There is no depth to which Fox & Friends will not sink in its efforts to smear the president. Before the extent of Hurricane Sandy's impact was fully known, on Monday morning, Gretchen Carlson pimped yet another Fox & Friends right wing conspiracy. Forget "poll trutherism." The newest conspiracy is an iteration of the Fox advanced conspiracy which claims the Obama administration is doctoring the employment figures. According to former Miss America and Fox "friend," Gretchen Carlson, the president could use the hurricane to delay Friday's jobs report until after the election because, presumably, he doesn't want bad job numbers to affect the election. Her proof - er - nothing.
During a discussion about the jobs report, with Fox Business' Charles Payne, Gretch asked if "there would be an incentive to not release" the data. Payne gave out with a loud and long belly laugh and said that he thought Gretch was "asking the wrong person." Gretch thanked him for the laugh amongst "all this devastation." She continued: "It just comes top of mind."
As that truly estimable former vice-president, Dan Quayle, said, "a mind is a terrible thing to waste!"

Right Gretchen?
OR, maybe Patel is. I’ve read about teachers who pass their pets who can barely string together a marginally coherent sentence while flunking the student with the incredibly insightful research paper who, unfortunately, had a single misspelling and inadvertently single-spaced a line when he should’ve double spaced and failed to keep the right margin perfectly straight.
(Then again, what passes for “researches every topic thoroughly & does homework before going on-air” at FoxNoise would only merit a passing grade in any high school English class if the teacher were being pressured by the football coach and the school administration worried that the school’s star player might not be playing in that week’s “Big Game.”)
Reportedly, using these amazing powers, President Obama was able to conjure up Hurricane Sandy, strictly intended as an event to distract the viewers from the more important issues such as Benghazi and the inherent goodness and truth of Mitt Romney.
Some have also said that something even more frightening is planned for the day after he wins the election.
This is a simple fact-based test from actual events (2000 – end 2008) which FUx Nuze covered in great detail. At the end is the evaluation scheme Fux used.
