This afternoon, Kelly invited New York Post columnist — and regular Fox contributor — Kirsten Powers to debate the importance of this story. Kelly bemoaned that “no one seems to give a darn” about the allegations promulgated by former Bush DoJ lawyer J. Christian Adams. The conservative activist claims that the Obama Justice Department dropped voter intimidation charges against the New Black Panther Party due to racial considerations. Contrary to the claims, the Obama DoJ has issued an injunction against the member of the NBPP who was seen engaging in voter intimidation tactics, prohibiting him “from displaying a weapon within 100 feet of any Philadelphia polling place through 2012.”

Powers effectively dismantled the faux scandal for what it is, telling Kelly, “You can put me in the same category of people who don’t really give a darn.” “You don’t seem to know what you’re talking about,” Kelly immediately responded, growing more enraged as the two wrestled, jabbed, and bickered over the facts:

POWERS: The minute I challenge you, you tell me I don’t know what I’m talking about?

KELLY: Because you don’t.

POWERS: You just want people to come on and just agree with you –

KELLY: No, I want informed people.

POWERS: — that what you’ve been doing and the way you’ve been completely doing the “scary black man thing.”

45. Jon Stewart
As usual Jon Stewart gets the significance of the gaggle of toxic blonds at Fux noise correct when he called them "the meanest sorority in the world".I'm becoming more convinced that the first time you register as a Republican an operative of that party contacts you and offers you a rebate or discount on a simultaneous lobotomy and asshole transplant.If it's successful you're accepted for membership in the party, and if it's really successful you're invited to join the teabaggers or run for public office or both, and if it's really, really successful Fux noise contacts you and offers you a position as a newsreader/analyst/commentator which is the same thing at Fux.

Typical faux bullshit. "You don't agree with me, you are bringing up actual facts, so I will talk over you and threaten to cut your mic." Stfu Megyn Kelly. Could anyone blame Ms. Powers if she said "never again" about appearing on that piece of shit network?

17. The case was decided Jan. 7 2009, correct me if I'm wrong but Obama wasn't sworn
in until Jan 20 2009, holder wasn't confirmed until Feb, so how is this Obama's doing?

22. Because ...
It is President's Obama's doing because Fox "news" says, it's his doing. You and I, but more importantly, Fox "News" knows that their audience will not catch the "dates problem" on their own ... and won't believe it when it is brought to their attention.

24. Kirsten Powers' main point was about the hysteria on Faux over one case
They have been going on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on about this for the past 2 weeks or so. It's as if there's nothing else going in America and the rest of the world. No need to list what else is going on, just have a look at the first 10 pages of http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topics&forum=102">LBN.

What makes it even more ridiculous is that it didn't actually have anything to do with Obama or Holder anyway, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=evA1LcDyo2c">as Keith points out (thanks to plcdude for the link).

41. These idiots are going to say they have evidence to impeach, but are the minority.
They will spew day and night, that Obama should be impeached, but they arent listened to. Any half assed insinuation, no matter how strained, will do. If we dont back our man, we are going to suffer slander changing history.

(It's spelled "Megan", honey.)

Just to confirm: people actually watch and enjoy crap like this? It's like the Battle Of the Bimbos. This time, one of the bimbos was actually right - usually everyone on the Fox "News" screen is an idiot or a suckup.

32. I keep hearing the refrain from Dr. Demento paraphrased: "And They're Coming To Take Me Away Ha Haa"
Where Life Will Beautiful All The Time
And I'll be happy to see
Those nice young men
In their sheets and hoods
And they'll be taking the blackies away, ha haaa.

They cooked our food
They cleaned our house
And this is how they pay us back
By taking White House away?
Haa.

Jeebus, can FOX get any more obvious? They might as well have the Grand Dragon as an anchor.

When do journalists get involved in the stories they report?? Why is she yelling at her guest?? Could it be that Ms Kelly is a Republican plant and she just reads GOP talking points each day?? I'm sick of these bimbos being considered media. They are an awful presentation of what a true media is and should be.

Foxnews is a hideous organization, full of sales people, trying selling the policy's of the super rich to the super poor, in order to garner their votes come election time.

Even if I agreed with these people (which I certainly do not), I could not watch this channel. It's always people talking/yelling over other. There is never thoughtful debate or discussion. It's simply just painful. I can not believe that people actually enjoy watching this stuff.
