This is too funny, mostly because, as is de rigueur for Fox News, the “analyst” Monica Crowley doesn’t even have her facts straight. Watch as she bemoans the Obama administration’s announcement that they will no longer defend DOMA in court by claiming that they also will not enforce it. Uh, no, Monica. I know reading comprehension is not part of the application process at Fox, but come on.
Note also that she refers to the president as “Mubarak Obama,” and see it in context with what I said about Mike Huckabee earlier. Wingnuts do not follow normal lines of analytical thought, instead choosing to throw out dogwhistle words, even if they’re not related to each other, in order to scare their couch-bound followers.

My brother Adam is a lawyer and has assured me that the Executive branch is entirely within its rights to refrain from enforcing a law that it believes is unconstitutional.
If the commentators (or anyone) supports DOMA, fine; make a reasoned, rational argument that explains your position. Instead, they display that ever-present tell-tale sign that their position is not rooted in fact: they use pejoratives.
The Bush administration forgot about torture laws. Fox must have forgot about that.
Why do I have Julie Brown’s “Cuz I’m a Blonde” running through my head?
The crazy is strong in this one. Slides straight from “queer-lover” to “crypto-Muslim” without batting an eyelash.
