Dana Perino: Where’s Obama’s Speech About Dead White Babies?
While I’m sure that no one has been wondering where Dana Perino stands on race, her appearance on ABC’s “This Week” made it loud and clear. In a discussion about President Obama's remarks last week about race and Trayvon Martin, she responded to correspondent Pierre Thomas's explanation of the feelings of African Americans in the aftermath of the George Zimmerman trial by criticizing Obama for not talking about a white thirteen month-old who was killed by black muggers.

In case you missed it, Sean Hannity commented on his radio show airwaves about President Obama's remarks on Friday with the following: "Is that the president admitting" that he could have been Trayvon Martin because "he smoked pot and did a little blow?" Thankfully, MSNBC's Melissa Harris-Perry took on Fox News' #1 race-baiter, though she called him a "professional troll," and skewered him.
Read moreChris Wallace Whitesplains To African Americans That Black Crime Is More Important Than George Zimmerman
Apparently, the white hosts on Fox News just can’t stop lecturing black folks about what should concern them. And surprise! It’s not the subject that African Americans are talking about these days, i.e. Trayvon Martin. No, Fox News Sunday host Chris Wallace joined his colleagues today in whitesplaining to Congresswoman Donna Edwards and Dr. Benjamin Carson that they and other African Americans should put aside the shock, horror and grief that an unarmed teenager was shot and killed while walking home from a convenience store – with nobody being held accountable – and focus, instead, on why so many blacks are violent killers.
Read moreFr. Jonathan Morris Helps Distribute More Papal Get Out Of Purgatory Free Cards?
There were a number of reasons for the Protestant Reformation; but chief among them was resentment over the promise of time off from Purgatory in exchange for money used to enrich the coffers of the Catholic Church. These get out of Purgatory free cards were immediately jettisoned, along with the doctrine of Purgatory, by the Reformation. But they are still an element of Catholicism; albeit without the cash. While indulgences can be received by prayers and other Catholic stuff (Crusaders earned them by killing Muslims and Jews), today's modern Catholic, according to press accounts, can get some time out from the celestial green room by following the Pope on Twitter. This morning, in a subtle iteration of a favorite Fox meme about how the media aren't nice to Catholics, Fr. Morris explained it all to us. Actually he didn't. What the hell?????

Read moreFox Nation’s Disgusting Reaction To Helen Thomas’ Death
Three things are certain in life: death, taxes, and Fox Nation celebrating the death of someone they don’t agree with. This time, the victim is Helen Thomas who died, after a long spell of ill health, at age 92. Among the supposedly “civil and tolerant” comments Fox Nation claims to be committed to were people hoping that Thomas is burning in Hell, crude jokes about her becoming one of a jihadist’s 72 virgins, and a running meme of people saying “it’s about time.” Isn’t that just classy?
Read moreFox News, We've Got Your Email
It's mail call time again - for emails sent to us but meant for Fox News. I didn't do a mail post last week because we didn't have any worth posting. But Fox viewers had a lot to say this week and most of it had to do with the George Zimmerman trial. But while the volume of mail may have increased, the same cannot be said for the writing skills of Fox News viewers. Here for your weekend insights into the minds of Fox News fans is our latest batch.
Read moreHow Do You Think Fox News Wants You To Remember Trayvon Martin?
Trayvon Martin's family's attorney, Daryl Parks, visited the Hannity show last night - which, if you don't count the host's relentless advocacy on behalf of George Zimmerman, was not bad - for a rather fair and, yes, balanced discussion hosted by a guy who has got to be the biggest race baiter on national television. Perhaps the interview was too friendly for FoxNews.com producers. When they posted the clip on the internet, they called, "How should Trayvon Martin be remembered?" The thuggish photo was kind of a clue to what they were thinking the answer should be.
Read moreFox Fearmongers That Detroit Bankruptcy Is A ‘Wake Up Or Else’ Call
Guest anchor Jenna Lee and guest opened yesterday’s Your World by scaring people into believing the Detroit Chapter 9 bankruptcy (since ruled unconstitutional) will have a domino effect on the rest of the country. “$18 billion in debt is driving the Motor City into bankruptcy. Is Washington watching? Because the country is tackling the very same issues as the nation’s debt races toward $17 trillion.” She asked Dan Mitchell of the CATO Institute “Wake up or else, Dan?”
Read moreFox Regular Accuses Obama Of Inciting Violence At Trayvon Martin Protests
Yesterday, President Obama made some brief remarks about Trayvon Martin and the George Zimmerman case – and many Fox News contributors and regulars went into a frenzy of over-the-top attacks. Last night, on the O’Reilly Factor, Republican regular Brad Blakeman joined the derangement with his own comment, that Obama had incited “any violence that takes place” at any of the Martin-supporting protests that are scheduled for today.
