Fox News Civil War! Dick Morris Blasts âTeasesâ Chris Christie, Sarah Palin, Mike Huckabee and Donald Trump
Ordinarily, I donât put much credence in anything Dick Morris has to say but itâs rare for any Fox News pundit to attack another and in this case, Morris went after two of his colleagues, one regular guest and the darling of boss Roger Ailes, all in one shot.

Fox & Friends Decide Bill Clinton Didnât Really Mean It When He Supported Obamaâs Jobs Plan
Who needs a Democratic guest when youâve got Fox & Friends Republican clairvoyants to tell you what Democrats are really thinking? At least, that would seem to be the case as the curvy couch crew announced this morning that former president Bill Clinton was caught in a bad position yesterday when he was asked about President Obamaâs jobs plan and defended it out of obligation not sincerity. But speaking of sincerity, this was during an anniversary visit to Floridaâs The Villages that looked a lot more like an infomercial for one of their advertisers than a place Fox News producers happened to pick for its scenic or journalistic value. The happy talk included âspontaneouslyâ singing The Villageâs jingle.

Sean Hannity and Fox News billed its segment last night (3/16/11) with Reps. Anthony Weiner and Michele Bachmann as a debate about budget cuts but in reality, it was Hannity attacking Weiner and allowing Bachmann to pile on. Hannity didn't even try to hide his disdain as he mocked Weiner with childish insults I haven't heard since 7th grade. But Weiner did the right thing â by calling out the tactics in a joking way. It obviously threw Hannity off his bullyboy stride that Weiner was laughing instead of cowering or getting angry or frustated and, in my opinion, it just made Hannity's name calling look all the more childish. At the end, Weiner taunted, âMake it three on one next time. Make it three on one or four on one next time. I'm ready for ya... I love these balanced debates.â

Fox Promotes Hillary Clinton âBuddying Up To Hugo Chavezâ Meme
You really donât need to hear the discussion on Monday nightâs Great American Panel segment on Hannity (1/3/11) to get the Fox News meme about Hillary Clinton âbuddying up to Hugo Chavez.â Just looking at the graphic in the lower right-hand corner of the screen tells you everything the Fox News producers want you to know.
