Why is everyone on FOX News crying all of the time?

As everyone knows, Glenn Beck is crying, like, every seven minutes on his show and now music is making The O’Reilly Factor producer/stalker Jesse Watters weep into his Twitters because, I guess, he’s a big fucking pussy:

Here’s the video of John Rich’s performance that made Watters cry. If those folks in Atlanta were real Americans they would have beaten Rich to death for wearing a lady jacket. I’m not sure why Hannity announced right after Rich finished that the audience was “suffering.” That’s not a nice thing to say, Sean! Did you mean because of the jacket? Did you order them not to kill him for wearing women clothes? Jesse (hah, that’s a girl’s name!) also tweeted that the song “is the ‘Proud to be an American’ of our generation.” I think he’s right about that. *urp*

[Hat tip to the General for letting us know that Watters tweets. We are now “following” Jesse, just like he follows the people he stalks. It’s a funny, mixed-up world we live in!]

UPDATE: I was duped, along with a lot of other people. The Jesse Watters Twitter account is fake. D’oh! Well played, whoever was behind it.

Whiny-ass titty babies, every single one of them. Oh, and how does it feel, New Yorkers, to live outside the “real world”?

We’re only 100 days into the Obama administration, and the GOP has gone full-batshit already. Either they’re going to completely burn out by July, or this is going to be a long eight years of listening to these loons.

If there’s one quotation that I am in serious danger of over-using for the next eight years, it is Jon Stewart’s

I think you’re confusing ‘tyranny’ with ‘losing.’

The wingers have always thought that we live outside the real world. They’ve always thought we’re all left-wing communist Jewish homosexual pornographers. They only suspend that rule when they want to pat themselves on the back for being angry at Muslims for 9/11.

But Steve, they will happily take tax money from the left-wing communist Jewish homosexual pornographers to pay for their fucking highways and other pork projects. I honestly think that’s what needs to be emphasized over and over again—most of these “tax protestors” get a hugely inequitable cut of federal tax dollars compared to how much their states and districts contribute.

As Mike Royko once said years ago when downstate Illinois rednecks were protesting giving more money to public transit in Chicago, if there is a secession movement, it should be for big cities to secede and become their own city/states. “Without the rest of Illinois, Chicago is still one of the world’s greatest cities. Without Chicago, Illinois is just another Iowa.” (Apologies for dissing Iowa, which has shown itself far more progressive than many other “heartland” states.)

There is a great history of populism stretching back to farmers’ guilds and trade unions in the midwest, which is why it’s so aggravating to see that co-opted and disfigured into these kind of teahall putsch antics.
