"charming the pants off" of many many men...and the men had to do nothing since melania was probably naked from her last photo shoot

Well does Michele Obama speak Slovenian? Answer that one, huh.

Seriously, this was way more Fox ugliness than a normal human being should be asked to view. My mind and stomach are both in turmoil. Not only is everyone at Fox (OK, maybe excepting Step Smith and occasionally -- just occasionally -- Mike Wallace's little boy) devoid of integrity and honesty, but what of their viewers? Oh my poor, poor humanity! Watching this gaggle of snarky, lying creeps day after day, hour after hour, will soften and liquify the brain of the best of us. And Fox viewers, I can say without any hesitation, are not the best of us. Not even the "meh" of us.

Well, OK, they are the most racist of us, the most impervious-to-logic-facts-and-reason of us, the most dull-witted, angry for being white without the "privilege" of a first lady, flying around the world, going to fancy dress balls, wearing clothes you can't buy at Macy's (let alone Walmart) when white women have to do without. Heckuva thing to be "best" at -- but isn't that really what Melania asked for?

Dammit, my brain is on fire and now I'm going to have to go put the fire out with some of my diminishing stash of single malt scotch

Especially with that illiterate manatee occupying 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

My husband has also stopped drinking wine, in solidarity with me. We find a great deal of solace in each other (and we save money!)...

The network where double standards are a pastime. I could not make it through the whole video. Having to listen those talking heads is a waste of time.

when RWNJ's start whining about how Melania is treated. She's the first sex-worker First Lady this country has had and RWNJ's don't want you disparaging her!
