Is Michelle Obama A Transvestite? GretaWire Readers Think So
We've been so focused on the hate at Fox Nation that we took our eye off GretaWire, a cesspool of racism and homophobia. Those two bigotries were combined in a recent thread called "Barry "married" to a transvestite? You bet." (H/T reader HP)

Palin Says “We Weren’t Fair To The Electorate” Not Focusing More On Rev. Wright And Bill Ayers
It felt like 2008 all over again last night (11/18/09) as Sean Hannity went out of his way to bring up Rev. Wright and Bill Ayers during his hour-long interview with Sarah Palin about her new book. Why would Hannity waste time on this non-issue, if not for a sheer desire to hate monger against President Obama? In response, Palin had the nerve to pretend that talking more about Wright and Ayers was not negative campaigning, just being “fair to the electorate.” With video.

Thank goodness Fox News is fair and balanced. If they weren’t, Sean Hannity would have wasted time asking Sarah Palin during their hour-long interview last night (11/18/09) about the many inaccuracies in her new book, the response of the McCain campaign to the allegations she made against them and pressed her on why she really quit her job as Governor of Alaska in the middle of her term.

Palin wholeheartedly agreed. With video.

Another Day, Another Death Threat On Fox Nation
This one targets Attorney General Eric Holder and appears on a thread about Clint Eastwood so it's also way off topic. Hat tip to reader Dave D. who found the comment. It not only got past the Fox Nation moderators but sat there for more than 24 hours (and counting). We just reported the comment so we hope it disappears soon. But we've got a screen grab to show you what passes for reasonable discussion on the "fair and balanced" website.

Connecting The Dots... Glenn Beck's Penchant For Extremists And White Supremacists As Guests
Glenn Beck often attacks the Obama administration with McCarthyesque, guilt-by-association accusations. As it happens, Beck has a bit of 'splaining to do about some of his own radical associations. Sam Stein at the Huffington Post connected the dots and found a rather long string of extremist, white supremacist guests repeatedly hosted by Beck on his shows. (H/T Lula)
