If You Sync Up Obama’s Lies With Pink Floyd’s ‘Echoes’ Then It Totally Becomes ‘The Godfather’

by Jim Newell  

Just watch, in full, and keep in mind that this is what Fox & Friends is like *without* Steve Doocy. Oh, and Brian Kilmeade, what’s confusing you near the end there: they’re called “hedge funds,” and they play a big role in stuff, much more than just one George Soros/Marlon Brando can do on his own.

Yeah, and if you play BillO’s “O’Really Factor For Little Fucktards” audiobook backwards, it’s the communist manifesto.

Clancy_Pants March 26, 2009 at 5:48 pm

This is new? Past 8 year anyone? Anyone?

Canuckledragger March 26, 2009 at 5:50 pm

PS – If anybody should know something about a “mob mentality,” is would be FOX. They’ve got one good brain between them, but they can’t figure out the operating instructions.

The Cold Sea March 26, 2009 at 5:51 pm

The Cobama crime family. “What do you mean? Extortion?” “Decide 90% of your bonus belongs to him!” Of course this dude wants less government intervention in his life. HE IS A CONVICT! A MOB CONVICT! Teh idiot cancer is contagious!

DC Hates Me March 26, 2009 at 5:52 pm

Foxnews cut back their graphics dept. A 6th grader with MSPaint is all they can afford.

GreatSatan March 26, 2009 at 5:53 pm

Just out of curiosity, does anyone who watches Fox News take this stuff seriously? Especially this incredibly dangerous and irresponsible madness about George Soros CAUSING the recession? That makes about as much sense as birds plus rocks equals rainbows.

Also, a former mobster espousing conservative ideals is maybe not the best advertisement for a new GOP.

Gopherit March 26, 2009 at 5:56 pm

Right, Cheney has assassination squads, but fucking hopey is the godfather. Fuck you Doocy.

AKAM80TheWolf March 26, 2009 at 5:57 pm

Does the Mafia also have TELEPROMPTERZ, Mr. Franzese? I bet they would scare you.

Gopherit March 26, 2009 at 5:57 pm

[re=274415]GreatSatan[/re]: Meh. He’s probably a good Catholic. It’s all good.

WadISay March 26, 2009 at 5:57 pm

Mob guy wants less government intervention in his life. There’s front page news.

lovekills March 26, 2009 at 5:57 pm

REALLY!!!!!!! Can they get anymore batshit?

Canuckledragger March 26, 2009 at 5:57 pm

[re=274415]GreatSatan[/re]: “a former mobster espousing conservative ideals is maybe not the best advertisement for a new GOP.”

Sure didn’t work so well for the OLD GOP.

teklanika March 26, 2009 at 5:58 pm

@GreatSatan I dunno, when your other options are Rush and Michael “My Mouth Should be Ducttaped Shut for the Good of the Party” Steele… Well, mob boss seems pretty reasonable and tame, really.

Buzz Feedback March 26, 2009 at 5:59 pm

Up next mouthbreathers, Paul, Sr. from “Orange County Choppers” (he of the cock-duster ‘stache) complains about the stimulus package.

L Urchin March 26, 2009 at 6:00 pm

Pure gold. It’s just missing Count Floyd saying how scary this all is, kids. Who’d have guessed a mobster would want less governmental control in his life.

Bruno March 26, 2009 at 6:00 pm

God that’s boring. It would be a lot better if he used a bunch of mob names like “the finger” or “the enforcer” or “jimmy short”

SayItWithWookies March 26, 2009 at 6:01 pm

Spying on people with no warrants? Silence.
Arresting Americans and holding them indefinitely without charges? Nothing.
Stop-lossing soldiers to keep them in combat forever, if necessary? Bupkus.
Firing US Attorneys who refuse to illegally raid ACORN branches right before an election? Nada.
Making elections unverifiable? Shhhh.
Torturing people to death and covering it up? Nothing to see here.
Giving no-bid contracts to your rich friends? The American way.

Regulate the finance industry so another AIG doesn’t bring the entire planet’s economy down around it the next time some rich assholes decide to play Lotto with your money? AAAAAIGH! FOUR-ALARM FIRE! TO YOUR TENTS, O ISRAEL! TORCHES AND PITCHFORKS!

So glad Fox News and an ex-mobster are the voice of sanity on this issue.

Tommmcatt March 26, 2009 at 6:02 pm

They should really hire the Batboy as a host on this Fox and Friends thing….

