Yes. After reporting a Breaking News Alert a few minutes ago about an explosion in Ankara, Jon Scott just read an anti-Breaking News Alert.

They should've played their Breaking News Alert chime backwards.

And then Scott should've used his best Emily Littela voice and said, "Never mind."

Erdogan is setting himself up to be a dictator and, once again, the Obama Administration is on the wrong side of history in taking the side of an Islamic fundamentalist.

They are all just a bunch of TelePrompTer readers anyway. You could put the ingredients of a can of soup into the PrompTer and they'd read it as if it was a series news story.

A special talent to be sure.

Turkey is headed for Civil War. Erdogan has just made half a million new enemies. Many of those held arrested with no lawyers or phone calls had nothing to do with the coup.

I really doubt if anyone will sell Erdogan a life insurance policy. So similar to Germany in the early thirties.

That is what I had just seen on FoxNews online. Nothing surprises me anymore.

Erdogan has enormous support among the common people. He has declared himself the Mahdi, seized American thermonuclear weapons at Incirlick, and taken under his protection ISIS.

Turkey is not headed towards civil war; he is intent on rebirthing the Ottoman Empire.

Yeah. If Shep gets his way. He probably aksed Gretchen as she was walking out the screen door, “Did someone already call dibs on your wardrobe?”

He is holding 40,000 innocent prisoners. No lawyers. No phone calls. No family member meetings. Each prisoner has relatives and friends. Do the math.

Didn’t you read the Shoebat article?

Erdogan has wrapped himself in religion and history. He has fulfilled prophecies important to Muslims. It doesn’t matter to us how crazy and cruel it all seems; those people do not think like Westerners. Most importantly, he has taken in ISIS and is now supporting those murderers.

What seems logical to us is unacceptable to others.
