FOX News has been ginning up a story about the hate group the "New Black Panthers" from the election on November 4th as some sort of 'angry black man' intimidation tactic that made Obama win the presidency. I covered that story and it was thoroughly debunked. Just watch the obvious middle aged teabagger woman asking Rep. Brad Sherman if Eric Holder is refusing to prosecute black people in the country over white people.

Woman:...and the latest news that the DOJ's new policy is that they are not going to prosecute cases with black defendants where the plaintiffs are white?

Shouldn't Kelly be upset by the woman who asked this question? It's so insane, but no...she's an obvious FOX watcher and gets her opinions from FOX and talk radio. So they attack Sherman. FOX is actively creating hate based on race in our country again and this clip is a great illustration of that point except instead of using code words, they are screaming about it on our airwaves.

This exchange between Megyn Kelly and the conservative Democrat pundit, Kirsten Powers is a prime example of their bias. Look how outraged Kelly is at Kirsten for disagreeing with her basic premise. Did somebody get murdered at the PA. polling station? Oh, right. A couple of black guys are scaring FOX Nation.

Kelly: We have a DOJ whistleblower alleging there is a discriminatory policy at the DOJ voting rights section and no one seems to give a darn.

Powers: Well, I’m sorry you can actually put me in the same category of people who don’t really give a darn because I looked at the video. The guy wasn’t really intimidating people. They were walking past him and voting so I don’t really understand how he’s being intimidated. Second of all, what the Congressman should have said..

Kelly: With respect — you don’t seem to know what you are talking about.

Powers: Well, I think I do, Megyn.

Kelly: Well, I don't think you do. Unlike you Kirsten, I have read the testimony that was given before the U.S. commission. Have you?

Powers: The Department of Justice has gotten an injunction against them. What more do you want them to do?

Kelly: Have you read the testimony?

Powers: I talked to the Department of Justice at length about this.

Kelly: Have you read the testimony?

Powers: Megyn, it doesn’t matter, they got an injunction against him.

Kelly: No you haven't

Powers: No! but they got

You don’t know what you are talking about. you clearly don't know what you're talking about.

Powers: Yes I do.

Kelly: You cannot debate.

(crosstalk)

Powers: Megyn, why won't you won’t answer my question?

Kelly: What's your question?

Powers: I do care. They GOT an injunction against him. What more do you want them to do?

Kelly: I'll tell you. I'll tell you, because you clearly don't know the facts of this case.

I actually do know..

Kelly: Let me finish!

Megyn goes on to outline the case against another name FOX loves to repeat: Shabazz...continuing fight..

Kelly: So Don't tell me that they did all they could and don't tell me...

Powers: Megyn, I'm curious to know if you were just as outraged when the Bush administration downgraded all their investigations?

Kelly: Sorry?

Powers: Were you?

Kelly: Oh, back to Bush...

Powers: Were you upset and outraged by the discrimination there when they weren't pursuing cases?

Kelly: Yes! (Sure Megyn, you just expressed them to yourself in a tiny cafe in Soho drinking a latte)

More fighting...

Kelly: Unlike you, I have read the testimony...

Powers: I didn't say it wasn't voter intimidation, you're putting words in my mouth.

Kelly: let 'em finish.

Powers: You're putting words in my mouth. I didn't say it wasn't voter intimidation.

Kelly: Don't make me cut your mic. Don't make me cut your mic.

Powers: Go ahead and cut my mic...

They kept fighting from there until Megyn threatens to cut off Kirsten's mic. The whistle blower in this case is a right wing loon activist named J. Christian Adams that was still working for the DOJ and as the evidence explains, he's a typical movement conservative hack that is causing this country so much harm.

Sally Quinn went on The O'Reilly Factor to announce that she and all the other Villagers are just all a-flutter over the Obama White House's puzzling decision to stand up to its an organization that clearly declared war on his administration from its outset, i.e., Fox News.

But first she had to stop and sniff disdainfully in the direction of Alan Grayson for his gauche style of political rhetoric:

O'Reilly: Do you know this guy? He sounds like a loon.

Quinn: I don't know him. But guess what? Here we are talking about him. And I think that's what this is all about -- he's obviously getting the attention she desperately needs.

O'Reilly: OK, there could be something to be said for that. He represents the Orlando area. But he's certainly kind of unhinged. When you hear rhetoric like that -- you know, the Dick Cheney shooting the guy in the face, and this and that -- doesn't it sound a little immature?

Quinn: Well, I think that it's worse than immature. I mean, what he said was so completely over the top that it sounds like -- it reminded me a little bit of Blagojevich, you know. I mean --

O'Reilly: No, that's good. That's a good -- yeah. Kinda unhinged.

Quinn: Yeah, unhinged. It made no sense. So I don't think you can take it seriously. And I also think that if he -- I can't imagine the Democrats feeling good about this. Or the White House feeling good.

O'Reilly: Or his constituents.

Quinn: But you don't want this guy on your team.

Heavens no. We want people like Sally Quinn. The kind of Village maven who would go on 60 Minutes and slag the Clintons:

"If you consider the life of Bill Clinton," she said on "60 Minutes," "whenever he leaves the White House, he's going to get on a plane, and where is he going to go?"

"What do you mean?" a baffled Mike Wallace asked.

"Well, he -- he doesn't even have a home," she sniffed. "I mean, when you think about it, he's homeless. I mean, they've lived in sort of government properties all their lives."

The kind of "social adviser" who would pen long Washington Post op-eds bemoaning the way the Clintons "fouled the nest".

Yeah, we need advice from Sally Quinn, all right.

And that commentary we should take seriously? I guess you just had to tune in three hours beforehand for that.

Oliver came up with the audio: "Again putting the liberal media meme to death, right-wing loon Ann Coulter explains to fellow winger Brent Bozell on the 7/26 Sean Hannity Show that Bush should appoint a more extreme Judge than Roberts to the Supreme Court because “we have the media now”
