My Other Friend Bob
0
Fox News hit it out of the crazy park. I don’t watch Fox News unless my friends are on, so maybe this is just normal for them.
My friend El Jefe Bob went on Fox News last night to try to explain the blowout in the Gulf of Mexico to folks who don’t live in oil producing states.
After his interviewer’s eyes glazed over so badly that the shows’ producer went to Full Screen Bob mode, that was only the beginning.
Watch this sucker for the last question. You will not be sorry.
God loves Bob for not saying, “No, Sweetie, I do not think it was a terrorist with a bomb in his shoe. That would be nuts and that’s why they should not give you a microphone to scare people.”
Amazing. Just amazing. The dumb meter just exploded.
1Left a note for your friend, was an excellent explanation, to much info for the poor girl to absorb.
she was looking for the terrorist angle and did not get it. I’m sure fox will just ask rush, he knows all about these things!
Do you realize how they dumb down fox news?
2It takes an interview like this to remind us how poor fox news really is!
You don’t need to ask Rush, he’s way ahead of you.

3Do they clone these female “anchors”? She looked like Megyn to me …
4Am I old or is he hot? Or both?
5The whole time Bob is talking, all I could think about was that Don Henley song:
We got the bubbleheaded bleach-blonde, comes on at 5
6She can tell you about the plane crash with a gleam in her eye
It’s interesting when people die, give us dirty laundry.
You’re not old.
(All my friends are hot, Ellen. You know that.)
7For myself, I have always found men of intellect hot! They generally have highly developed senses of humor (VERY important) and they recognize complete sentences AND the importance of using them – diction and pronunciation -vocabulary, for crying out loud!…to wit, Bill Clinton was very successful with females (he’s dangerous! I think he could make you feel like you were the only woman in the room! or the building! or on earth!) and I find myself smiling in a very besotted fashion as I drive down the highway listening to our Prez speak whenever quoted on NPR. Kinda like the swooning over Bing Crosby’s crooning, siiiigh.
Of course, having W-dip as a foil hasn’t hurt him at all, like a two-bit ventriloquist act (I like that! Cheney with his Shrub-puppet! heh-heh-heh SHUDDER! ) before the REAL show!
What I DON’T get is the relative success of Ensigns and Livingstons and Sanfords and Newt Gingrich and RUSH?!, etc. Do they appeal to stupid women? I have never particularly cared for the early-Christian-televangelist look, either…
