Fox News' Megyn Kelly argued that Santa Claus should no longer be white man

[Sammy]

Ya it was just her smile...It had nothing to do with her earning a B.A. in Political Science from Syracuse University or the J.D. she earned from  Albany Law School where she graduated with honors and served as the Editor of the Albany Law School...Ya it was just her smile... :)

Sounds like Obama. Yet everyone that watches her hates him. So much for education mattering a damn.

That was presumptuous of me to not look at Megyan Kelly's pedigree, and to think that she was hired for only her good looks. For that I am wrong, and I apologize. But that proves my point I guess.

 

I can see my mistakes and apologize for them, while Megyan could say something completely idiotic and instead she blames the media. What she said was ridiculous and in the reality is "who gives a shit what color Santa is!!!!"...  Does it really matter?  I guess for Megyan is does. 

 

That's what sad about this, is that Santa should transcend racial or color boundries. If some kid wants to think Santa is black. let him think that!!  Is it our job to correct them!!  Good grief...

So actually comparing the intelligence of Maddow to Kelly? Hahahahaha... I'm pretty sure MSNBC hired Maddow for her insight, Kelly and Fox.. Her smile.. She should keep to that, and Fox viewers should remember that.. They have a habit of hiring attractive women that can smile and read a story... Looks at Hasselback.

 

As Bart has so eloquently put it, I'll put Kelly's intelligence level up against Rachael Maddcow any day of the week. Rachael is a Rhodes Scholar who earned her doctorate in Philosophy while at Oxford, which as anybody could surmise just from listening to her babble, she doesn't have a clue what is going on in the real world.

 

Kelly is smart as hell, knows what she's talking about and looks good doing it.

[Sammy]

The one that made the black santa thing in the first place would have gone unnoticed unless she brought it up. So you pick out an obscure comment few people even know about, raise people into a frenzy, and then blame others when you get called on it.

 

A cartoon last night I saw while flipping channels had not one but two black santas. A show children watch depending on whether or not parents let their kids watch Fox cartoons. Something on the other hand that millions of people saw. Where is the outrage?

I suspect your thinking with your dick Steve..lol  Plus your letting your political beliefs cloud your judgement.

LOL, actually Ter, I've watched Rachel many more times than Kelly, only because Rachel is kind of like slowing down to look at a car accident on the side of the road. It makes you sick, but you simply can't look away.

 

I'll take the clouded judgement comment as a compliment. You've turned such behavior into an art form, (especially while trying to convince yourself that you you are a moderate) and I consider it high praise coming from the master.

I'll second that. Never known Pete to ride the middle of the rail yet, but that's just MY clouded judgement talking. I'll agree with Bart too, read the credentials of Fox's employees.

[PimpedOutPete]

Oh I am pretty sure I am Steve considering I voted GOP twice in the past 4 elections, but I not supprised you think Im not. 

 

As for Megyan and Rachel.  Rachel's political beliefs are much more left of mine but she makes a convincing argument, that I can respect. Megyan? I am not convinced and this is a prime example of that.

 

Seriously Steve, if a black child came up to and said he thought Santa was black would u go out of your way to tell him he was wrong? The reality is who cares!

If you would have just stated that to begin with and avoided the failed attempt at bashing a FNC employee you would have found everyone agreeing with you... :)

[Sammy]

More to the point, would Kelly? Or only on TV?

[PimpedOutPete]

I think I apologized for that Bart, or is your eye sight as bad as mine...lol

Come on Ter, voting for a GOP candidate in an election doesn't make you a moderate. It just means that you temporarily had a sane moment that I'm sure is long gone.  By the way what election was that, local mayor at your in-laws home town? Considering who was running in the last 4 presidential elections I know you're full of shit if you claim you voted GOP on any of them.

 

If you actually bothered to watch an unedited version of the FOX video, you'll notice her comments are about an article written by a black woman who said that Sants Claus should no longer be white.  The Santa we all know here in North America is a completely fictional character loosely based on Sinterklaas from Europe. Over there he has a dark skinned side-kick named Zwarte Piet, but to my knowledge the fictional character has always been portrayed as white man. If people of other races want to portray Santa as having darker skin, a shaved head or 6 eyeballs, I could care less. But the article Kelly was referring to was stating that the character we all know as Santa "should no longer be portrayed as white". In other words, change how we celebrate Santa because blacks are offended.  That is what Kelly had an issue with.

[little_old_man]

"For that I am wrong, and I apologize. But that proves my point I guess."

 

 

We call that a back-handed apology here in the states Ter.  Apologizing for something while still claiming to be correct for saying it is something Obama has gotten really good at, and we all know how popular he is right now.   

[PimpedOutPete]

Maybe its best to withdraw from this conversation... Having to defend my political beliefs or proving them was  not what I thought this conversation was about... Sorry guys.

i refrain from comment on this topic as this is and can be very political topic...or demographic whichever category u want to put this in...i personally think this topic shouldve and only been in political forums...as i one time posted an interesting post on school in texas banning the rebel flag even tho texas was confederate state at one time..and soooo many had complained bout it and topic was deleted...just saying

[Angel]

I think this topic is ok right here.  I dont think this is political, may involve religion a lil but not much.  Its more of a matter, someone made a statement and people are talking.  I dont think it was cool but thats my opinion, I will keep this short and sweet, I am with Pete on this , but I dont wanna be called for saying something "political".    However, news is more enjoyable when the people reporting it, actually know what they hell they are talking about  I am not watching the news to find someone sexy to look at,  just saying......lol

[Noears711XI]

I am with Pete and Angel on this besides I like three ways. What were we talking about oh yeah the best Satan ever LMAO

 

[Bogleg]

Bah who fucking cares?

She is just like Bill O'reilly. They thinks they area smarter than everybody. They talks out both sides of their mouth and only want to appease their audience. Careful not to offend certain groups and being dishonest about it by giving out passes to groups or individuals and not expressing their true allegiance to certain ideologies. That is why Megyn was moved to Sean's old spot. They both play more to the middle. When Sean just annoys everyone a bunch of truths as well. Dishonest News!

 

I miss Brit Hume. He had the most commonsense of the bunch. Brett is not bad but he replaced Brit.

 

In other words... screw Megyn Kelly. Smart girl but annoying as shit and screwed up on some of her views.

 

I lost all respect for her when she said some horrible things about that Stenographer who served the Senate for a very long time. She had a break down when they were voting to reopen the government and she started chanting thing in religious context and had to be escorted out of the chamber.

 

We all should be screaming our lungs out.... that lady is my hero. She is one American who had balls to let them all know they were fucking shit up in a big way.
