Seems like Todd didn’t get the FOX position memo stressing that Jeb is the man. Megyn appears to be the winner at the “debate”.

Jey-sus… even this weak sauce attack on Kelly is dishonest. Kelly’s question to Kasich was not “would he love his daughter”. They can’t even get their shit straight when they are attacking each other.

Comedy.

This is a perfectly transparent picture of Fox. Political advocates present reality through the lens of their particular conservative interest group. They call this journalism. They call themselves journalists. Or do they? FOX supports its cadre of sophisticated poseurs, operating within the business, financial, marketing, and regulatory structures to advance interests that trump the powers of a representative government, such a quaint idea in these times.

Because he plays a vital role on the far right:
He makes Hannity seem sane by comparison;
He makes Lindsay Graham seem masculine;
He makes Huckabee seem rational;
And he makes Christie seem physically fit.

Being “leader of the free world” is not just about policy stances, it’s also about the quality of one’s character.
These so-called “ambush” questions are fair game, as they force Trump to justify his petty vindictiveness and puerile behavior.

Wow.
Talk about being between a rock and a hard place!
If the only choices are either siding with Starnes or Kelly, I choose death.

Well of any woman who isn’t happy with meeting him at his front door with his slippers in one hand and a martini in the other.

Kelly and weasel boy Starnes ought to get their tweets on and have a full blown 140 character hoe-down.

Starnes is a trifle confused – the questions were fine but the answers were disgusting.

Now, should I tag this with Outreach! or with GOP WOW?

He’s got a face for radio and a mind for crash test dummy.

Remarkable how deeply dishonest this Starnes character wants his president to be, without qualms.

Hold on a second. I thought it was “we report, you decide”. I thought they were just neutral arbiters presenting facts which allow their viewers to form their own independent judgments and opinions. Now I find out they’re conservative? That they have their fingers on the scale?

Apparently Todd Starnes doesn’t realize that he is disgusting.
