Heard of the game Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon, where people try to connect an actor with Kevin Bacon in six or fewer steps? It appears as if Fox News has been playing a condensed version of that game with regard to President Obama and Benghazi. I call it the Three Degrees of Benghazi. Here are just a few examples:
Starting point: "Syria may have used chemical weapons against its own people."
Fox News' next move: "Obama is looking very weak as a leader during this whole thing."
Fox News' closer: "He's obviously doing this so people forget about his weak leadership during Benghazi!"
Starting point: "A shooting rampage occurred in Washington, D.C. earlier today."
Fox News' next move: "At last check, 12 people were killed."
Fox News' closer: "That is only eight more than were killed in the most brutal attack on American non-American soil - Benghazi!"
Starting point: "It's another record-breaking day heat wise across the nation today."
Fox News' next move: "Obama's talking about global warming again."
Fox News' closer: "If he thinks global warming is hot, that's nowhere near as hot as the seat he'll be on when reporters are asking him about Benghazi!"
Starting point: "Obamacare is about to be fully implemented."
Fox News' next move: "You know what that means? Free safe sex for everyone!"
Fox News' closer: "Speaking of penetration - Benghazi - and the way that attack penetrated our hearts."
Starting point: "There's President Obama greeting the Super Bowl Champion Baltimore Ravens yesterday."
Fox News' next move: "They all look so happy, but chances are there are some Ravens who aren't very happy with the president right now."
Fox News' closer: "That's right, and do you know why? The Ravens are from Baltimore. The first letter of Baltimore is 'B,' just like Benghazi."
...and so it goes... I swear, if people played the Benghazi drinking game while watching Fox News, where every time a person on Fox uttered the word Benghazi, he or she had to do a shot, everyone would be passed out within 5 minutes.
