Interchangeable Calamities in Fox World: I Had to Wait an Hour and a Half on Hold! ~~~ I Had My Limbs Blown Off By an Errant Smart Bomb! . . .

Jeebus kripes on a shit sandwich:

Fox News' Martha MacCallum had this to say on Monday about the rollout of Obamacare:
“What I keep coming back to in all of this is unlike other issues — Katrina or the Iraq war —this is something that touches so many people’s lives across the country and you don’t know whether the president is going to be able to successfully dodge it.”

Sigh . . . .

Because yes bubble-head, blonde-bimbo, wingnut Fox "News" lady -- having to wait on hold on the phone for a couple of hours trying to sign up for an ACA health plan has equally affected the number of human lives that the Iraq war and it's aftermath has.

The Gadfly is convinced that Rupert Murdoch and Roger Ailes have mandated that, as the primary prerequisite for employment at Fox, all aspiring "news" division personalities must be willing to publicly humiliate themselves and denigrate their profession on air at appointed intervals just to prove their loyalty to the conservative cause.

Must suck to have the signature catch-phrase of your network ("Fair and Balanced") be nothing more these days than the punch line to a crude joke.
