Donuts And Politics

Maybe you watched Obama on June 3 give his speech at the end of all the primaries announcing he had secured the Democratic nomination in front of 18,000 people in St. Paul (with another 15,000 outside). Surely you saw the nice moment before his speech between him and his wife, and the moment she gave him the congratulatory fist-bump. Here is the photo:

Now I don’t know, some of you out there may watch Fox (I hesitate to call it a “news” channel), but their coverage is and has been quite biased for many years. Here is perhaps the best signal yet.

During the June 6 edition of Fox News’ America’s Pulse, host E.D. Hill teased an upcoming discussion by saying, “A fist bump? A pound? A terrorist fist jab? The gesture everyone seems to interpret differently.”

Seriously. Are you kidding me? She did not just say that. Its quite hard to believe that a tv anchor is so completely out of touch that she doesn’t know what a fist-bump is. I mean the only rational explanation is she is trying to associate hime with terroism. Barack HUSSEIN Obama–omg! Scary name! Terrorist! Seriously. FOX is ridiculous. She later apologized, saying:

 ”And I certainly didn’t mean to associate the word “terrorist” in any way to Senator Obama and his wife.”

WHAT? Excuse me, that’s EXCATLY what you did! Stunningly, she lost her show and FOX actually moved her elsewhere. I thought people at that network usually got raises for saying things like that. She got replaced by Laura Ingrahm, a nutty radio host and a very bitter, unpleasant women.
