RoboShep tries to buy back some conservative street cred?

Lest we forget, Shep has a dark side:

My guess? This had little to do with ideology (even though he happens to be right in this instance), and everything to do with the hundreds of emails Shep’s been getting the last two weeks complaining about his heavy, fey blush, and asking his producers if it’s possible to find a setting for a widescreen TV that won’t exacerbate the stretch of those amphibian eyes of his.

Which, sorry about that, Shep. But sometimes I just can’t stop myself from hitting send.

    The last time I recall Shepard Smith getting that animated was earlier this year, when went off on Naomi Wolf, saying “don’t you ‘you, Fox’ me!”

    Shep is a Replicant. (Repli-can’t?)

    “There’s some serious decisions to be made” says Shep. Moe and Larry asked “Where’d your “m” go brother?”. Curly snored.

    Shep certainly has his dramatic moments. And sometimes, he’s even right.

  5. Comment by Bob Reed on 11/18 @ 5:27 pm #

    Shep is just tryin’ to show the dark lord O! (I denounce! myself already) that he is down with, you know, post-partisanship…

    And lookin’ to prove to Ailes, Brit, and Billo that he’s simply the proggy prodigal son…

    He’s right in what he’s saying in responding to the obsessive e-mailer, but he’s still a drama king.

    I’d say Shep’s the jail house b***ch of Fox News, but that would be an insult…to real jail house b***ches.

    ’twas the start of the resumption
    of the second gulf war
    The UN couldn’t say shit
    20,000 brave americans done for

    congress stood bravely giving
    authorization for hostilities to begin
    everyone was all for it
    that’s when shep came in

    be brave, be strong
    is what he advised us to do
    i watched him all the time
    and not all because of Lori Dhue

    then came the time of mission complete
    the left bravely chose another way
    it’s about gitmo, murderous marines and abu gurab
    and the brave dems bravely counseled, “run away!”

    then came katrina, cannibals and all
    that’s when our boy shep lost it
    never closer to tears was anyone
    upon discovering themselves in the shit

    so now shep’s passionate, over whatever pretext
    fame can be made with today’s juiciest bone
    not being outlaw he can’t pull it off
    but i do like his tone

  27. Comment by docob on 11/18 @ 8:18 pm #

    On the subject of the “preposterous”-ness of the claims of liberal bias, NPR was promoting Fresh Air w/ Terri Gross today as interviewing “anti-war activist” Bill Ayers. The image rehab continues. What’s next? Oprah? SNL? 60 Minutes?

    Shep is the lizard. The lizard we know is here, sucking our brains and eating our flesh.

    Just look at his eyes, man, the eyes…

    Makes me want to put on a flannel shirt and some sunglasses.

    You’ll see. You’ll ALL see.

    Have him crawl up thor’s ass. It’d prove your thesis and thor would enjoy it.

    Shep is the guy they should have cast as Spock in the new Star Trek movie. Just add ears…

    Is Shep a relative of James Carvill?

    “Makes me want to put on a flannel shirt and some sunglasses.”

    Me and you…WWF beat down in the alley…make me put the glasses on!

    Make me see!

    Then we’ll hit the TV station and fuck things up.

    P.S. Rowdy Rody is a god.

    Damn, that was ugly.

    So that’s what it’s like to watch some guy get beaten up by a girl.

    “So that’s what it’s like to watch some guy get beaten up by a girl.”

    No, no. That’s nothing. Come find me. My last crazy one video taped the our shit like it was Cloverfield.

    At the BBC, the Sheps are “newsreaders.” It does fit.

    Have I been banned?

    When I try to post, it lets me submit, but then there’s nothing there. If I’ve been booted, fine, but why? Am I really that awful?

    ccoffer, sometimes WP just decides to eat comments. It’s happened to me…. got caught in the spam filter for some reason.

    Ah, the nostalgia. Just went back to the Katrina post and was stunned to see my name attached to a comment that I don’t remember posting OVER THREE YEARS AGO. I’m getting LifeLock…

    Jeff, I posted this at Ace’s place, but think you might be interested in it for a post as well:

    “http://tinyurl.com/6rn7a2

    P.J. O’Rourke.

    Though I believe, in my broken record state, that he underestimates the cultural and institutional trends (i.e., the Gramscians and the Fabians) that blunted the Conservative assault.”

    “Have I been banned?”

    No, cuz thor is still here.

    “Am I really that awful?”

    I dunno. You just got here. It’s a weird/funny place. I mean, “testing. 123″ could have been really funny under the right circumstances.

  49. Comment by Proud Liberal Fascist on 11/19 @ 4:36 am #

    See… these are the parts of being a liberal fascism I never like. You sign up, thinking it’s going to be all: “See! Black People Like Us! You’re Racist on Account of Black People Never Voting for a Black Republican Ever Except for that Guy From Las Vegas Who’s Column Makes My Computer Crash That One Time.” But then, you have to deal with yes, that one time, as a liberal fascist, you have to defend Shep Smith. And it’s hard. This is why I was assigned Protein Wisdom, and the better, more equipped, more liberal-lly endoctrinated trolls got Red State and Protein Wisdom, where the real conservatives are. But yeah… Shep Smith. He’s… um, a conservatiive, because, um… er… yeah. Because, on that one show, that one time, he told… that one Republican… that one time? How wrong he was? Um, sure. Come back to me tomorrow, I’m sure I’ll be able to explain to you how fascist the right wing is. OOOOHHHHH!!

  50. Comment by Proud Liberal Fascist on 11/19 @ 4:37 am #

    AND IT’LL BE FUN! Because I’ll do it in a post that’ll say how fascist the left wing is!! And we’ll call each other fascist! Because it makes sense! CONSERVATIVE HAKA OUTLAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!q!!!

    Wierd, but all these newscasters use so much Botox, it’s nearly impossible to tell when something is truly bothering them. Just sayin’.

  54. Comment by MarkD on 11/19 @ 9:15 am #

    He’s the twit who threw the tantrum over a parking space, isn’t he? That was before he lied on the air from New Orleans. That guy.

    The Brits and the Japanese have the right idea. They’re newsreaders. OK to look at, good diction, hired.

    I say rotate them every couple of years before they get the idea that they are the news. They just read the news.
