It's been another week of Fox News outrageousness and we've got the quotes to prove it. But in this feature, you, our readers, get to have some fun. Check out our latest selection of quotes and cast your vote for the most outrageous. Because while many can be nominated, only one can be the Fox News Outrageous Quote Of The Week.
And this week's nominees are:
Bill O’Reilly's racial tirade of whitesplained solutions for African Americans:
They blame guns, poor education, lack of jobs. Rarely do they define the problem accurately. So here it is: The reason there is so much violence and chaos in the black precincts is the disintegration of the African American family. Right now, about 73% of all black babies are born out of wedlock. That drives poverty and the lack of involved fathers leads to young boys crowing up resentful and unsupervised. When was the last time you saw a public service ad telling young black girls to avoid becoming pregnant? Has President Obama done such an ad?
African American Juan Williams reacting to O’Reilly’s racial tirade: “That’s bold and fresh! That was you with passion. I haven’t seen that kind of passion from you in a long time. I am just impressed! I thought it was terrific.”
Birther and serial bankrupt-business head Donald Trump analyzing President Obama’s economic speech: “The people in the country, many of them are not working. And that’s both by their choice and actually by (Obama’s) choice.”
Sean Hannity’s adolescent description of President Obama’s economic speech: “When we come back, we’re gonna show you the most arrogant, despicable moments of today’s never-ending Obama speech on the economy. It’ll probably leave your stomach churning.”
Fox guest Ed Whelan, alleging that an Obama-nominated judge for the federal circuit court will “wipe out any limits on government.”
Charles Payne: “In my mind, and I hate to say this, but I think President Obama would love to see civil unrest in this country very much like the Arab Spring.”
Sarah Palin, suggesting that she and John McCain might have won the 2008 campaign if she had been allowed to talk about Obama’s lack of knowledge and experience.
I was banned from talking about Jeremiah Wright and Obama’s friend, Bill Ayers, is the character that he befriended and kicked off his political campaign in the guy’s living room. Couldn’t talk about that. Couldn’t talk about Obama’s lack of knowledge and job experience and the things that, the things that he said like, uh, American had 57 states, things like that. In the campaign!
Greta, this is important for Americans to understand. I was not allowed to talk about things like that because those elitists, those who are the brainiacs in the GOP machine running John McCain’s campaign at the time, said that the media would eat us alive if we brought up these things. So what did that get us, though? What that got us, this kind of complacency and a self-censoring of a campaign where we weren’t allowed to tell the truth about who this candidate was, Barack Obama? What it got us was a list of these scandals.
