Alex Jones sinks to a new low, calling Michelle Obama ‘the First Tranny’

Right-wing radio host Alex Jones posted a report online today in which he urged listeners to seriously consider the truth behind Joan Rivers’ statement that Barack Obama is the first gay president because his wife, Michelle, is a “tranny.”

“Well, Joan Rivers talked about it the other day, and now it’s an international news story,” he said. “The question is, ‘Who is Michelle Obama? Is she really a woman? Is she a man?’”

“Now, I’m not drawing any conclusions here,” Jones continued, “but I know this — it’s fair to question anything and everything this administration says. I can’t think of an administration in history that’s been caught with such a perfect record of everything they say and do being a lie or a fraud.”

“These people are the authors of such tyranny that they shouldn’t whine and complain when the public doesn’t believe anything they’re saying — especially when every time I look at ‘Michelle’ or ‘Michael’ Obama, the First Lady, or First Tranny, something doesn’t look right.”

1. He's a too wet to step on

And too low to kick.

I just might send him a hand written note stating that.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

2. I'm sure the future ex Mrs. Jones is lovely. nt

3. Why do people on the left even listen to this guy?

Listening to him and repeating the garbage he says is just giving him a platform.

[ChisolmTrailDem]

16. For the same reason people slow down to see a car or train wreck. nt

[hack89]

18. He is popular with the 9/11 Truth crowd. nt

[dilby]

24. The same group of MIHOP and LIHOP people that were all over these boards after 9/11?

Do Democrats really listen to him?

[Tarheel_Dem]

26. Thank you, and agreed. It's the reason I stopped watching Rev. Al's show. All Fox, all the time.

[The Traveler]

4. Not for the first time, I want to smite him. n/t

[Coventina]

5. Even if she is: SO WHAT!?!?!

Now, I don't think that Michelle Obama is a transsexual.

My only point is, so what? Why should anyone care? It's nobody's business if she is, or Barak is, or Joan Rivers is.

(why anybody would take a joke by a comedian as something to run with as a news story just shows what an idiot this guy is).

ON EDIT: I have to continue to say, what does this guy expect to happen? If Michelle Obama was (and again, it's just nuttery to suggest that she is, and homophobic, and misogynist, and a whole host of other hateful things) what then? Can Obama be impeached for having a transsexual wife? I don't see any law against that. This guy is a.....well, any word I can think of would probably get the post hidden. He is beneath contempt.

6. In other news, Alex Jones talks crazy. nt

[conservaphobe]

7. I hope him and all of his listeners are monitored 24/7.

Frightening bunch of people.

[Turbineguy]

8. It's a contest.

like limbo.

[m-lekktor]

9. ugh. yeah, transexuals are so icky, how dare he and joan imply this!1

the underlying transphobia in all of this is sad. we still have a long ways to go apparently.

[MineralMan]

10. Moron! Where does he think those daughters came from?

I do not understand why anyone would post anything Alex Jones says on DU. The only people who listen to what he says are also morons. Morons abound, but we can safely ignore moronic bullshit of this low caliber.

Let Alex Jones attempt sexual intercourse with himself.

[DonViejo]

12. Because I (and many others) believe it important to know just wth...

Jones is pulling, e.g., read the article at this link and see the raft of shit he's stirring up for those kids flocking to the border:

WATCH: Michiganders panic over plan to house immigrant kids, call for border minefield
http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/07/10/watch-michiganders-panic-over-plan-to-house-immigrant-kids-call-for-border-minefield/

If you "do not understand why anyone would post anything Alex Jones says on DU," why post a comment on a thread that so puzzles you?

[MineralMan]

13. Why post a comment? Because I can.

Why would I not post a comment?

You apparently don't like my comment. That's unfortunate, I suppose, but is not one of the considerations I include in my decision whether or not to post.

Calls for a "border minefield" are a similar category of moronic crap that doesn't deserve to be aired. It will not happen. It's patently bullshit. I'm sure I could find someone saying that illegal border crossers should be mowed down with .50 caliber machine guns, too. I wouldn't share that on DU, however.

You post; others reply. That's how it works on DU.

