(LOL) Fox's Cavuto brings Colbert's parody full circle--screenshots


http://mediamatters.org/items/200608150005

Summary: On Your World, during a segment in which Jonathan S. Tobin, the executive editor of The Jewish Exponent, chastised Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton for "appeas the Arabs and try to pressure Israel not to take military advantage or not to defend itself fully," the onscreen text read: "The #1 President On Mideast Matters: George W. Bush?"



CAVUTO: All right. Well, first, the cease-fire -- now the credit. Many critics were betting that President Bush would fail the test on the Israel and Hezbollah conflict, not my next guest. Jonathan Tobin says that this president's handling of the Mideast is the best this generation has seen by far. He's executive editor of The Jewish Exponent. So, this president is better on the Middle East than Jimmy Carter or Bill Clinton? Explain.

defending Dubya's words and actions. It's like defending an admitted criminal. All you can do is either try to create sympathy for a difficult childhood, or downplay the the victim's suffering.

2. I give in.
Fox News has finally convinced me that * is the best man who ever lived. He's a real life Superman, the best that America and the world has to offer, the panacea for all ills, the answer to our prayers and the magic solution to every problem.

5. FINALLLY!
Sheesh do you have any idea how much they spent on you?? Okay one down

The election fix of 2004 was meant to do exactly that-breaks everyone's spirit but you know what.... it didn't it actually made us stronger. I guarantee that that was a part of the plan and I have to admit it was a real gut shot but everyone I know who worked on the campaign (plus around here) pretty much climbed out of that rubble at the beginning of 2005, brushes off the dust, and went back to work. The inauguration was useless at that point and since then everything has been just as we expected always has been really.

3. "(T)his president's handling of the Mideast...
...is the best this generation has seen by far." To which I can only respond with, "What, the generation after January 20, 2001?"
