“Civil,” “America-loving” Fox Nation (just pay no attention to all that talk about wanting to murder our president and other Democrats) is giving some love to Allen West’s hate-mongering rant – in which he said President Obama and other Democrats should “get the hell out of the United States” – again. The website that purports to believe in “strengthening our diverse society by striving for unity,” once again has quite an odd way of showing it.  This time, the website run by O’Reilly ambush producer Jesse Watters is painting West as the victim of anti-American liberals. 

The Dallas Morning News reports that the Komen Foundation is reversing its earlier decision to stop funding cancer screenings at Planned Parenthood. This is after Fox "straight news" anchor Martha MacCallum said, during a discussion with "Concerned Woman for America" Penny Nance who supported the decision and a doctor who didn't, that "They're a private organization who should be able to spend their money as they see fit." Well, Martha, looks like those who care about women don't agree with you and we won!

The Fox News logo has the words "Fair& Balanced." However, their top brass, when challenged on their apparent lack of said qualities, claimed that the "opinion" shows, despite being part of the channel represented by the logo, are exempt from being "fair & balanced."  But when you have Fox "straight news" tag teaming with Fox opinion on a right wing issue that Roger Ailes wants communicated, you have a steaming pile of propaganda. Such is the case with Fox's promotion of the views of the Catholic Church regarding the mandate that they, as well as secular employers, provide free birth control to their workers under their health care plans. Fox & Friends has run seven segments promoting the church's position. Fox News has run four in which only one was "fair & balanced." And yesterday, "straight news" guy Bill Hemmer gave us the fifth report about this issue which featured yet another opponent of the policy as well as the Fox "fact" that "Plan B" is an "abortion pill." "Fair & balanced" at its finest!

Predictably, Fox News made a big deal out of Donald Trump’s endorsement of Mitt Romney yesterday. Trump got more than 16 minutes at the opening of On The Record to discuss his endorsement without host Greta Van Susteren calling him out too much on his hypocrisy given that he has slammed Romney in the past. But that was nothing compared to the flippity-flopping that Trump did in the middle of the interview as first he gave Van Susteren one unlikely explanation for Romney having pulled out of the Trump debate and then, when confronted with an inconsistency about that explanation, told her he had not said what he had just said. Sadly, Van Susteren let him skate.

Negative campaigning against Democrats: that’s Good, bring it on. But when Republicans turn attack ads on each other: all of a sudden, attack ads are BAD. And last night, Bill O’Reilly and Sarah Palin got kind of worried about them.

It’s no surprise that Sean Hannity and Michelle Malkin are soul siblings of hate. They are both conservative Catholics who would love to return to the days of a white, Christian America when minorities knew their place, gays were in the closet, the poor were invisible, and abortions were performed in back alleys. These were also the days when Catholic bishops wielded a lot of political clout. In the 21^st century, their power is greatly diminished but that isn’t stopping them from challenging, on the basis of religious liberty, the Obama mandate about providing free birth control to their employees. Aiding them in their “war,” is Fox News whose seeming non-stop coverage of this “outrage” includes Sean Hannity who, last night, interviewed right wing America’s only acceptable “anchor baby,” Michelle Malkin, who provided her trademark torrent of rapid fire invective against Obama. I really do think she should lay off the caffeine; but then she wouldn’t be as much fun.

On the Hannity show’s “Great American Panel” segments last night, GOP Special Victim Sean Hannity spent most of the first part whining about meanie attacks on Republicans. But after the commercial break, he called hate-monger Allen West – who just said that President Obama and other Democrats should “get the hell out of the United States” – a “hero.” Panelist and Fox News contributor Angela McGlowan was just as disapproving in  Part 1 and also called West a hero in Part 2.

It's not only Fox "opinion" that is aiding and abetting the talking points of the US Catholic Bishops who are outraged about the contraception employer mandate from the Obama administration. Official Fox "news" has also taken up the cause of those men who feel that religious liberty trumps women's health and are speaking out against the rule that requires all employer health care plans to provide free birth control. Yesterday, "straight news" anchor, Martha MacCallum provided a pulpit for Fox house priest, Fr. Jonathan Morris, to speak out against the ruling in a video titled "White House's Holy War?" Yesterday, "straight news" anchor Megyn Kelly provided yet another opportunity for Fox to assist the Catholic bishops in their jihad against American women with her panel of three men who oppose the rule. The title of the video provides the Fox News message, "Holy War Over Health Care Law." So "fair & balanced!"

Wonder if Gretchen Carlson thinks that our nation's Civil Rights laws are just responses to "political correctness?" I ask because the former Miss America and Jesus BFF seems to think that a Vanderbilt non-discrimination policy, which was put in place after a student was expelled from a Christian fraternity because he was gay, is just a silly example of "political correctness." Despite her claim that Fox & Friends is "fair & balanced," this morning's "PC Police" segment was the sixth in a series of attacks on Vanderbilt which included a statement, from Fox priest Fr. Jonathan Morris, that the leadership of "Vandy" is "slimey."  Once again, sweet lil Gretch misrepresented the policy in focusing on the bogus meme that it will allow atheists to run prayer groups. Once again, no mention of how religious anti-gay sentiment runs counter to a non-discrimination policy. And for the first time, Gretch let us know what she really thinks about inclusivity.  Can we say agenda? Bueller? Bueller?

On yesterday’s Your World, host Neil Cavuto used the “i” word as he suggested that President Obama might be impeached as a result of Republican legal efforts against his recess appointments. Cavuto’s own FoxNews.com noted that it’s quite likely the Republicans have no legal case. But somehow Cavuto didn’t bring that up in his discussion with Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), one of the litigants.
