A Question for Fox News - Update: Beckel Calls Right Wing Bloggers ‘Crackers’

I just fired up Eye TV to see what’s going on, and there’s Bob Beckel on Fox News.

Something is seriously wrong at Fox. Beckel was one of the main promoters of the Michelle Obama “whitey tape” hoax. That doesn’t qualify him to be dismissed? Why is this proven liar and shameless fraud still on the air?

I’m starting to get as irritated at Fox News as your average World Can’t Wait moonbat.

OK, maybe not quite that irritated. But this is ridiculous.

Let’s play a game. Since Fox also keeps putting the grizzled old Jew-hater Pat Buchanan in front of the cameras, what would be a good name for a show featuring Buchanan and Beckel? Now that would be must-see TV - for Neanderthals.

My jaw has just dropped.

Beckel had the nerve to blame the “whitey tape” smear on right wing bloggers. Wow. A new apex of hypocrisy has now been achieved.

UPDATE at 6/15/08 5:42:17 pm:

Beckel actually claimed that he tried to debunk the rumor. Here’s the video clip, courtesy of Hot Air. Sleazy, sleazy, sleazy: Disgrace: Beckel blames right-wing “crackers” for his own Michelle Obama smearmongering.

UPDATE at 6/15/08 6:08:10 pm:

A quote from Beckel tonight (hat tip: Gilly):

Let these crackers and right wingers prove it before they put it [on the internet] …

Here’s the clip:

Some people seem to think I made a mistake when I wrote above that Pat Buchanan is on Fox News frequently.

Uh, no. No mistake. Pat Buchanan’s Presidential Predictions - Bill O’Reilly | The O’Reilly Factor