Holden Caulfield March 26, 2009 at 6:03 pm

Wait, I watched the Sopranos. Didn’t they off the gay dude? So why is Barney Frank someone they have to keep around?

Gopherit March 26, 2009 at 6:04 pm

[re=274430]Tommmcatt[/re]: Or make Doocy do his thing in a mask and tights?

shanemacgowan March 26, 2009 at 6:14 pm

I believe that Fox has the homicidal sociopath demographic sewn up.

Stugatz!

shortsshortsshorts March 26, 2009 at 6:17 pm

[re=274430]Tommmcatt[/re]: Fox and Friends is possibly, with the obvious exception of Glenn Beck, the most wignutty (and therefore MOST AWESOME) program on Fox. Malkin was just on it, as well SEETHING about the coming “socialist non-profit media.” She really is the BEST.

Tomorrows headline, ” FORMER FOX MOBSTER FOUND DEAD.”

One Yield Regular March 26, 2009 at 6:19 pm

Awesome.

What, amid such splendors, to choose from?

That FOX is now turning to mob bosses for expert commentary?

That “us mob guys” are “pretty patriotic” (to Italy?…)?

That George Soros is “pulling the strings” at the same time that FOX’s splendid graphics department has him dangling from them? (Marionettes controlling marionettes is a daisy chain I just don’t need to think about).

SayItWithWookies March 26, 2009 at 6:25 pm

[re=274439]sati demise[/re]: Especially when the government gives them a cut of the action. They’re our own Sunni Awakening — not that that makes me feel better about it.

peorgietirebiter March 26, 2009 at 6:26 pm

Let’s face the facts; government meddling totally fucked-upped the Gambino Crime Family, and turned a lot of grease-balls into Reagan Mussocrats.

Chuckie Jesus March 26, 2009 at 6:29 pm

The best joke the Rich ever played on the Poors (the Republican party) ended with the best punchline: shithead Joe the Plumberesque schmucks who don’t benefit at all, defending the kleptocracy.

I wonder how much a FOX news reporter grosses in a year? Enough to make him/her elite?

Newsflash: It’s hard to maintain a rock and roll lifestyle (which I’m sure they toooootally earned) when The Help can’t even afford to fill the gas tank to get out to your mansion to scrub the shitstains out of your toilet. TRUFAX!

picyou March 26, 2009 at 6:34 pm

That’s a pretty weighty tome that Michael “The Author” Frazese and his crew cranked out. Let’s see here….the Mob’s got a hierarchy, and so does the government. The Mob wants power and control, and so does the government, and Obama probably invented that in the last two months! Garsh! I never thought of it that way.

And by the way, Mr. Patriot Frazese, who set fire to the Normandie?

TreadingWater March 26, 2009 at 6:47 pm

How gullible are these people? If I write and tell them that I am an ex-satanist, and that the Obama cabinet is exactly like a satanist coven performing a black mass, will I get to be on the show?

The e-mail to the show is: friends@foxnews.com (from Fox and Friends website).

Maybe the Obama administration is more like being in a polygamist marriage, or being addicted to meth, or playing linebacker for the Atlanta Falcons, or….

I’m sure that Fox and Friends is dying to hear your story.

El Pinche March 26, 2009 at 6:49 pm

WE’RE SURROUNDED …. by idjits.

Guess who’s on MSNBC right now? Tucker Bounds!!

He says Obama is financially destroying the MSM media like NYT, WaPo, etc for not giving them access recently. Wow. He should go back his to fuckin hole.

arclight March 26, 2009 at 6:53 pm

Brian Kilmeade thinks that if you know what you’re talking about, you obviously hate America!!!!!!

MISTAHCOUGHDROP March 26, 2009 at 6:58 pm

I really enjoyed the way he said the Mob was always patriotic. Curious how most Mob bosses met their end by NOT PAYING TAXES.

Kilmeade is a dumbass. Brian you reading this? Tomorrow when you and the Judge go off on your Socialist Bender, say hello to me and remember I know you’re a dumbass.

Is Fox News serious? No, that’s why it’s Fox Noise. But seriously, that is the dumbest clip. Or are they just going for camp? That’s scary. Do people look at that as if that’s the news. And a conservative gangster! This is just camp.

comradepaulson March 26, 2009 at 7:22 pm

This is off-topic, but I think it would be nice to have a post pointing out that the GOP released their budget proposal today WITHOUT ANY NUMBERS. Just windmills, windmills whirling towards freedom. Anyway, I want to point and laugh at them, again. Wait, I think I just did. Nevermind.