[DonViejo]

19. I look forward to reading your comments if one of those Jones Jerks...

decides to stone a bus full of those kids, attacks a facility aiding the kids, or worse, fire bombs or blows up one.

You're damn right I dislike your comment, "I do not understand why anyone would post anything Alex Jones says on DU." Typical hand wringing about a post and then commenting to your heart's content, "because I can."

[MineralMan]

21. And if those things happen, you will have an opportunity to do so.

I'm not wringing my hands. I'm making a suggestion: Don't give Alex Jones any more publicity. That's my suggestion. You're free to ignore my suggestion, of course, just as I'm free to make it.

A veces, ser viejo es sólo ser viejo.

28. Sorry, I lived through a time, in Boston, during the time of busing...

When the anti-busing crowd "talked" about stoning the buses and/or the kids arriving in their lily-white neighborhoods to attend school. Too many people pooh-poohed the entire "rumor," saying, oh they'd never do anything like that, those people are parents too! They wouldn't hurt a kid! And then they did stone the buses filled with elementary school students.

[MineralMan]

30. I didn't say bad things don't happen.

What was Alex Jones calling for by calling Michelle Obama a "tranny?" How does that relate to people throwing rocks at a school bus? The two things are not related.

My point is that publicizing the rants of morons even more widely does not accomplish what you think it does. What it does is just publicize the rants even more widely, and nothing more.

So, Alex Jones makes yet another moronic statement. His followers will hear it, and they will attempt to spread it. Not a thing anyone can do to stop that. However, people can and should avoid adding to its distribution, in my opinion. There is nothing actionable about Alex Jones calling the First Lady names. It's just moronic and ugly. It threatens nobody. It's just ugly.

Now, if Alex Jones was calling for people to throw stones at children on school buses, I'd be all for publicizing that, since it's a direct call to action by that toad-like excuse for a human being. If there are threats, then people can mobilize to attempt to stop them from happening.

But, spreading ugly name calling by this moron accomplishes nothing but to spread his vileness further. Go Google the title of your post, in quotes. See what I mean? Maybe you don't. I don't know. Most of the search results are posts like yours, posted on places that are calling out Alex Jones. Still...it does nothing but spread his words. Why would anyone want to spread his words?

31. Have a really, really GREAT day, MM

[MineralMan]

32. Hey, thanks! I already am.

[DonViejo]

33. Awesome! Me too! n/t

[Tarheel_Dem]

27. FWIW, MM, I completely & unabashedly agree with the sentiment in your post. Giving a platform to...

idiocy only lowers you to their level. I think it's why Air America failed, they promised to drive the debate, and wound up rehashing every vile thing said by some nuts on the radio, and Fox News. If I wanted to hear or see that shit, I have a radio and a teevee tuner.

[MineralMan]

29. Thanks.

[geomon666]

11. Alex Jones is a pig, almost in the literal sense.

"every time I look at ‘Michelle’ or ‘Michael’ Obama, the First Lady, or First Tranny, something doesn’t look right.”

Probably the color of her skin, right Alex? You look like a polished turd, you fucking rotund Limbaugh crack baby.

[mnhtnbb]

14. They weren't happy with the birth certificate produced by POTUS, now they want

the birth certificate of FLOTUS.

Geeze, can't they find something else to talk about?

[Rex]

15. Fuck him...Alex Jones is a crapstain on humanity.

I hate that guy. If his life depended on his next sentence being truthful, he would be deader then dogshit.

[redqueen]

17. What a vicious piece of shit rightwing asshole.

[Warren DeMontague]

20. the guy who thought the shooting of 20 schoolkids was a "false flag" to take hiz gunz away

he's a turd with a microphone.

[SidDithers]

22. Bookmarking for the next time someone tries to use Alex Jones as a source at DU...

So that I can show them just what a piece of shit used car salesman really is.

Sid

[MerryBlooms]

23. The guy is a kook.

[Initech]

34. He really is a piece of shit.

[Hugabear]

35. Scary thing is, I know people who take everything he says as gospel

If Obama were to say the sky is blue, Alex Jones would argue that the sky is really red, and his sycophants would believe him.

[Gothmog]

36. Who cares? Alex Jones is pure slime

[H2O Man]
