Delusional moron Dana Loesch applauds GOP-caused Government Shutdown

As the nation's talking about the federal government being shut down (which the GOP/Tea Party extremists led by Ted Cruz and John Boehner caused BTW), KFTK radio host and conservative liar Dana Loesch celebrating the disastrous GOP-caused shutdown by falsely blaming the Democratic Party for allowing it to happen and even cheered the EPA being shut down.


As of Tuesday and continuing until further notice, the United States government has been shut down for the first time since 1995-1996. 
Guess who's to blame for the shutdown? It's the GOP and the Tea Party 100 percent.
They are absolutely harming America by playing games with our economy and pandering to hard-right Tea Party members rather than find a solution to help the American people out, such as their insistence on defunding the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (aka Obamacare). 
This political stunt by House Speaker John Boehner, Sen. Ted Cruz and their right-wing cronies may end up handing the keys to the House of Representatives over to the Democrats in the 2014 elections. This event also serves as a reminder to vote out all Republicans next year.

Her tweets that baselessly attack Democrats on the government shutdown:
Media Matters For America debunked the false right-wing spin that "Harry Reid's ignoring children who have cancer" was originated by the conservative-biased Washington Free Beacon and then spreads to the rest of the RWNJ apparatus.

Conservative media are selectively and deceptively quoting from an exchange between CNN's Dana Bash Senate and Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) to make it appear as if he dismissed the plight of cancer-stricken children being denied access to clinical trials due to the shutdown of the federal government. In fact, Reid said that legislators should fully fund the government, rather than force different groups to fight over funding. 
Specifically, conservatives are claiming that Reid replied to a reporter's question, "If you can help one child with cancer, why wouldn't you?"  by saying "why would we want to do that?" In fact, Reid was responding to Sen. Chuck Schumer, who had interjected, saying "why pit one against the other?"
On October 1, the federal government was shut down after conservative Republicans refused to pass legislation funding operations unless that funding was tied to the defunding or delay of Obamacare.








The Democrats DID NOT shut down the government, you low-life fucking liar! The GOP voted for it








Tea Party members/supporters are NOT the majority of the country; however, they are a majority of the GOP's support base. Another lie from you, Mrs. Loesch. 






Yes, it's the GOP's fault, you stupid turdbreath!


WRONG. The GOP did.

Dana Loesch defends Bachmann's Islamophobic witchhunt against Huma Abedin

Notorious Islamophobic far-right radio host Dana Loesch is stepping up to the plate to make Pamela Geller, Brigitte Gabriel, Frank Gaffney, and the Islamophobia Lobby happy by demonizing Huma Abedin, a Deputy Chief of Staff and aide to Secretary of State (and possible 2016 Presidential contender) Hillary Clinton.


At least two prominent CNN personalities (Wolf Blitzer and Anderson Cooper) have grilled Michele Bachmann's baseless conspiracy theory of tying AbedinKeith EllisonGrover Norquist, and other Muslims to the Muslim Brotherhood. 


Nevertheless, TeaNN contributor Loesch repeated the false claim by Bachmann without challenge  on her radio show.


Last week, CNN contributor Dana Loesch claimed a State Department official has ties to the Muslim Brotherhood -- even as her CNN co-workers Wolf Blitzer and Anderson Cooper dismissed such charges as "McCarthy-like."



Loesch discussed Bachmann's Brotherhood infiltration theory with anti-Islam activist Brigitte Gabriel. When Gabriel said that it was "about time our government begins an investigation into the infiltration of the Muslim Brotherhood into our government," Loesch agreed, saying, "Absolutely," then added:

LOESCH: Looking especially at how some of our foreign policy has been handled, Hillary Clinton essentially siding with the Muslim Brotherhood candidate in Egypt, and then it was discovered that her top aide -- Huma Abedin -- is essentially a member of the female version of the Muslim Brotherhood, the Muslim Sisterhood. All of this -- it seems enough to me to pose questions as to why our government is becoming so close with a group that has been so hostile to the United States, has fought against the United States, has sided with terrorists, and is a very oppressive regime that believes in Sharia law.



From the 07.19.2012 edition of KFTK's The Dana Show:


Loesch then took her defense of Bachmann to Big Journalism.