A washed up mobster is now the right’s Billy KKKristol?

Should I even be surprised the Fuck News Channel hit a new low?

Since this video is naturally blocked at my work, I really am hoping it won’t ruin “Echoes” for me when I watch it at home.

Advocatus_Diaboli March 26, 2009 at 7:27 pm

Jesus, considering he spent time in the hoosegow, he apparently wasn’t even good at being a mobster. So this makes him an expert on exactly what?

But, the brown haired guy who’s not Steve Doocy is never wrong.

Don’t forget to read the GLORIOUS comments on the youtube.com page. Even by rightwing nutjob standards, they are fantastic. “OPEN YOUR EYES!” I love that stuff. How many idiots are there out there who really think they “get it”, while the “elite” eduated people are just stuck in teh dark. They really believe this. Amazing.

SayItWithWookies March 26, 2009 at 8:27 pm

[re=274496]Jukesgrrl[/re]: I’m not worried about it — there are plenty of folks here sharper than I am.

But just to balance things out — tomorrow Fox ‘n Friends is welcoming the guy on those enlarged prostate medicine commercials — the one who takes huge planets and shrinks them into museum dioramas — to offer his incisive analysis of what to do about the budget deficit.

QuestionEvil March 26, 2009 at 9:10 pm

So the gumba mook on the couch has convinced the Albino Chick and the artificial life form sitting next to her that George Soros orchestrated the financial downturn from his secret lair in Cuba along with President Obama, Mickey Mouse, Hugo Chavez, one but not both of the Olsen twins, and the cancer that killed Babe Ruth.

Now if in theory this was a ‘Fair and Balanced’ news network couldn’t one ask him exactly how his same Mob theory applies to not only Faux News but also to the presidency of Godfather/Darth Dick Cheney… Uh… I mean George W. Bush, or Jar Jar/Fredo in this analogy. I don’t know why I might make that mistake.

McDuff March 26, 2009 at 9:28 pm

As a Federal employee, I would welcome the chance to walk into some Wall Street office and knee cap a couple of the mo-fos who mo-fo’d the economy. Maybe after the “word” got around on Wall Street there would be a lot less mo-fo’n around with other people’s retirement money.

By the way, why does Fox Noise seem to suggest that acting “liberal” (taking more chances) with other people’s money is “conservative,” but requiring bankers and the like to act more conservative with other people’s money is seen as liberal (and thus BAD)?

HedonismBot March 26, 2009 at 10:17 pm

The one thing that keeps me going is the hope that the people on Fox News – along with all the self-righteous prick journalists whining about TelePrompterz and Obama’s press secretary asking questions of Telemundo (gasp!) – will wake up one day and say “my God, my whole life is a joke.”
What would they do then? I believe the good Sen. Chuck Grassley had some great advice for them recently…

Lionel Hutz Esq. March 27, 2009 at 4:05 am

I remember when I was young I worked for this butcher who started to get pressured by the mob. It was terrible. First they made him fill out Mafia Form 91-288302CDS/3, in triplicate, and the supplemental pages to Mafia Form 83-223JK84LS00284-3/5, rev. A. After six to eight weeks, they responded with a determination in lieu of actual smack down, which stated their cut would be 10% of our gross, as listed in Schedule A of the Standard Mob Take Down Form, or our annual books, based upon Schedule B, after taking into consideration the time/loss adjustments of Mob Publication 42 “Do I Want My Legs Broken,” which ever was bigger. Needless to say, we appealed.

God, after seeing that, I can totally understand how Obama is Fat Tony.

Lionel Hutz Esq. March 27, 2009 at 4:06 am

Wait, they allow the guy who is not Steve Doocy to talk?

schvitzatura March 27, 2009 at 4:16 am

Scintillating! Give him his own show, Fox! Groom him as Ailes’ eventual replacement – clearly the man is an authority.

Custerwolf March 27, 2009 at 11:43 am

Fox’s strategy:
Rely on your viewer’s mob mentality to get them all frothy over the headline “‘mob’ mentality?” in order to to draw them into a lame story delivered by some greasy ex-con mob flunkie.

Next week they’re going to invite Bill Ayers over for him to discuss how Obama’s administration acts like a terrorist group. Then the ironi-circle will be completed.
