As NewsBusters previously reported, MSNBC's Joy Reid on Thursday badly misinterpreted an Old Testament passage to ridicule former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin for having a Christmas tree on Christmas.
On Saturday, Palin's daughter Bristol took to her blog to respond to Reid in a piece she marvelously titled "Warning: You Might Lose IQ Points by Watching this MSNBC Clip":
Im happy that channel is now so concerned with the Bible though. But isnt it amazing that the host believes theres a passage in Jeremiah that is talking about CHRISTMAS trees?
That is soo funny.
Is that next to the verses in Lamentations about Rudolph?
Or the one in Leviticus about Frosty the Snowman?
Its about the best example of Palin Derangement Syndrome Ive seen lately: using an Old Testament Bible verse about idolatry to talk about a modern Christian tradition? Newsflash, MSNBC: no one worships Christmas trees. Not to mention Jesus was born hundreds of years after that passage was written.
Welcome to MSNBC, Bristol - a place where facts are things to ignore when they interfere with your agenda.
But Palin wasn't finished mocking MSNBC, for she concluded her piece with a video clip from Adam Sandler's "Billy Madison" that perfectly describes what regular viewers of this so-called "news network" see virtually 24/7:
Billy Madison - Ultimate Insult (Academic Decathlon)[Forum Weapon][How To Troll][Ignorance Is Bliss]
Go Bristol go! What a great American family!
Wow... I did in fact lose IQ after watching that video clip...
Joy...shouldn’t you be terrorizing a mall somewhere?
My IQ dropped well below the Mendoza line....this woman is Dingbatting a thousand
WARNING: WATCHING THIS NETWORK DESTROYS BRAIN CELLS 100Xs FASTER THAN GRAIN ALCOHOL!
Just as Bristol Palin posted, Christians do not worship a tree or the day of worship of an ancient 'sun god' that was supposedly the basis for choosing December 25th as the birthday of Jesus. That atheists still attempt to use this absurd premise as a basis to attack Christianity and, in this instance, the Palin family, demonstrates their (a) Biblical ignorance and, (b) their obsession with anything Palin, who, they never tire of telling us, is 'irrelevant'. I think not.
Just when I think MSNBC can’t get any lower, they mock someone’s religious beliefs? I guess they know their audience though.
When it comes to anti-idol scriptures (the proper application of Jer 10:10), I always get a kick out of Isa 44:14-17. Some guy’s out cutting wood and uses some of what he’s cut for his own use. He cooks his food on half a log and fashions the other half into a god to worship. I’m always concerned what happens if he gets the divine and caloric ends mixed up!
Are you thinking Chris Christie or what?
Christie....worship....confused with.....food...
Hmmm, my brain never took it there, but I think you nailed it!
Just when you think MSNBC’s hit bottom when it comes to clownery...they break out the drill.
Perhaps Joy can be groomed to take Sheila Jackson Lee’s district. She probably would love to see the flag Neil Armstrong planted on mars.
GO BRISTOL!! And she’s right, watching MSLSD literally kills brain cells, but luckily the morons who watch MSNBC dont have brains anyway so they dont lose anything
Wow, you just can’t make this stuff up, I don’t think you could find someone that stupid to utter word from the Bible that they nothing about and use them out of contect to mock omeone else.
I don't want to lose any brain cells from watching it, so I will just ask, is Joy Reid a racist?
That my FRiend, is the understatement of the year.
