Fox News is on the verge of suicide after Marco Rubio completely self-destructed at the latest Republican presidential debate. The depression and gloom over the Fox News anchors could not be contained.
Fox News is on the verge of suicide after Marco Rubio completely self-destructed at the latest Republican presidential debate. The depression and gloom over the Fox News anchors could not be contained.
Chris Christie made Marco Rubio look like a robot who circuits were fried at the ABC Republican debate. Even after Christie called out Rubio for repeating the same talking point about President Obama over and over again, the Rubio bot couldn't depart from his script. By the fifth time, that Rubio had repeated the same talking point, the debate audience turned on him and booed. Rubio's performance was an unmitigated disaster, and Fox News could not hide their sorrow.

Brit Hume sounded like he might cry as he talked about the debate hurt Marco Rubio in New Hampshire and beyond after he had been, "so fluid a coherent." Apparently, coherence is the new gold standard for Republican presidential candidates. Fox News just wants a candidate who can speak in sentences and make sense.
To the surprise of no one, former Meet The Press moderator David Gregory is working for Fox News during the election. Gregory accused Rubio of trying to look like a general election candidate. A.B. Stoddard also sounded glum as she discussed how Rubio knew what attack was coming but fell into Christie's trap. Steve Hayes was almost wailing that beyond his early implosion, Rubio had a really good debate.
There can be no doubt who Fox News is supporting in the Republican primary. Fox will do anything to get rid of Donald Trump and Ted Cruz. The fact that the on-air talent on Fox sounded massively depressed after Rubio fell apart made it clear that Fox is far from neutral in this election.
Fox News desperately wants a sane nominee, and they have convinced themselves that Marco Rubio is the Republican Party's last best hope in their effort to defeat Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders. Republicans are admitting that their party has no hope of winning if they nominate Trump or Cruz.
It is time to take away the shoelaces and belt buckles from the staff at Fox News because these people are clinically depressed over the demise of Marco Rubio.
Seems like the once popular Oklahoman Fred Harris of OK did that in 1976; said he had been “winnowed in” in IA. But he finished fourth, and the people fell for GA Jimmuh and that smile.
What’ CLE?
The ABC moderators the other night made the Fox debate moderators look like bums.
Everyone should mail Fox boxes of tissues. I use to like Brit Hume but just like the rest of them, he has shown his RINOe butt. When he claimed Trump had nothing of substance to say after Jebby brought up that old woman was just a bold face lie. Jeb talked and when Trump started to respond, Jebby wouldn’t STHU. When Jebby finally shut up, Trump’s response was fine. Now information seems to be coming out about the Bushes own eminent domain issues. At least Trump hasn’t destroyed our children’s education like Jebby has with his Common Crap. I want to know how much money he’s made off our children and grandchildren with that mess.
“Cheap Labor Express”
I’m no fan of Christie, but I give credit where credit is due. Christie exposed Rubio for the empty suit that he is. No matter what Christie or anyone else said to or about him, Rubio’s reply was a pre-recorded “Obama knows what he’s doing to this country...” (which may be true, but it had nothing to do with what was being discussed). I hope that all of Rubio’s supporters saw their walking broken record of a candidate during the debate and are having second thoughts about voting for him.
You know Rubio talks a good line. He is a smooth, fast talker. However, I have some questions.
1. Really what has he done in Senate to combat the great evil that he is now fighting?
2. His most notable contribution was his deep involvement i the Gang of 8 Immigration bill.
3. If he was so concerned about this administration and its agenda, why has he been absent for sooo many votes?
Thing is THEY ALL CAN AND DO TALK TOUGH...NEARLY EVERY ONE of them goes soft and changes when they get into office so we have MORE OF THE STATUS QUO OR WORSE...
I wouldn’t watch CNN exclusively. I don’t watch them at all, but even if I did, I’d watch for bias and discount it. But that only goes so far. It is no prophylactic against news that is being left out of their report.
Back in the seventies, I went to the Canadian National Exhibition in Toronto. The Soviets had an exhibit there in the form of a bookstore. There were plenty of English language books and the prices were quite low. One I particularly remember was called “British Foreign Policy in WWII.” I bought it and a handful of other books. I later realized why the prices were so low. It put Soviet propaganda into new hands easily.
Anyway, the foreign policy book was a history of WWII as seen from the Russian side. The facts, being indisputable, were presented straight. It was the spin, or the interpretation of the events, that ushered in Soviet ideology.
And that’s why I won’t watch MSNBC or CNN. Although they don’t usually deny the facts, they either leave them out or interpret them from a leftist standpoint. If you watch that crap long enough, you’ll get mentally infected.
Britt has been in the toilet for anyone but Bush since the beginning. He has consistently had nothing good to say about Trump. That is why he has frequently been on Kelly’s propaganda hour. She delights in providing an anti-Trump platform for any and all takers including Michael Moore.
Great title.
LOL I don’t watch CNN exclusively—I just find it muchless biased than open borders Faux News.
Eh, with all due respect, I have been railing against immigration for several years...and I learned nothing from either CNN or Faux News on this issue.
It is not I who needs to watch out about being propagandized by Faux News...I don’t like or Trust Rubio, but seems like perhaps you do?....
Few are being propagandized by communists, but rather by open-borders cheap labor express Club of Growth crowd...
Rubio talk is cheap...Oh, he is drilling down on “dog-whistle” terms that endear the conservatives and the right wing—words that have been polled and tested which is why he kept repeating them over and over. But I don’t trust him based on his non conservative, weak, mediocre track record
“Republicans are admitting that their party has no hope of winning if they nominate Trump or Cruz.”
The Republican party bosses are experts on no hope of winning.
However, I too have some questions.
1. Really what has he done in Senate? Any Bills passed?
2. His most notable contribution was his attempt to shutdown the government.
3. He was so busy campaigning, he been absent for so many votes!
Who is he?
Rafael Edward Cruz, Born in Canada to a Cuban citizen.
I don’t like or trust Rubio either.
But until OAN gets a high definition
channel on DirecTV, FNC is the closest
thing I have to a right-of-center news
source. If I’m going to be propagandized,
at least it will be in the direction I’m
prone to go, anyway.
Even playing it straight has consequences,
it seems. It hasn’t been very long ago that
a German-written psychoanalysis of Hitler
was refused publication by the government
of Germany based on the fear that “to
understand all is to forgive all.”
Rather than take a chance on examining Hitler’s
mental motivations and gaining understanding
of what made him do what he did, ‘twas best
to just suppress everything. The ban was
lifted recently and the German Republic still
stands. Huzzah.
Give him hell, Guen!!!!!
Who drilled those 30 second canned speeches into him? Rove’s people, maybe? (Polly want a cracker!)
I don’t usually go to sites where the source is unknown...I don’t want to give them the hit, if per chance they are a lefty site as you say this one is.
Glad I didn’t go there.
The smarmy used car salesman got hoist on his own “only driven on Sundays by a little old lady” petard.
Thanks for the info. We HAVE to pull together behind Trump. He’s got the most votes, the best chance and we’ll pull Independents.
