Another one of those Fair and Balanced interviews.

What is Kelly’s job title? Clearly it’s not journalist.

“You’re defense in this case was not, ‘I didn’t do it,’” Kelly said. “It was, 'I didn’t do it with any intent, I didn’t do it with the right requisite state of mind…”

Well, Mr. D’Souza, if you didn’t do it with the required Mens Rea, then why in the Hell did you plead guilty? After all, Mens Rea is required to prove guilt in a criminal case to which you pled guilty. You have to have intended to cause the harm to an individual or to society just for the case to be considered criminal under the wording of the part of the statute to which you, Mr. D’Souza, pled guilty. Before the judge, Mr. D’Souza, you flatly admitted your criminality and your intent of create a criminal act. Ergo, you must have had the required Mens Rea for the judge to accept your guilty plea. The government actually let you off easy. They COULD HAVE charged you with criminal conspiracy, since we all now know, by your own admission to Ms. Kelly that you plotted this illegality with 2 other people. That makes it a conspiracy. And Criminal Conspiracy, my dear Ms. Kelly and Mr. D’Souza, carries a much stiffer sentence than either of the other two charges that you, Mr. D’Souza. faced.

Ms. Kelly, you might want to bone up on criminal procedure and criminal law before you go making yourself look like the stereotypical “dumb blonde.” I realize that Roger Ailes and Rupert Murdoch require you to follow their script. I also realize that all of your fellow clowns in the clown car do follow the script demanded by Messrs. Ailes and Murdoch and invariably act out their mandated parts in the clown car. However, it seems to me that your attorney left out a significant clause in your contract with Faux News when she/he didn’t put in a proviso allowing you to deviate from script when complying with the script made you look like a total ass.

I agree 100% and really wish I were the judge. Hard time in prison for a year or two for him would be just fine with me.

25

It’s just a courtesy title, with no actual meaning.

I’d tell you—but my account would be suspended if I did.

Megyn gives D’Loser an on-air journalistic handy. Who enjoyed it more?

D’Felon isn’t the brightest bulb in the trolldelier. His pre-sentence investigation hasn’t been done yet. Trashing the case and the prosecution before sentencing is not the smart thing to do. His public statements can be used against him at the time of sentencing.

Fox News, the place where convicted felons go to get softball interviews, if the convicted felon shares the political agenda of Fox News.

Faux Blonde Decoration?

I’d like to see Megyn Kelly do more of these soft-ball interviews with admitted felons, perhaps from inside a super-max prison somewhere, and one where people simply forget that she’s in there doing interviews with felons, and neglect to let her out for a few days.

Civil Libertarian is defined as a convicted conservative facing jail time. Suddenly they want to veer away from “don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time.”

At least this guy won’t ever be allowed to own a gun again in his life.

“And so now, this case is resolved, for today, and the Obama administration gets to call one of its top critics a convicted felon…”

Can’t wait for the next D’Souza case. The previous one was when the conservative Christian King’s College got to call the adulterous D’Souza its resigned-in-disgrace ex-president.

As for “Top Critic” D’Souza, I’m guessing Obama is asking “um, Dinesh what? Now which one is that again?”

Fox Not Really News: Where the sets are like the blond airheads and the carpet doesn’t match the drapes

37

Ignorance of one’s own intent is no excuse.
And BTW…pink on pink. Give the preppy thing a rest Dinesh. It’s not 1985 and you are no longer in Hanover.

Man, where have you been? Nobody has carpet these days…

D’Felon is the type who read “Preppy Handbook” as a how-to guide and not as satire.

Fox is like its viewers. Totally behind the times. Avocado green shag is considered the epitome of style.
