutritional value, but what does a parrot know?

"Get out of my country!"?

Wow, this guy has his own country.
It's good to be king, isn't it?


However, my advice is:
Take the meds.

It's Okay, Never Mind

The woman in this picture, equipped with the weapons and ammunition shown, was found outside a National guard base. She is apparently a big Glenn Beck fan, and believed that the base was a FEMA concentration camp. Think she's the only one out there? You just know this sort of thing is not going to end well.

Wingnut Wrapup

 Well, I haven't done one of these in a while, but I thought it might be fun to see what the wingnuts are "thinking" lately, so let's just dive in: And the big news: "Breaking! Trump Just Truthed He's "The Real Commander-In-Chief" Well, he said it.  It must be true.  He "truthed" it! You know it wouldn't take long for this sort of "reporting" to happen: "Maui Directed Energy Weapon Assault, Like 9/11, Paradise, CA., Malibu and Boulder Fires" Of course, it can't be the result of global warming.  It must be the deep state attacking Hawaii for some reason.  That makes much more sense.  Here's a small selection of headlines from the dozens and dozens of other articles about this alleged treachery: "New Patriot Underground: Hawaiian Wildfire: Possible DEW Attack" Maui: "An Orchestrated Apocalypse" "Maui Hawaii Has DUMBs Underground 8 to 10 Sex Trafficking Tunnels We Just Lasered Them Out!

Hamas

  Of ocurse I am going to take the opportunity to talk about the Hamas attack on Israel.   First, I'd like to talk about my background, or baggage, regarding the country.   I have lived in Israel, some years ago.   This was not for religious reasons; I spent several months there working on a movie.   During pre-production, weeks of location scouting and shooting the movie, I was all over the country, and spent a fair amount of time in the West Bank, where we also shot.   This included a lot of places that normal tourists would not see, including predominantly Arab areas such as East Jerusalem, the Arab quarter of the old city, Ramla and the southern part of Jaffa, which is predominantly Arab.   It also included heavily Orthodox areas like Mea Shearim.   I dealt with Israeli Arabs, Palestinians and Bedouins.     Here are a few things I believe I learned there:   First of all, the Palestinians I knew were perfectly normal people with the same interest in living a safe, secure
