Megyn Kelly and Brit Hume Criticize the Media's Focus on Christie, While They Talk About...

BENGHAZI!

This network's focus, or should I say obsession, with the tragedy that occurred MORE THAN A YEAR AGO, which they want to portray as a scandal, has sailed WAY beyond the point of absurdity.

After a comment by Brit Hume regarding the "lack of attention" by the media on Benghazi, Megyn Kelly responded, "they (the media) are more concerned with a bridge than Benghazi."

Also on Fox this evening as I flipped through the channels...

An on-screen graphic asking whether Obama is "Acting Like A Dictator?" when they were talking about executive orders...

A discussion on someone's new book alleging that Hillary Clinton keeps a "hit list" (yes, that was the phrase they used) of Democratic enemies.


This is just getting laughable! We can't make this shit up, but it's what we are up against!

You need to keep repeating the lie until people start believing it. They're still talking about it because we don't believe it.

They cannot sleep at night worrying about Benghazi and who to blame for the attack. My theory is "Benghazi" is an activation message for subliminal hypnosis conditioned among long term viewers of Fox news. The secondary activation for "Benghazi fever" is a blond anchor woman in the presence of a cranky old white man.

I had a beer with a couple old friends, who I know are republicans, they couldn't stop complaining about Benghazi, they think fox is THE ONLY news source, I was laughing at them for 2 hours, debunking their bullshit point by point, they were practically stuttering when we finally agreed to talk about anything else. Garbage in, garbage out. Fox news isn't news, there's a news flash!
