Unspeakably vile.

But I must ask: Are all the Jews killed by the Crusaders on their way to kill Moslems among the ones to whom Obama should apologize?

In his remarks, the president condemned the official anti-Semitism of foreign governments such as Iran.“And that includes confronting a rising tide of anti-Semitism around the world. We’ve seen attacks on Jews in the streets of major Western cities, public places marred by swastikas. From some foreign governments we hear the worst kinds of anti-Semitic scapegoating. In Ukraine, as Steven mentioned, we saw those disgusting pamphlets from masked men calling on Jews to register. And tragically, we saw a shooting here at home, in Overland Park in Kansas.

“And it would be tempting to dismiss these as isolated incidents, but if the memories of the Shoah survivors teach us anything, it is that silence is evil’s greatest co-conspirator. And it’s up to us — each of us, every one of us — to forcefully condemn any denial of the Holocaust. It’s up to us to combat not only anti-Semitism, but racism and bigotry and intolerance in all their forms, here and around the world. It’s up to us to speak out against rhetoric that threatens the existence of a Jewish homeland and to sustain America’s unshakeable commitment to Israel’s security.

Dear everyone who works for Fox, and helps to spread this disgusting chatter:

If there is a heaven, you ain’t heading there. Your sins will not be forgiven.

There are about 350 million people in America. Fox ‘News’ Channel’s most popular program draws ~2 million old, white and unemployed male viewers sitting around the house all day screaming at the TV.

2 million viewers out of 350 million- less than 0.5% of America’s population.

So who cares what Fox or their audience is babbling on about??? They are not a responsible news organization with journalists- they’re an entertainment factory whose ‘hosts’ are paid to spew utter nonsense and every time we click on a story and shake our heads in dismay we’re renewing their contracts.

Why lend them any credence whatsoever, beyond their major accomplishment of providing late-night TV comedian fodder…their frothing inanity and manufactured outrage should be met with either stony silence or howls of derisive laughter.

We need to stop paying them any notice whatsoever.

Oh, piffle. That was so many years ago we shouldn’t ever refer to it, as one commenter (who will not be named) keeps lecturing everyone at TPM about.

Excuse me, Dana. There you go making up stories again. Telling the truth or characterizing the President’s remarks accurately is simply impossible for anyone at FOX.

Fox News is just simply ridiculous, over-the-top hyperbole masquerading as news. What’s ironic is that Fox viewers still think they’re watching “fair and balanced” information. It’s just awful.

This panel made up of the most vapid of the Faux talkers meant to say that the president should apologize to everyone within the sound of his voice for what he has done in the last six years and what he’s going to do in the next 700 or so days.

Faux News are now Jew-baiting trolls. I would have thought their resume of scum-iness was already full.

Exactly, she should apologize to the families who lost loved ones in a war she and the Bush administration lied us into.

Has anyone else noticed that the kind of speech that’s featured on Fox these days is wayyy over the top? It appears as though they’re prepping their pseudo hosts and guests on how to up the ante each time they open their mouths: “Obama committed verbal rape” and Perino’s “he owes the Jews an apology” being just the latest examples.

It’s just coarse, is what I’m trying to say.

“Coarse” is mild. It’s hate speech.