The Republican establishment has long kept Michele Bachmann at arm's length and the exploitation of her simple inquiry into foreign policy matters (along with Louie Gohmert, Tom Rooney, Trent Franks, and Lynn Westmorland) is just another example. What's worse: they seem eager to work in tandem with the media to help push along the overdramatic and purposeful mischaracterization of the group's inquiry -- and set their sights specifically on Bachmann. 
The best way to assuage the congressional members' questions about Muslim Brotherhood infiltration is, of course, to prove that they are irrevocably without merit, which isn't done by attacking Bachmann ad hominem and challenging her character. Unfortunately, that's not the route the DC establishment chose.


At least a few high-level Republicans have stuck up for Abedin, such as Arizona Senator and 2008 GOP Presidential Candidate John McCain, Speaker John Boehner, and surprisingly, Congresscritter Jim Sensenbrenner.

Outright moron Loesch still lying about Sandra Fluke

Yet another edition of the Queen of Breitfartland badmouthing Georgetown law student Sandra Fluke.  Big "Journalism" editor-in-chief Dana Loesch falsely accusing REPUBLICANS such as Carly Fiorina (who lost the California Governor race to Democrat Jerry Brown and former HP CEO), Speaker of the House John Boehner, and Presidential Candidate and former US Senator from Pennsylvania Rick Santorum of "falling for the 'leftist media' narratives."

The Obama administration withered for several weeks under the intense criticism from Catholic leaders regarding the forced violation of religious liberty within the HHS mandate. In an effort to turn the tables, Democrats suggested that the GOP want to abridge women’s rights because Republicans expect women to obtain and pay for their own birth control. This afternoon John BoehnerCarly Fiorina, and Rick Santorum bravely provided cover for the President and the ridiculous narrative of “the war on women.” 
Each of them utterly failed in this response, but unlike Santorum, Boehner and Fiorina aren’t running a presidential campaign with the hopes of becoming the nominee so they can battle the media in the general. 
This reason right here is why Republicans defeat themselves: It doesn’t matter what Barack Obama’s record is if Republicans so willingly allow the media to reframe a debate about religious liberty as a fight over women’s rights. 
More have admonished Limbaugh’s description of Sandra Fluke than admonished a 30 year-old woman embarrassing herself before congress by testifying that she simply cannot stop getting it on and her inability to control her urges constitutes infringing upon everyone else for a bailout. 
I’ve not heard a single Republican politician stand up to the media narrative on this. Instead of projecting surrogate modesty towards Fluke, they project it towards Limbaugh, who is calling the truth for what it is. Fluke, a 30 year-old (presented as a 23 year-old college coed by the media) women’s activist/professional student, is likely not having monogamous sex with the same man approximately 2.74 times a day, every day, for three straight years (in order to satisfy the calculations about which she felt confident enough to present during a congressional testimony). 
The real war on women is being perpetuated upon us by our own sex; women who seek to place us under the control of a pimp-daddy government by demanding it cover all our needs, in exchange for control, or force private entities to do  so in its stead.

Ms. Loesch, you are an embarrassment to not only your own gender, but humanity, by defending the Oyxcontin-smuggling sexist Rush Limbaugh. And as for Limbaugh, he rightfully should be condemned for his vile, vicious, pervertedly obscene, and sexist remarks directed at Fluke. Even conservatives, such as Massachusetts Senator Scott Brown and former Bush 43 speechwriter David Frum, have condemned him as well.

On a side note, Loesch's boss and notorious hack Andrew Breitbart died Thursday morning.

RIP Andrew Breitbart (1969-2012).

Loesch falsely claims Hank Williams, Jr. was "booted off due to his viewpoints"

In last night's blogpost by Big Journalism's Smearer-In-Chief Dana Loesch, she (like the other right-wingers whining about it) falsely claims that country music singer and staunch Conservative Republican Hank Williams, Jr. "was silenced by the Obama bootlickers at ESPN for having courage to speak out against Obama."

ESPN was fine when their Las Vegas radio affiliate joked about, and seemingly advocated for, the rape of Sarah Palin just a few weeks ago.

From my perspective, Williams didn’t call Obama “Hitler”; rather he made an exaggerated comparison to the political conflict between Obama and Boehner. (Perhaps a more appropriate analogy would have been Reagan and Gorbachev.) It seems that progressives are doing more to call Obama “Hitler” with their accusations than Williams implied with his remark. Of course, only Williams himself can clarify that. Regardless, ESPN yanked him from tonight’s broadcast. By the way, what’s with progressives’ new sensitivity over comparing a president to Hitler?

