fox and friends and ridicule…what’s that word?

Just saw the above episode and Stephen was very sharp (even though he lost it a couple of times). For me, the puncturing of the unctuous clod Kyl was a highlight, pointing out once again that the ‘Licans never let facts get in the way of a nice patch of demagoguery.

Should Mediaite readers take note that Frances Martel got to cover the much more talented Stewart while Colby Hall got stuck with the played-out Colbert?

Gilding the lily? Beating a dead horse? Pointing out the obvious?

Finally something that’s actually funny from Colbert. Now I ‘d just like to see him DO Chis Matthews. I’m not talking about picking on him. No, JUST DOING HIM. It’d do them both some good.

They should literally change the name from “Fox & Friends” to Fox & No Facts. That’s exactly how it is on the show. They basically spend 3 hours on a couch with Bert and Ernie, and the dumb blond in the middle acting like they know everything and have a solution to every problem, and just blather on and on pushing their far-right agenda while lying with no disregard for the truth. And they wonder why SNL mocks them… because they’re a f*cking joke.

It’s especially interesting to see how much they obsess over stories about Muslims and terrorism. They act like little school girls fear mongering about it all the time. What a way to wake up in the mornings that must be. It only makes you feel bad for the gullible viewers who watch getting even more dumbed down.

You do know that President Obama attended a madrasas? It was a hu-u-u-u-u-u-u-u-u-u-ge story, and only FOX & Friends covered it.

Is F & F the new Liberal media villain?
Mr. Brock, release the hounds…

You’re a regular modern day Pompous Pilot. Fitting during this Easter season. Thankfully you only betray yourself.

There in lies your problem….’ you were thinking ‘……..I guess you’ve already forgotten what happen the last time.

I bet if the FNC crew was supporting late term abortions at Walgreens Colbert would be supporting them.

if fox news promoted hugging your child colbert would find a way to criticize that, too. yawn. who cares what colbert says?

The only thing worse than “Fox and Fiends” bias spin is the teas claiming “no bias spin”!

woops…aisle

I just love how the far right wing loonies have absolutely no shame in their game. They do not care that their lies are so egregious as to just simply be funny as hell! Watching Republicans become the laughing stock of this country is immensely entertaining. You have become such caricatures of yourselves that this show absolutely must go on!

Please continue the bald face lies. Please continue to have your crazy folks talk about the birther issue! Please continue to trot out the likes of Sarah Palin, Rush Limbag, Glen Beck, Michele Bachman, Newt Gingrich, Mike Humpabee… oh God, need i go on? You have turned your party into a complete side-show. And I, for one, would like to thank you in advance for giving the country a second term of Barak Obama. It’s going to take him 8 years to fix the mountain of crap left behind by your party. Thank you!!

Colby Hall said:
Oh no — skoorbekim is on to us!

if that’s the case, who draws the short straw in palin or bachmann stories?

Colby writes: “Colbert opens with rather stunning footage of Sen. Kyl falsely proclaiming on the Senate floor that 90% of Planned Parenthood goes towards the cost of performing actual abortions (when the real figure is 3%.)”

Colby, I guess you skipped that Cost Accounting class in college…huh?

and this has what to do with the post? And there is not one thing that is incorrect that Cobert said.

Republicans and Fox News lies.

Truth needs no originality…but lies are certainly not limited to Republicans. All politicians lie, it’s how the game is played. Wake up people, you’re getting lied to all the time…whether it’s an elephant or a jackass, there are no boundries

Foxs and Friends doesn’t need much help to look like the highest rated bit of “stupid” in morning TV, but Colbert out did himself with this one.

Who watches those F&F anyway? They seem naive and stupid.

Oh, and maybe you missed the part where Kyl’s people backtracked and said “it was not intended to be a factual statement”.

You’re the one who made a flippant comment with NOTHING to back it up. Here’s how you make a comment with teeth:

Planned Parenthood’s top two “services” are Family Planning and STD treatement/screening, each making up about 35% (total of 70%) of PPs services

http://jonathanturley.files.wordpress.com/2011/04/plannedparenthood.jpg

The REAL figure is ~3% of their services go to providing abortions. NONE of that 3% can be done with any federal dollars.

Well, gotta start that daily mantra/indoctrination somehow. Dumb, Dumber and Dumberest is the FNC approach.

Walgreens. Didn’t he really mean Wal-Mart? ;)

Fox & Friends make Beck seem smart. My personal favorites include: the Taliban were training monkeys to use weapons and the city of LA paid 1 billion for jet packs for the LA police department.

If you were to choose between Bill O’Reilly or Chris Matthews for a mock character in which to lampoon, the obvious choice would be Chris Matthews, as the jokes would write themselves. But then there’s that whole thing about Liberals rarely if ever mocking Liberals.

…………………………………….
The only reason Fox and Fiends covered the hu-u-u-u-ge story was because of their bias and unhealthy need to bury Obama! The reason no other network covered the story was because it wasn’t true! It was a ” tea lie”! I know you live in the new bubble, but I think you knew this already!

Racistsaywhat? For the same reason you or I aren’t called by our middle name silly. I didn’t use his last name either, no questioning of that though.

i think it was darrel hammon who did a great chris matthews on snl. that’s the reason i started watching hardball, i didn’t think someone could be that crazy but i was wrong.

Well, naturally one would choose Tingles due to humor.

OReally isn’t funny at all. He’s a d*ck.

If one is looking to make money, the easy choice is Matthews for so many reasons (his laugh, his craziness). With BillO, you are left with “falafel”, “pinhead” and some angry dude a la “Inside Edition” footage.

Well, that’s a fatuous load of content-free bull. I see you’re keeping up your standards.

Is he talking about the “pilot” of the Airbus A-380 that took out the commuter jet while taxiing to the runway?

Oh, I forgot,there’s a 24 hour Walgreens near my house, so I’m going to go hang out by the discount eyeglass rack and sneek a peek at the “breast exams.”

All across the nation, pimply-faced teenaged Walgreens stock clerks experienced a shared epiphany when FOX and Friends blurted their nonsense about “breast exams and pap smears” being provided by this drug store chain.

Watch for the following promotion scrawled on cardboard signs in the front of the store: “Breast Exams provided here — See Billy on Aisle 5″.
