Inquisitive Fox News Ponders: 'What Is a Democrat?'

Fox News anchor Jenna Lee posed a very deep question to Rep. Chris Van Hollen today: "What is a Democrat?" she asked, pensively. Then, the follow-up: "And how is that different from a Republican?" Has she considered using Wikipedia?

Near as I can tell, a Democrat is someone who grovels at the throne of Wall Street, protects the interest of big business, and fights needless wars.

“What Is A Democrat?” Wonders Fox News Anchor Jenna Lee

What is one way to waste two minutes of cable news?

How about asking a Democratic congressman, “What is a Democrat?” and “How is that different than a Republican?” and letting him talk about whatever he wants. ....

Van Hollen continued – finally coming to a conclusion. “You asked me a very broad question, and I’m answering you,” he said.

So – what was the point of this exercise? “I feel like we throw around these terms, and we understand that there are divisive issues, but sometimes we don’t really understand who’s behind that,” she said. This is not a knock on Lee, still new to FNC after a few years covering the business side of the news for Fox Business Network. But there’s a Daily Show segment in here somewhere…

And coming up in the next hour – how does a bill become a law?