Williams’s job would likely be safe had he done what Mike Tyson did on an ESPN radio affiliate and joked about Palin rape.


Typical for lowlife blogger Loesch to misrepresent the facts for her fanbase who believe that "those Liberals are persecuting us Conservatives." She has been waging a war on ESPN for its supposed "Liberal Bias." ESPN isn't Liberal-biased or Conservative-biased, you factless Breitbart hack! Bocephus was (and won't be) NOT silenced or blacklisted, unlike the Dixie Chicks for criticism of Bush and his corrupt Administration during the run-up to the Illegal Invasion of Iraq, who got blacklisted and boycotted by a huge majority of the core fans of Country music.

Here's the real no-spin facts on Hank Williams, Jr. being yanked from at least last night's ESPN Monday Night Football telecast (and possibly for good) featuring the Peyton Manning-less Indianapolis Colts vs. the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (which the Bucs won 24-17):

“While Hank Williams, Jr. is not an ESPN employee, we recognize that he is closely linked to our company through the open to Monday Night Football. We are extremely disappointed with his comments, and as a result we have decided to pull the open from tonight’s telecast.”
Although he is well within his rights to say bullcrap like that, he also is subject to being reprimanded or even fired by ESPN. I say that it is time to drop him completely.

TMZ.com reported that Bocephus's "Obama to Hitler" comparison comment "was misunderstood and distorted."


Williams Jr. says, "Some of us have strong opinions and are often misunderstood. My analogy was extreme – but it was to make a point. I was simply trying to explain how stupid it seemed to me - how ludicrous that pairing was."

He continues, "They’re polar opposites and it made no sense. They don’t see eye-to-eye and never will. I have always respected the office of the President.”

Williams Jr. adds, "Every time the media brings up the tea party it’s painted as racist and extremists – but there’s never a backlash – no outrage to those comparisons… Working class people are hurting – and it doesn’t seem like anybody cares. When both sides are high-fiving it on the ninth hole when everybody else is without a job – it makes a whole lot of us angry. Something has to change. The policies have to change.”

I still ain't buying that apology.

Here's the intro for the Monday Night Football theme song, called Are You Ready For Some Football?:


Here was its temporary replacement, Sister Hazel's performance of our National Anthem:

He was on Fixed Noise's Fox and Friends earlier yesterday in which he made the controversial comments.

From the 10.03.2011 edition of Fox News' Fox & Friends:


Transcript:

GRETCHEN CARLSON (co-host): I'd love to pick your brain about politics.

HANK WILLIAMS JR.: Yep.

CARLSON: All right. So, I'll start with an easy question, who do you like in the GOP race?

WILLIAMS: Nobody.

STEVE DOOCY (co-host): Nobody?

WILLIAMS: You remember the -- you remember the golf game they had, ladies and gentlemen?

DOOCY: Yeah?

WILLIAMS: Remember the golf game?

DOOCY: Boehner?

WILLIAMS: That was one of the biggest political mistakes ever.

CO-HOSTS: Why?

WILLIAMS: That turned a lot of people off. You know, watching, you know, it just didn't go over.

CARLSON: You mean when John Boehner played golf with President Obama?

WILLIAMS: Oh, yeah! Yeah. And Biden and Kasich, yeah. Uh-huh.

CARLSON: What did you not like about it? It seems to be a really pivotal moment for you.

WILLIAMS: Come on. Come on. It would be like Hitler playing golf with Netanyahu, OK?

CARLSON: OK.

WILLIAMS: Not hardly. In the country this shape is in, the shape this country's in, I mean, no, I don't think so.

BRIAN KILMEADE (co-host): Yeah, I don't understand that analogy, actually.

DOOCY: Well, it's -- it's out there.

WILLIAMS: Well, I'm glad you don't, brother, because a lot of people do. You know, they're the enemy. They're the enemy.

KILMEADE: Who's the enemy?

WILLIAMS: Obama! And Biden! Are you kidding? The Three Stooges.

DOOCY: That's only two.

[...]

CARLSON: I just want to say that we disavow any of those comments or analogies that he's made, at least I'm going to say that, disavow the analogy between Hitler and the president.


Even the ultra-conservative liar Gretchen Carlson said Williams, Jr. went too far with his
"Obama to Hitler" rhetoric.

UPDATE (10.06.2011): ESPN has pulled Bocephus for good.
