Malkin: Let's Impeach President Obama!
Please, somebody start a Hatemongers Anonymous 12-Step group for Michelle Malkin. She could have plenty Fox News homeys there with her but if anyone seems powerless over hate mongering and in need of an intervention over it, it’s Malkin. She seems incapable of going more than a few seconds before becoming overrun with sanctimonious hostility. Last night’s case in point, Malkin appeared on the Hannity show and gleefully smiled as she urged viewers to “contemplate” impeaching our “Jihadi-coddling” president.
Read moreDennis Miller Blames Welfare & Sandra Fluke For Demise Of His Country
Rather than acknowledging that the majority of Americans weren't that into the Romney/Ryan gospel of screw the poor, the right wing is blaming the GOP loss on - wait for it - poor people who voted for Obama cuz they want free stuff. For Bill O'Reilly, this is truly scary because, in addition to wanting free stuff, these lazy slugs are part of the hordes of scary, black/brown people that are making white people a minority in Bill's America. But Bill isn't the only one who looks back longingly on an America where black/brown people knew their place and didn't get hand-outs. He isn't the only one who fondly remembers the days when the only access to abortion was in "back alley" procedures. His mini-me, failed comedian Dennis Miller feels the same way while sadly recognizing that the times, they are a changing. Awww...
Read moreAndrea Tantaros Election Sour Grapes: Women Are One-Issue Voting Sluts!
Andrea Tantaros joined the Fox News Sore Losers Club yesterday as she went on a rant that suggested that women only voted for President Obama because they wanted free birth control and that Obama exploited them by indulging their filthy habits!
Read moreMore Election Sour Grapes: Hannity blames one Black Panther for the election loss
Oh, woe is me, gentle reader! Is Sean Hannity going to spend the next four years trotting out all his Obama-bogeyman stories, and venting about why the American voters were so stupid as not to have paid any attention to them? Last night it was voter intimidation by Black Panthers, a four-year-old issue which has been dredged up again, and he chose to try that one out on Herman Cain, with mixed results.
Read moreBob Woodward Smacks Down Hannity's "Liberal Media" Election Sour Grapes
Bob Woodward was back on the Hannity show last night. And while I’m not happy Woodward continues to ignore the kinds of sleazy tactics that Sean Hannity employs on a regular basis – and thus gives him a stamp of legitimacy he doesn’t deserve – Woodward very directly and unequivocally smacked down Hannity’s attempts to blame the “liberal media” for President Obama’s re-election.
Read moreKarl Rove's Terrible 2012 Election
Craig Ungar has an excellent article in Salon.com that explains why the second biggest loser Tuesday night was political mastermind and moneymaker Karl Rove. In short, Rove poured $400 million into the election and has little to show for it. Republicans lost the presidency and failed to gain the Senate.
Read moreGot Hypocrisy? Steve Doocy & Peter Johnson Jr. Say President Wages "Class Warfare!!"
The reelection of Barack Obama was less than 24 hours old; but that didn't stop Fox & Friends from trotting out their right wing talking points and baseless accusations against the president which were cleverly worked into a piece about American "coming together" - a concept made laughable by the ongoing attempts of Fox News to divide this country along racial, ethnic, religious, and economic lines while accusing those that they attack of being divisive. This was demonstrated on yesterday's Fox & Friends where Roger Ailes' personal attorney, litigator for the NY Archdiocese and Knight Of Malta Peter Johnson Jr. and Roger Ailes' "attack poodle" Steve Doocy did exactly that in yet another example of how Fox & Friends is "the morning happy-talk show that Ailes uses as one of his primary vehicles to inject his venom into the media bloodstream."

From wrong-headed predictions to "liberal-media bias" whining, The Daily Show nailed BMN (Bull**** Mountain News) aka Fox News coverage of the election. Plus, a hilarious imitation of Dick Morris!
Read moreBehind-The-Scenes Of Karl Rove's Hissy Fit Over Fox's Ohio Call
Gabriel Sherman has an interesting article about what went on behind the scenes last night when Karl Rove had a hissy fit over Fox News calling Ohio and the presidency for Barack Obama. It not only reveals how Fox adjudicated a dispute between a partisan operative and what appeared to be a legitimate news operation but also just how much partisan operating Karl Rove did during what was supposed to be neutral election coverage - and despite the fact that he is usually presented with the bland description of "political contributor" or "political analyst."

Neil Cavuto went on Don Imus' Fox Business show this morning and defended Fox pundits' wildly incorrect predictions about the 2012 election, including Dick Morris'. Imus asked, "Why should I ever believe... anything Karl Rove or Dick Morris or Newt Gingrich or Laura Ingraham or any of those morons have to say?"
