My my...touchy ..aren't we? Yes...you can watch and whine...it's still a free country. Nevertheless, the suggestion that if she so annoys you, to watch something else, does make sense. Since you seem a bit ..tense..anyway, it doesn't seem logical to inflate your blood pressure any higher.

Personally, I rather like Megyn Kelly. In comparison, I prefer Dana Perino, for both looks and professional bearing. If she were to run for president with Megyn Kelly as her running mate I would vote for them. It would be great fun to see their campaign, and wat h leftist /liberal heads explode like hot paint cans. I could probably go off my BP meds seing that. Laughter is the best medicine.

I prefer the snotty, condescending and smarmy Mr. Maddow.

would you like some cheese with your wine?

To you she is a joke, to some others, yes might be as well, but maybe some of this has to do with jealousy and the left having trouble understanding how all these women, could be smart, educated, attractive and conservatives. That just kills you guys I think.

at least oreilly will challenge conservative guests, even though he agrees with them most of the time.
She totally swung and whiffed when she had Ezekiel Emanuel on to talk about Obamacare. At a minimum she should have asked him to define "when resources are scarce" - who makes that decision? Is there a dollar amount?

She had Ezekiel Emanuel on twice. That's Rahm's whacko brother who helped craft Obamacare and used to advise Obama. She never mentioned his Complete Lives System where he says it's okay, when resources are scarce, to throw out anyone over 65 and very young children/infants (because society hasn't invested in them yet), and only give resources to...well here, you can hear it from him on his own words and how he justifies rationing when resources are scarce:

“Unlike allocation by sex or race, allocation by age is not invidious discrimination; every person lives through different states rather than being a single age. Even if 25-year-olds receive priority over 65-year-olds, everyone who is 65 years now was previously 25 years. Consideration of the importance of complete lives also supports modifying the youngest-first principle by prioritising adolescents and young adults over infants. Adolescents have received substantial education and parental care, investments that will be wasted without a complete life. Infants by contrast, have not yet received these investments. Similarly, adolescence brings with it a developed personality capable of forming and valuing long-term plans whose fulfillment requires a complete life.”

http://www.scribd.com/doc/18280675/P...-Interventions

Lifesite News reported that in a Hastings Center Report, 1996, Emanuel also spoke of denying care to the disabled:

“In a separate 1996 article for the Hastings Center Report, Emanuel spoke about rationing care away from those "who are irreversibly prevented from being or becoming participating citizens" to the non-disabled, adding "An obvious example is not guaranteeing health services to patients with dementia."

http://www.lifesitenews.com/news/arc...9/aug/09081109

Again, the point of this post isn't rationing. We've had those discussions before. It's Megyn Kelly not mentioning it at all when she had Emanuel on her show twice. I mean seriously, is he the right guest to have on when the issue is a broken website and people losing their health insurance? I don't think so. He's the guest you have on to discuss ethics of Obamacare.

Quit being so jealous. It isn't a nice look on you.

I find that life is much better now that I have gone back to READING BOOKS instead of watching tv.
Oh, yes, I do watch some tv. I find Dr. Phil rather funny sometimes, and I enjoy Antiques Roadshow and This Old House. I watch the CBS news, and sometimes I even find the stories believable. Same thing for the local news. I watch Undercover Boss.
As far as the people who are incessantly decried on here, I have to ask "Who are these people, and why do they cause such hate and discontent? If you find them so upsetting, WHY on earth don't you just IGNORE them?"
Hannity, O'Reilly, Kelly, etc.? The only place I ever see their names is on here! If it wasn't for that, I wouldn't even know they exist!

Think you nailed it. The lady commentators on FOX, especially Megyn Kelly, put the libs into fits that require sedation to calm. Hurling the vilest of rhetoric, insulting the womens femininity, it's just...crass. Schoolgirl antics.

Some people watch for entertainment purposes. Something to laugh at and poke fun of. And you're full of it if you think it's just liberals who do that, as are most statements that blame the other side for everything.

I'm with the OP. On occasion, I'll go to YouTube specifically in search for a clip of some political (be them liberal or conservative) or religious/anti-religious lunatic. Why not? Everyone has their guilty pleasure. At least mine is still relevant to important issues, keeping me apprised of how messed up people can become.

I think Megyn Kelly is so annoying it's hysterical. Wrap your head around that one

Not. To mention, Honey Boo-Boo is vastly more qualified to speak on politics.....or most anything else.
