Its only a right until it gets in the way of their politics apparently.
Why even have primaries? Sounds like a smoked-filled room from the days of yore. And if they don’t like the open primaries, change the way the work.
Scottie Huges of the Tea Party News Network (part of the blogofear, I guess) says that the Republican Party establishment have opened a Pandora’s Box (I love the smell of irony in the morning) and that the Party is broken.
Gee, I wonder why. And what is that in your pipe, Sherlock?
If you’re reduced to hoping Reince Priebus will be your savior, well then …
Old Penis Brie Cure, or as Colbert called him, Penis Rice-a-Roni [not an actual anagram]. I could never understand his re-election/appointment. Steele had a few judgement lapses but the party gained seats under him. Other than that black thing, he had/has more on the ball and is mmuuuucccchhhhh more entertaining.
Governor Paul LePage of Maine met with sovereign citizens group at least eight times.
FOX News thinks their reporter’s hijinks at the National Organization for Women conference are hysterical, especially since he was escorted out by the police.
Weren’t primary elections invented to replace those?
I don’t believe this counts as a stupid republican idea of the day, except perhaps obliquely. This is exactly what The Daily Show does (except TDS is actually clever). It’s dumb and juvenile, but it’s clearly an attempt at satire.
Fox is a comedy show?
Well it’s obviously not news. What else is there?
Point.
No, but unless I misunderstood the situation, he wasn’t there as part of any news broadcast. Identifying him as “Fox News Correspondent” is a bit misleading. Here’s a quote from another source:
So it seems he was there as part of The O’Reilly Factor, not Fox News. It’s still a dumb, juvenile stunt, but it’s not stupid, if you see my distinction. If you, like this guy, think that the “war on women” is a joke, mocking it and referring t it as a literal war is clearly satire.
I don’t agree with him at all, but I see where he’s coming from, is what I’m saying. 
The O’Reilly Factor is produced and broadcast exclusively for Fox News. But yes, Watters’ segments on the show are supposed to be “satirical”. Pretty sure no Daily Show correspondent has been cited for trespassing, though.
Pretty sure TDS correspondents usually – not always, perhaps, but usually – make it clear in advance where they’re from and what they’re trying to do.
It would be funny if it were funny.
It wouldn’t surprise me one bit if a backroom meeting of the O’Reilly production staff decided to copy Stewart’s shtick and this is the result.
His satire certainly isn’t funny or insightful, I’ll give you guys that. Although if that was a requirement, the Daily Currant would be long gone!
Isn’t Watters the dude O’Reilly uses to stalk and harass people under pretext of conducting ambush “interviews”? I could swear I heard about him doing something really, painfully ugly a few years ago. My google-fu doesn’t seem up to finding out what it was, though.
That article about Watters is cringe worthy on multiple levels. I hope he brings up the same “hurr durr what is a metaphor” logic when Fox is complaining about the War on Christmas.
I’m sure Watters said it in the most condescending way possible, and I don’t call women I don’t know gals just because I know some don’t like because of reasons (and I don’t know how well it really works without a Southern accent), but really, really? Ugh.
Just trying to imagine the reverse if some dude objected to being called a “guy.” I’m a man, dammit!
The Daily Show made Steele into a muppet. And he at least had the balls to talk to Jon Stewart face-to-face. The closest thing Priebus has to balls is that he is kind of nuts. And from what I can tell he has less personality than Scott Walker, which is a feat unto itself.
