Almost every week, Republicans join a competition to see who can say the most outlandish things, and in the process, they push the envelope on just how bad InsaniTEA can become. I trust that you will believe it, when I tell you that last week was no exception.
Kimberly Guilfoyle proves her idiocy again.
Fox News’ “The Five” celebrated St. Patrick’s Day by attacking as many other ethnic groups as they could. Greg Gutfeld lamented the fact that you can’t make fun of Mexicans, for instance. “If you throw a Mexican party, like a fiesta and wear a sombrero, you’re in big trouble — a Cinco de Mayo party, for example,” he said. “But you can do whatever you want and actually use stereotypes that are kind of damaging [to Irish people].”
Juan Williams tried to inject some intelligence and sensitivity into the discussion by pointing out some actual history about discrimination against Irish people, and that their struggles led to some of the country’s immigration reform, and then placing it in the context of today’s immigrants. Silly Juan. Thoughtful analysis has no place at Fox.
“But the Irish got over it,” Kimberly Guilfoyle interjected irrelevantly. “They don’t run around going, ‘Irish Lives Matter.’”
She is just never going to get over the fact that people have the audacity to say black lives matter. Never never never never…

First of all, Faux Noise is lying. When I lived in Colorado and Arizona, I attended Cinco de Mayo events where they sold sombreros to gringos like me. I had my own, a gift from a Mexican friend, and at local fiestas most people, including virtually all the Latinos, wore them. Guilfoyle is yet another cleavage cutie from the Republican Reichsministry of Propaganda, Faux Noise, proselytizing racist Republican hate.
This is just the fourth of five worst Republican moments listed from last week alone. Click through for the other four.

No wonder I never watch that station.
1. Did Jeffrey Lord use to work for the FBI or CIA? His thinking demonstrates the kind of true-false inversion their operations have always had.
2. I suppose we need to get accustomed to the fact that these delicate flowers we call white supremacists. go into seizures at the idea that their world domination exists and is not God-given. As for as a soft spot for Hitler, way too many Americans had that in the thirties. The world is fortunate that FDR did not.
3. Taking out Daesh (AKA ISIS) would be a little like taking out cancer. No one has a good enough brain to do that single handed.
4. She doesn't get it because she doesn't want to get it. I realize it's tough to write her off when she has such a platform, but I'm not sure how else to deal with her. If you tried to convince her with facts, reason, and logic, you could lose your own mind under the pressure.
5. Like the rest of us, and more particularly like most parents of school age children, Becky Guidry probably doesn't have the luxury to choose where she will live. If she does, she will still have difficulty finding a state to live in which does prioritize – and FUND – education. Michigan is out, so are Wisconsin and Kansas, and the list goes on. Maybe Oregon. Western Oregon.
We never watch the Faux channel.
Thanks Tom for posting. Gotta run!
Just a bunch of buffoons!
Theonly thing I can think of, from recent history, that is worse than Rumpy consulting with his sooooo good brain, is Jebbie consulting with his older brother!
I shared this with my son who lives in Mississippi, he probably knows the Senator who was so rude to a constituent. I will follow up when he gives me the low down.
Morning Joe always lets Trump ramble on, the show really should be on Fox.
I am starting to get nervous about the election, too many are supporting a ludicrous, reality star.
People who chazlm that MSNBC is liberal is either lying oe has never watched Morning Joe.
It's rather sad to see that progressive media like Alternet fall in the Drumpf trap too: three of the five Republican moments and the introduction were all about Drumpf. When are we going to learn that Drumpf AND his followers thrive on attention, ANY attention. I must admit that David Duke's further endorsement of Drumpf because he makes his hero Adolf Hitler look good, is hilarious apart from all the anti-Semitic and Nazi BS he's parroting. Even Drumpf might want to reconsider this ex-KKK leader's endorsement for the kind of attention it draws.
I'm glad you chose a non-Drumpf item, TomCat, but my least favorite Republican of the week is Karl Oliver who told a constituent to move back to the state she came from because she didn't agree with his cut-throat policies. In fact he told her he couldn't care less she didn't think giving tax-breaks were a good idea, because there was an overwhelming majority of taxpayers who agreed with. Oh darn, this is about Drumpf influence on politics after all.
It's so hatd, Lona. Over 90% of the articles in my feed aggrigator this morning were related to Fecal Dump Trump.
"Kimberly Guilfoyle proves her idiocy again." — Is it 'again' or should it really be 'STILL'? And I would lump Drumpf, Lord, Duke, and Karl Oliver in with her! After reading some European news this morning, add France's Marine LePen and her father, Jean-Marie LePen, to this cabal of morons. She visited Québec this past weekend and pulled a DeGaulle (his famous phrase 'Vive le Québec libre' from 1967 in Québec City) when she said she would recognise the province of Québec as an independent state internationally.
It is just the SSDD from the far right nut jobs!!!
I;vw heard od LePen. She's a Republican.
Thanks all! Hugs!!
