Fox’s Brit Hume proves his head is up Romney's ass

Fox’s Brit Hume: Romney’s Libya Remarks ‘Correct’ But ‘Clumsy’

Fox News managing editor Brit Hume defended the substance of Mitt Romney's criticisms of President Obama over the violence in Libya, but said the Republican nominee's remarks were "clumsy" and ill-timed.

"I think what he said was correct but it was clumsy," Hume said on Fox News Sunday. "And it opened him up to charges that he made a terrible mistake. We had an almost ludicrous overreaction in a lot of the media about it, in which what he did became the big story, rather than what was happening over there. Which is not a great moment for our national media."

"He could've waited -- it might've been better if he had."

"correct" about Romney's statement. It wasn't "clumsy." It was a craven lie.

$$$$$

No other reason, as they have no moral compass. Very few of them even believe one word that comes out of their own mouths.

If I had the money to offer every right-wing talking head double their current salary, inside of a week I could have them all saying that Socialism is the only thing that will save this nation.

Exactly...The only alternative would be that they are too stupid to function on air.....


"If I had the money to offer every right-wing talking head double their current salary, inside of a week I could have them all saying that Socialism is the only thing that will save this nation."

Unquestionably....No coherent way to argue otherwise.......
