The Kind-Hearted Smart Aleck

During an interview on Fox & Friends , conservative commentator and professional Barbie impersonator - Tomi Lahren - had this to say with regard to the NFL protests: "I would like to ask these players 'What exactly are you kneeling for and why have you chosen the flag and the anthem to do it?' I bet if we asked a hundred players, we would get a hundred different answers. And then further more, I would like to ask those same players, 'What would it take to get you to stand and respect the anthem?' And again you'd probably get a hundred different answers, if you'd get an answer at all." Tomi Lahren is probably right. There are likely multiple different reasons why these NFL players are either sitting or kneeling during the pre-game National Anthem. There probably isn't a universal reason why each and every one of these players feel prompted to protest. However, in saying that, Ms. Lahren is unintentionally admitting that these protesters are ...

I was beginning to wonder where former Trump spokeswoman Katrina Pierson had gone. Shortly after she began speaking to Fox News's Ainsley Earhardt and Wendy Osefo on Fox & Friends  this morning, I remembered why she was likely replaced in the first place. Here's part of their back-and-forth: Pierson: "It (slavery) absolutely deserves a place, because bad history is still good history for this country --" Osefo: "Slavery is good history?" Pierson: "--considering where we are today, where we are today. Absolutely." Osefo: "Slavery is good history? Absolutely. Oh, wow." Pierson: "During those times, during those times -- think about this for a second. Where would we be today if not for that Civil War? How would our children even know --" Osefo: "Where would we be without slavery? Are you serious? Do you hear what you're saying?" Pierson: "How would our children even know how special and how wond...

For the second consecutive year, there's been a lot of talk about the lack of minority nominees at the Oscars. On a recent episode of Fox & Friends , Clueless  actress and Fox News contributor, Stacey Dash, had this to say about the controversy and calls for boycott: "I think it's ludicrous, because we have to make up our minds. Either we want to have segregation or integration. If we don't want segregation, then we need to get rid of channels like BET and the BET Awards and the Image Awards, where you're only awarded if you're black. If it were the otherw ay around, we would be up in arms. It's a double standard." Donald Trump later appeared on the show and had this to say about the matter: "I saw somebody on your show today say, 'Well, what do we do with BET? The whites don't get any nominations, and I thought it was an amazing interview, actually I've never even thought of it from that standpoint. I mean, I've watched ...

For as much as they discuss and scapegoat the movement on their show, it came as no surprise to anyone with half a brain for Fox & Friends  co-hosts Steve Doocy, Elisabeth Hasselbeck, and Brian Kilmeade to introduce the new game "The Six Degrees of Black Lives Matter" on their show yesterday. Doocy started the show off by saying, "As my lovely co-host Elisabeth recently pointed out, Black Lives Matter is definitely a hate group. They may have formed after unarmed black people were killed by cops or Fox News superhero George Zimmerman, but the fact remains they took the mic away from Bernie Sanders at a rally and said a really nasty chant toward cops in Minnesota which resulted in no one getting hurt, and I think that's evidence enough to prove they're a hate group. But just how evil are they? Elisabeth, Brian, and I were talking earlier, and we've all concluded that no matter what the random topic of evil, we'd be able to connect it to Black Lives M...

On Fox & Friends yesterday, Fox News health expert and man who thinks health is the opposite of heaven - David Samadi - said this with regard to his belief that men shouldn't pay as much as women for health insurance: "We only have the prostate. Women have the breasts, the ovaries, the uterus, they get checked in every part. Look, it's not bias, I'm not saying this as a man. [Women] go through a lot of preventive screenings, they give birth, they have the whole mammogram, the Pap smear. Guys, we don't like to go to the doctors, right?" Mr. Samadi is quite the expert indeed. "We only have the prostate. Women have the breasts, the ovaries, the uterus..." Yet, a fairly recent study shows that men are 1.5 to 2 times more likely to die from cancer than women. While there's approximately a 1 in 2 chance that men will develop cancer at least once in their lives, there's a 1 in 3 chance for women. So, as you were saying, Fox News health ...
