More misogyny from Faux News

They say something stupid, piss people off and then act surprised when people are pissed off. You'd figure any sensible media outlet would stop digging now that they're in that hole, right? Not these guys; they just keep on fucking digging.

Quote:In other words, surrendering to your femininity means to put down your sword. It’s okay if your guy’s in charge. It’s okay if you don’t drive the car.
In fact, it’s rather liberating.
I've been saying this for a while. Women subconsciously want a man to rule over them, and once you realize this and surrender to that desire, both genders will be much better off. Mother nature has designed you to be submissive, and understanding your true nature means understanding that you need a man to rule over you. So, ladies, put down the sword, and get back in the kitchen. You'll find that not having to worry about all of that man stuff is liberating!

I think people are taking them way too seriously. When you approach FoxNews in the right way, they're funnier than the Onion.

I would be laughing my ass off except for the fact that many people take them and their reporting seriously.

Meh. I turned on Fox News the other night. It was Hannity interviewing a couple Republicans whining about being ousted from some party function by Boehner and the party elite. It was a touching story, filled with conspiracy, treachery, lies, and destroyed documents. I threw up in my mouth a little and changed the channel.

I read that story, actually. Turns out, Boehner is trying to put more distance between the base of the Republican party and the Tea Party extremists. Kinda cool that Boehner might actually be learning a lesson or two from this last election, but if the voters don't take heart, it won't really matter. As long as the Republican voters keep nominating far right whack jobs like Santorum or Bachmann, they don't stand a chance of winning the presidency. Even if they don't nominate far right lunatics but the rest of the party is populated by them it taints their candidates party label (which is exactly what happened with Romney).

Man. This always happens to me. I turn on an MSNBC show on politics, the first news show since the other night, and it's about those same Tea Party whiners. Merde!
