Apparently the folks at Fox News can find fault even with Olympic gold medal winners

This is batshit crazy… On last week’s “America Live,” guest-host Alisyn Camerota discussed how “some folks” noticed that the “famous flag-styled outfits” of Olympics past were replaced by “yellow shirts, grey track suits and pink leotards” at the London games. Camerota and her guest, Sirius/XM radio host David Webb, took particular focus on Douglas’ outfit.

Fox News Lives Down To All My Expectations

Everytime Rush Limbaugh says something stupid, the right wing echo chamber pulls out the bill maher card as if its even remotely relevant. I am not going to discuss how ridiculous that comparison is here but instead point out one of the best things that Bill Maher has done. That is introduce us to Astrophysicist [...]

Fox News vs The Netherlands

Wow… Just wow… Who watches this crap?

Paul Ryan’s Photo Op

H/T Democrumudgeon! Speaking of things that need to be shared, this definitely qualifies!

Paul Ryan (R – Wall St.) had his 42nd birthday and his many admirers at Fox “news” could not let the occasion go by without letting the congressman ( who used to live in Janesville) know how much they love him. [...]
