Fox & Friends...

These fucking idiots are really starting to piss me off. I make no secret of my hatred for things that are so unfathomably obtuse, one has to literally make him/herself dizzy and then bash one's head off a wall several times, just to be able to comprehend said situation. This is the situation in which I have recently found myself when reading about Fox & fucknuts. Today however, in my opinion, this set of jackasses has now reached a previously unknown (and previously believed to be unattainable) state of mental atrophy. After just now forgetting the brainless orgasmic schadenfreude they displayed over the completely untrue "Obama madrassa" story (Jon Stewart weighs in), I check out Newshounds this morning to find this exercise in mental greatness:

'W Kicks Nancy's Assaud' was the headline of the NY Post that Steve Doocy read on the air to the overwhelming laughter of Judge Andrew Napolitano. Under the banner of Problems For Pelosi Doocy said that in the words of one she was over there "cavorting with the enemy." Though he didn't say who that one was. This was the overwhelming theme on Fox and Friends today.

Note: Bitchin' writing with that headline, New York Post - hilarious.

Doocy repeated that Syria was a state sponsor of terror. Camarota asked if just anyone could go over and negotiate with Syria, just leapfrog the administration and what their policy is. She said she asked her good friend the judge, (Judge Andrew Napolitano was filling in for Kilmeade in the first hour of Fox and Friends).

The judge said that the president was the sole organ of foreign policy. He said she could go there as Nancy Pelosi citizen and member of the House of Representatives. If she attempts to speak for or alter American foreign policy? He said absolutely not. He added that the president was right, that it has been the goal of the world to isolate them because they are a state sponsor of terror so when she brings an entourage over there (and even if that party contains Republicans) she frustrates the presidents foreign policy.

Doocy went on about her touring and wearing her head scarf. He broke to video of Bush who said they were a state sponsor of terror and were expediting foreign fighters from Syria into Iraq.

The president is "the sole organ of foreign policy"? Errr....that organ has gone into serious failure, your honor. And while she IS a member of the house, she is also the Speaker of the House of Representatives - and third in line to be president. As for it being "the goal of the world to isolate Syria" - Well, that's just bullshit. Not more than six months ago, the Iraq Study Group suggested that the United States should engage Syria in diplomatic relations, which a democratic strategist mentioned in the second hour of the show - only to have her conservative counterpart say Pelosi was undermining the president's foreign policy. Again, what foreign policy?

I almost wish I could have seen the look on Doocy's face as he read that Post headline. I'm sure he was smiling ear to ear. He gets so damn excited about bashing democrats he almost seems rabid. Of course, this could all be method acting...He may be actually reminiscing about his last encounter with the "Sloppy Cronkite".

I'm dead serious when I say this...I think myself and a group of friends could binge drink until five in the morning - take a half hour power nap - get in front of some cameras with a couple of cups of coffee - and put on a show with more mental acuteness than this bunch of clown shoes.

(Update: Yesterday, when I read that NY Post headline, I thought something looked wrong, and imagine my amazement when I discovered that the paper spelled Syrian President A-S-S-A-D's name incorrectly. Great fact checking shitheads!)
