Besides his insane comments, I have one question. Does Elizabeth practice that look in front of a mirror??
debranded it as all-white? that’s driving Muslim teens away?
I think our problem is that G.W. Bush debranded us as a moral beacon in the world. it’s not clear that America stands for much more than capitalism to most countries any more. (ok, maybe Hollywood too. violence and testosterone?)
How much harm does Ablow do to his patients?
“FOX Psychiatrist”
I don’t know whether to call it an oxymoron or just moron.
That guy really needs some psychiatric help.
This guy missed his calling—he should be playing crazy obsessive super-villains in the movies. He wouldn’t need any help from the makeup department or the screenwriters either—he’s got it all.
I think that when I tire of working for a living, I’m going to find a street corner somewhere, spout the most insane shit I can think of, and hope that some Fox drone (the “human,” non-airborne type) hears me, and they offer me a job as an expert commentator. Maybe I’ll have to tell them I’m a doctor (or play one on the street corner), to give me more “legitimacy.”
I swear, Rupert Murdoch and Roger Ailes have proved themselves to be in the top five of America-destroyers.
He isn’t a clinical psychologist. Rather, he’s a criminal psychologist…which means that any law enforcement office dumb enough to use him risks destroying their cases.
Besides, this is the idiot who believes that we should put homosexuality back into the DSM and that trans people are psychotic or some other rubbish.
Amidst the crazy, a grain of truth. There was, in fact, a recent president who “took away the notion of what it meant to be American, for some number of people, [who took away a part of them, a sense of patriotism, forward momentum[.]” It wasn’t Barack Obama.
I remember experiencing precisely that feeling between 2002 and 2006 as those who set aside their misgivings and supported the president in a time of crisis were betrayed again and again by an Administration that wiped its ass with our nation’s ideals, started a war based on a fake causus belli and used a foreign threat as a political theater cudgel.
Of course, I didn’t join ISIS as a result.
I couldn’t understand what he was saying, because I don’t speak word salad.
I kind of wonder what this quack’s analysis of Michelle Bachmann would be… Would he go the “she’s even crazier than I am” route? Or would he justify her deranged rantings and then proceed to somehow blame it on Obama somehow?
So Keith, what of the British teens who joined ISIS ? What about teens from other western countries who joined ISIS ? Are you saying the leaders of those countries de-branded them ?
Stupid comment.
“Think about crystal methamphetamine. The folks who use that are focused. They buy it, some of them make it. It isn’t easy. It’s dangerous,” he said. “It fills them up. It answers really tough nagging questions they have about whether life is worth living.”
I have to admit, I ask that question every time Dr. Ablow appears on the screen.
Hasselbeck always looks like Mommy didn’t get her the Barbie Dream House she wanted for Christmas.
Or maybe Keith Ablow just farted. It’s hard to tell.
Is he ever let out of the Fox Compound long enough for a reasonable person to ask him what the hell he means by “de-branded”?
No, I’m pretty sure American conservatives and American conservative media have far more to do with young Muslims feeling isolated than anything Obama has ever done or could do.
Either way don’t send you kids to Tufts University, if they are keeping this specimen means that they all are of the same kind.
De-brand the US?? WTF??
America isn’t a brand like Walmart or Ford Motor Company fer Crissakes, Ablow! A nation ISN’T A BUSINESS. Several Arizona governors have tried that tactic and its blown up in their faces.
Obama changed the font family and scaled back the use of Pantone 485 on official letterheads. And now the kids are joining ISIS en masse! Haaaaaaaalp!
