5 Awful Right-Wing Moments This Week: GOPer’s Bizarre Facebook Rant Against Sasha and Malia Obama

http://www.alternet.org/tea-party-and-right/5-awful-right-wing-moments-week-gopers-bizarre-facebook-rant-against-sasha-and



1. Insane GOP staffer writes open letter to Sasha and Malia Obama criticizing their facial expressions and bar-ready attire.

Sasha and Malia Obama crossed their arms and did not laugh much at their father’s attempt at humor during the somber annual oval office turkey pardon this week. Also, the two teenagers wore skirts. All of this really pissed off GOP staffer Elizabeth Lauten, former new media political director for the Republican National Committee, who thought it a good idea to write an open letter to the first daughters on Facebook:


2. Dinesh D’Souza and Megyn Kelly agree: Education and unions are brainwashing our kids.

Politicals commentator Dinesh D’Souza and Fox host Megyn Kelly have an announcement to make: They have uncovered the vast left-wing conspiracy that has infiltrated the education system and is brainwashing our children to hate America.


3. Faux News faux doc Keith Ablow travels deep inside the mind of protesters in Ferguson and concludes that low self-esteem, rather than injustice, is what makes people riot.

No one does pseudo-psychoanalysis better than Keith Ablow, resident quack at Faux News. This week, Elisabeth Hasselbeck and Eric Bolling showed some footage of the unrest in Ferguson, Missouri in the wake of the Michael Brown verdict. They wanted to know what goes through the mind of a violent protester. So, they asked a protester, right? Wrong. They traveled deep into the mind of Dr. Ablow, who compared the mostly African-American protesters in the clip to misbehaving children who have been sent to their room and smash things up because they “know they have done wrong.”

4. Pat Robertson gets into the spirit of the season by reminding viewers that gay people are destroying America and need to be destroyed.

After running a clip about pilgrims and religious freedom, “The 700 Club” host Pat Robertson somberly managed to miss the entire meaning of “religious freedom.” Instead he warned his viewers that the success of “aberrant lifestyles” in America’s courts, by which he means the steady march of gay rights, is ruining the country. These advances in freedom and equal rights are somehow taking away people’s religious freedom, which again, means the freedom to discriminate against people who practice lifestyles and religions you don’t like.
