Didn’t you just know that it was only a matter of time until someone on Fox News made the White House fence jumping breach of security about Benghazi? Today’s (dis)honors go to Outnumbered host Harris Faulkner.
Yesterday, I posted about Fox blaming President Obama for the breach of security at the White House. Today, Faulkner seemed to be teeing up that meme again, with a little Benghazi for extra Fox News talking-points credit.
In discussing the fence jumping incident, Faulkner said to co-host Andrea Tantaros:
So Andrea, I couldn’t help but let my mind just flow to something else. Another asset that we didn’t protect—the U.S. outpost in Benghazi, Libya. I don’t want to say that this is a trend, but smells like it.
Tantaros for some reason, didn’t want to go there, at least not in the clip below. She said, “Well, I think you bring up a great point about it being a lesson learned.”
A little later, Tantaros said, “Harris, don’t you think it’s a little odd, during this administration, the Secret Service has been showing up in the press a little more than most elite law enforcement officers should.” She cited the Colombia prostitution scandal and the phony translator at Nelson Mandela’s funeral. Faulkner helpfully chipped in with the Salahis. “Also at the White House,” Faulkner added.
“I think the Secret Service needs to get is act together a little better,” Tantaros concluded. This could have been another set up to blame Obama for not overseeing the Secret Service better but the video below, via Media Matters ends there.
I’ll try to check my own recording later.
Did ah be yo’ bestest lil’ piccaninny, Massa Ailes? Shall ah sit on yo’ knee now?
Sistah Harris and the rest of these broads are following orders from the suits. The predominantly male executive suits want to wrap Benghazi around the necks of the Democrats. Their evil schemes will get worse as we approach the November elections.
Oh, good grief, Faulkner. Get a grip – you’re making an ass of yourself.
The FOXies shriek “Benghazi” so much that I’m starting to wonder if they each get a bonus ($) from Ailes every time they manage to work it into the conversation (no matter how bizarre or disconnected the attempt happens to be). It would be hysterical if it weren’t so pitiful and desperate.
