      If we stop counting you as a TV talking head then maybe you won't exist either...

      Does a pair of legs count as two?

        A pair of legs counts for an awful lot on Fox. A head of very blonde hair does, too.

      So, instead of discussing the obvious question as to why, when illegal immigration is apparently becoming less prevalent, the issue has continued to seem a disproportionately more urgent topic, their choice is rather to postulate on the possibility of the numbers being manipulated. Leave it to fox to take a serious issue and find any way they can to completely miss the bigger picture in order to peddle some inorganic theory just for the sake of enraging their viewers with completely useless morning talk show banter.

      It is also never mentioned that this problem started under Reagan, giving millions of illegal immigrants amnesty in 1986. The problem exploded after that, it was exactly was corporate America wanted, cheap labor. They act like this problem just happened. They did it on purpose. Now the problem is just a wedge issue to vote for republicans, who have no intention of actually doing anything about it. This problem has very easy solutions, they just don't want to fix it.

        Don't forget, along with the amnesty, the concerted effort to get rid of as many unions and union members as possible.

        St. Ronnie should be mentioned every time wingnuts start complaining about illegal immigration, and he should be remembered this Labor Day weekend as Al Qaeda is remembered on 9/11.

      Never fear, FOXtards... once your boys take over the government again, they'll drive the country so far into the ground that not even Mexicans will want to come here any more.

      I watched this a few times. Love the double 'Wha?' when KillMe goes off script. Then the big sigh of relief when it is revealed (through his astute, humble theory) that this will be a 'political issue'...oohhhhhh....'yea, yea' (heads nodding - now we're back on track!)

        Whenever anybody goes off script at Fox the flop sweat starts like Albert Brooks in "Broadcast News." There is so much truth against them, it's difficult to keep it at bay at times.

      The two "Wha's" are quite different.

      Carlson truly is bewildered by Kilmead's comment. Even lost, for a moment. Afterall, it is an big issue, isn't it? She clearly believes and subscribes to the Fox speaking points.

      But, the other host looks off camera, with a smirk, as to acknowledge to the off camera people, "what's happening here, can you believe he just said that?" He gets it.
