If you happen to see somebody who is raving about various conspiracies and God, don't assume that they are having a psychotic episode. According to the cretinous curvy couch conservatives on Fox & Friends, these deranged individuals are on God's private chat line. Yes it's true. Those living in the reality based community understand the pathological basis for mental health problems. Meanwhile, the Fox friends are living in the days when leeches were used for surgery and schizophrenia was considered to be a manifestation of demonic forces. Reinforcing the suspicion that Fox & Friends is the go to show for 6,000 year old earthers, the buffoonish brethren actually seem to believe that the US House of Representatives stenographer, who went into a bizarre rant about God and Freemasons, was "bringing a message from God." Paging Dr. Ablow?!
Wednesday night, a woman acting as a stenographer for the US House was escorted out of the chamber and referred to a local hospital for a mental health evaluation after she got to the podium and yelled the following:
"He will not be mocked. He will not be mocked. The greatest deception here is this is not one nation under God. It never was. It never was. Had it been, it would not have been — the Constitution would not have been written by Freemasons. They go against God. You cannot serve two masters. You cannot serve two masters. Praise be to God, lord Jesus Christ."
On the next day's Fox & Friends, Elisabeth Hasselbeck provided the backstory for the "outburst that has everybody talking." Video of the woman was shown. Brain Brian Kilmeade summarized what Dianne Reidy was screaming. Steve Doocy mentioned that the woman was taken to a local hospital for a psych evaluation before reading an e-mail from "somebody who identified himself as a minister" (church of the poison mind?) who said that “It was not a mental episode, what she was doing was known as an exercise of the gifts of the spirit where she brought a warning and a message from God regarding the activity."
Video of Chad Pergram, a Fox News Capitol Hill producer, was shown in which he told Megyn Kelly that he was familiar with the woman who is "very religious." Pergram noted that it was very unusual for a congressional staff member to be involved in this type of thing. Doocy read another e-mail from somebody who said that “Amazingly, this religious and obviously sweet lady gets fed up and speaks her mind, something we all have tried to do. She brings up our dear Lord and she gets a mental evaluation? I think it should be the other way around." Hasselbeck said "sure." Kilmeade acknowleged that when a person gets behind the Speaker's chair and starts yelling, "you do have to pull her away." Hasselbeck spoke of past incidents when security had to step in "and we are thankful for those but who knows, maybe she just saw something that didn't seem right and mounting frustration and tensions brought it out of her."
Who knows, maybe this woman will be hired at Fox News which, as evidenced by this Fox & Friends segment, has no problem with blathering idiots who love Jesus. Seriously, if anybody is in need of a check up from the neck up, it's the hosts of Fox & Friends!
Psst - The gang on Fox & Friends are really lizard people. I know because God told me so.
10/29/19 update: Video is no longer available.
I don’t know if it’s just me, but I don’t think the FoxFiends would be quite as willing to be so approving of her message.
Once it became apparent that both crises had been averted, Reidy realized that she only had a lot more ‘stenographing’ to expect in her miserable life.
And then her head exploded.
