Fr. Jonathan Morris Compares Phil Robertson To The Pope?
Along with Christians, Muslims, and Jews have their respective defense leagues, Phil Robertson now has his very own defense league in the form of Fox News which has been squarely on the side of Robertson because of Robertson's exemplary Christianity which, of course, is based on the "God hates fags" theology. Fox's famous double standard couldn't be more apparent. When Bill Maher offends Christians, Fox News, as the defender of the Christian faith, is all over him. But when the LGBT community criticized Robertson for his hate filled, "Christian comments," the Fox talk is about how gays are the really intolerant ones. In its attempt to canonize Robertson, Fox's Martha MacCallum actually compared him to the Pope. And last Sunday, Fox's one true priest Fr. Jonathan Morris ignored Robertson's bigotry and praised his Christian theology of sin which, according to Morris, is just like the Pope's!

Bill O'Reilly's claim that his journalistic coverage of four wars put him on the same footing of bravery as military service was not just outrageous but was voted the Most Outrageous Quote of the Week by our readers this week. It was another slam dunk of outrageouness.
Read moreFox Already Blaming President Obama For Detention Of Military Personnel In Libya
As soon as Fox News reporter Ed Henry finished updating viewers on the news that four members of the U.S. military have been detained in Tripoli, Libya, the Kelly File brought out contributor John Bolton for Republican analysis. He got right down to making political hay of it. UPDATED
Read moreFox Promotes Privatizing The U.S. Postal Service
The entire panel of Forbes on Fox came out in favor of privatizing the U.S. Postal Service recently. The only dissent was that we’re not “ready quite yet.” Nobody pointed out – or seemed to care - that the Postal Service is extremely popular among Americans.
Read moreAlan Colmes Adds Too Much Pro-ObamaCare ‘Balance’ For The Kelly File
Although the Kelly File is touted as a non-opinion show that tells “both sides,” liberal Alan Colmes apparently told the President Obama side of ObamaCare a little too well last night. To protect the Fox News viewers’ ears, guest host Shannon Bream just had to jump in and help her conservative guest drive home some Republican talking points.
Read moreJuan Williams Helps Fox Racially Smear Jesse Jackson Over Duck Dynasty
Fox News has apparently forgotten its touching concern for freedom of expression now that Jesse Jackson has spoken out about Phil Robertson of Duck Dynasty. Not only that, but Fox is using the opportunity to racially smear him. Even worse, African American Juan Williams helped the effort on last night’s O’Reilly Factor.
Read moreTodd Starnes Outraged By 'Prancing' And 'Gyrating' Drag Queens
As a fine son of the South who loves Jesus and anything deep fried, Todd Starnes' delicate sensibilities are quite offended by men who flaunt their deviancy by donning women's attire and struting their stuff, as did the fabulous cast of Kinky Boots during the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade. When Toddles found out about that, he had himself a case of the vapors. This week, he seemed nearly overcome with dainty disgust over what has what has to be one of the most delicious (and fabulous) municipal mistakes, the town of Semmes, Alabama ever made. For some strange reason, the town's annual holiday parade included a team of African-American dancing drag queens. Suffice to say, many of the Christian residents were, I do declare, chagrinned and appalled as was Todd Starnes who, during a "war on Christmas" segment, on Hannity, had more vapors!
Read moreMike Huckabee: Phil Robertson's Values Are Christian Values
As part of its role as the media mouthpiece for the religious rights, Fox News has now become the media defender of Duck Dynasty's Phil Robertson who, in a GQ interview, made very disparaging and vile comments about gays and displayed an extraordinary ignorance of the realities of Jim Crow. So it's not surprising that Fox host, possible presidential candidate, professional Christian, and radical right wing homophobe Mike Huckabee would be leading the Fox cheerleading squad that is not only defending Robertson but claiming that it's really the gays who are bigoted. On Monday, Huckabee, once again, pimped his Facebook petition in support of Robertson and in so doing articulated the standard Fox argument that Robertson was just stating his faith and, according to the aw shucks Huckabee, saying the same things that lots of Jesus loving, Southern Christians say.
Read moreFox News Cheers On Armed Neighborhood Vigilantes In Oregon
Budget cuts have so reduced an Oregon county sheriff's department that armed vigilantes have formed to take up the slack. Think George Zimmerman on steroids. Not surprisingly, FoxNews.com has some glowing words.
Read moreOn Fox & Friends: Sarah Palin Warns Against 'Booting God' From Public Square!
Nothing says Christmas more than the Fox friends getting all warm and fuzzy about Christmas with Sarah Palin who, in case you didn't know, is valiantly trying to save Christmas from "angry atheists" who are trying to "abort Jesus." On Christmas Eve, the Fox Friends, in a warm and fuzzy ersatz Christmas cabin, once again, paid homage to Palin's new Christmas book in which she shares warm and fuzzy memories of past Palin Christmases. And just to make sure that all you ACLU type heathens know that she is Jesus' very own emissary in spreading the "true" meaning of Christmas, she shared some of her patented wisdom about what happens if you "boot" Jesus from - wait for it - civilization, you betcha!
