Plans coming together
Oh, how Fox & Friends newly minted insanity disguised as facts always end up coming together:
Right-wing media figures have seized on comments Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid made linking unemployment to a rise in domestic violence by suggesting that if he loses his re-election bid, then Reid, whose mother was a victim of domestic abuse, will subsequently become abusive toward his wife.
Other than Harry Reid being factually correct, this goes beyond mere talking points. The same day Steve Doocy decides to say that Democrat Harry Reid will abuse women if he loses reelection in Nevada the actual Republican Governor of Nevada Jim Gibbons had this revealed:
The federal civil suit was brought by Chrissy Mazzeo, a cocktail waitress who says that Gibbons assaulted and groped her in a parking lot after spending hours drinking at a Las Vegas restaurant…on February 5 of this year, the governor was deposed for four hours … [d]uring the deposition, Gibbons claimed that he hasn’t been sexually intimate with any woman since 1995, and that he’s “living proof that you can survive without sex for that long.”
So he couldn’t have abused a woman because he’s sexually frustrated…oh THAT never happens.
Yet, Republican Jim Gibbons is never mentioned on Fox & Friends.
Funny that.
