If you told me that this interview was staged by Occupy Wall Street, I'd probably believe it. Not because of the points he made, but because he was able to make them. That reporter was unusually polite for Fox News.


Griff Jenkins is one of the worst offenders at Faux News.

Griff Jenkins is such a weasel. I always think of that Modest Mouse song when I see him: "Gonna hit you on the face gonna punch you in your
glasses. Oh no!"

I just got this e-mail from his campaign newsletter:

Dear ---,

On Wednesday, Fox News's professional stalker Griff Jenkins stalked me all day, and then ambushed me, just so he could get some footage of me asking him to make an appointment. And sure enough, Bill O'Reilly put that footage on the air, and I was deluged with angry phone calls from Republican voters who think it's my job to be at Fox's beck and call. This is not surprising. The Republican Party is a now a wholly owned subsidiary of Fox News.

Well, I won't be taken down by Fox's weapons of mass distraction. I'm focused on saving lives and saving money. On Wednesday, on the House floor, I read the names and stories of some of the 44,000 Americans who die each year from a lack of health care.

I did this to honor them. These unnecessary, senseless deaths. That's real news, which Fox didn't spend one minute on. Instead, Fox News hectored me about whether I hurt Dick Cheney's feelings. Enough is enough.

Please join me and show Fox News and the Republican Party that we won't be bullied by them. Show them what's important to us: saving lives. On November 2, one year before my reelection, we will have a "money bomb," where progressives from all over the country are joining to support our reelection. Please pledge to our campaign here:

These Republican bullies are opposed to the change that America wants, America needs, and America voted for last year. 88% of Fox News viewers voted for George W. Bush in 2004. Fox News sends a memo to its mouthpieces every day, giving them "talking points" designed to damage Democrats. And they call this "news"!

I am a strong voice for justice, and so they stalk me.

Let's stand together and fight back.

Please show your support at http://www.CongressmanWithGuts.com.

More than 3,000 people have pledged over $200,000 for our November 2 "money bomb," one year before the next election. Show them that the people, united, will never be defeated. Show them that we will have the support we need to get reelected and keep fighting for a better America. Please join us.

It is time to get greed off the agenda. It's time to put conscience back on the agenda. Fox News has a perpetual news blackout on people without health coverage who die from it, people with health insurance who don't get the care they need, seniors who can't pay for the medicine they need to stay alive -- in short, everything that actually matters in the lives of ordinary people. Fox News has a news blackout on everything but fake tea party protests and ambushes in the halls of Congress. Enough is enough.

Thank you for helping us stay focused and save American lives.

Courage,

Alan Grayson

These FOX reporters can't complain, all things considered. Think about what the French did to the collaborators after the collapse of the Vichy regime. Still, it would be nice to shave all their heads.


Eeeeerm ...
Dear Kronos, don't you think that french people's reputation is bad enough ?
This part of our history isn't something we're proud of. Blind vengeance, mainly perpetrated by people who have collaborated themselves or been passive. Many shavers have been shaved afterwards, in the same vicious circle of hate.

They've got all of Europe to emigrate to if they want government to take care of them.

Well, Europe is getting worse, but in a more subtil way

And actually, as a Real French that I am, I'm preparing myself to the next invasion by learning to speak Russian

I love that song.

You do it to yourself. You do. Just you and no one else.

Shouldn't these unlovable hippies be at work?
Oh. Right.


Yeah, people shouldn't ever practice their right to peaceably assemble. Fuck that John Milton asshat.

These "Americans" should just sit quietly in their cubicles like the good little worker-bee's Jesus designed them to be, and take it up the ass from the ownership-class.

You're right "quantum". Fuck our 1st amendment right!!!

Because someone needs to hold my popcorn.

Time out. I'm all for a protest/riot, but why bring your little kid there?

Same for why bring to the movie theaters for rated R movies.

Upvote for showing the left wing's true opinion about the freedom of speech.

Quantumushroom, you know that sock puppets are not allowed. Thanks.

"Griff Jenkins" sounds like such a fake name. This guy is a joke.

Don't mock Jenkins. He's a veteran of the Iraq War. He was stationed in the Gulf with the Yacht Force, Squadron Polo. That man is a goddamned hero!

I think they were going to give him a purple heart, but it didn't match his Members Only jacket.

Good ol' Griff Jenkins. Could they have found a dweebier,
"just stepped off my dad's yacht" looking stereotype?
