Discussion: Fox News Liberal Bob Beckel Challenges Conservative Ambush Journalist To A Knife Fight (VIDEO)

Discussion for article #228632

who said that Mattera’s video was an ā€œinsultā€ to the legacy of the late right-wing provocateur Andrew Breitbart.

Say what?

and let’s let you and I discuss it 'cause you’re a coward, you’re a punk, you pick on people and you deserve to have your ass kicked. And I wanna do it, so get in touch with me."

ā€œAnd bring a knife, punk,ā€ Beckel added later.

Oh. That’s helpful.

Mattera’s acts were shameful enough and can be seen as a stupid move on it’s own. Beckel piling on with threats of violence shifts the topic away from what Mattera did and onto what an ass Beckel is being.
Just idiotic.

Remember, get in close, block his knife, and you have met ā€˜stab him’ haven’t you?

Alright, this is just ridiculous. I’m kind of really tired of the violent rhetoric coming from the Right. No wonder we have so many white racists and police officers shooting and killing people.

Bob Beckel is no liberal.

He’s as big a fraud as all the other FoxNews hosts.

ā€œLiberalā€ is the wrong term for an aged pundit showing telltale signs of a brain tumor.

See, here’s the difference: Fox had to do a nation-wide talent search to find a ā€œliberalā€ who was as loathsome and boorish as this guy. Yet you can’t swing a dead cat around the Fox studio and without hitting a loathsome and boorish conservative. Go figure.

Breitbart left a legacy? A ā€œLiberalā€ defending that legacy? Next thing you know, one of these Breitbart/O’Keefe inspired hacks will be defending what he does as ā€œeffective journalismā€.

ā€œIn October 2011, Beckel nearly choked to death on a piece of shrimp at a Fox News reception, but was saved by Fox News chief Roger Ailes and The Five co-host Eric Bolling.ā€

Close call. They would have had difficulty replacing a ā€œliberalā€ of that quality,

Hey Greg Gutfeld! You’re a coward and Punk, What Beckle said!

Ever heard the saying ā€œBringing a knife to a gunfight?ā€ Beckel would bring a gun to a knife fight.

Supposedly this is FOX’s token liberal. There must be something in the water in that building.

And, by the way, in a knife fight you don’t want to get in close and stab. That just gives your opponent the opportunity to stab you. Instead you want to keep your distance and cut as often as possible; bleed your opponent until they are too weak to fight back.

According to F. Braun McAsh, whose discussion it really depends on the kind of knife. Knife fights aren’t really how they look on TV. Most knives are actually designed for stabbing not slashing. I made a study of weapons for a while. Helps while writing. If you have, say, a stiletto, you want to get in close and stab while pushing your opponent’s arm and knife away. If you have something like a Bowie Knife, that’s more slashing, so you want to move back. I may be misremembering some of that, but that’s kind of the gist.

It’s still idiotic to challenge people to knife fights.

Ok, this one is going into the funniest stories file, too.

…and bring a knife

…because I’m bringing a .45.

One phony macho psychopath challenges another phony macho psychopath to an illegal duel. The old men on Fox are really fuggin’ desperate to sound tough and manly, aren’t they?

The ladies do protest too much, methinks. Kinda makes you wonder which team they play for, dunnit?

Um, snarkus, they don’t play for my team. I’m sick of macho assholes being called gay as an insult.

Beckel’s job is to reaffirm by example the bad name Fox News imposes on ā€œliberalsā€ like it was Alan Colmes’ job to prove liberals are wimps.

Of course – leave it to Beckel to extol the virtuous example set by Brietbart. He’s a ā€œliberalā€ like I’m Peter Fucking Pan.

Now we’re talkin…

Come on TPM, we have had this conversation before. When you refere to Bob Beckel as the Pox Noise liberal, you need to put in quotation marks, in fact, as many as possible, like this: Pox’s ā€œā€"""""ā€œliberalā€"""""", Bob Beckel. That way we all know that you recognize that Bob can in no way be confused as an actual liberal. Please address this in future stories involving Pox Noise ā€œā€""""ā€œliberalā€""""" Bob Beckel. Thank you.
