Faux "news'" phony "Dr" Ablow gets slammed big time.

But he'll laugh at this all the way to the bank.

Medical Experts Denounce Fox News' Dr. Keith Ablow As 'Shameful' 'Narcissistic Self-Promoter'

Fox News' resident psychiatrist Dr. Keith Ablow was vilified by medical experts as a narcissist blowhard and an embarrassment to the profession and shameful that he has a platform.

The AP contacted several high ranking medical experts and asked them to comment on the behavior of Fox News' resident psychiatrist Keith Ablow and the results were what you might expect from real professionals. Ablow, who is part of Fox' Medical A-team has always been more worried about being an Ann Coulter pundit rather than a real psychiatrist and his behavior reflects that view.

He's called for an American Jihad against freedom haters around the world. Called Michelle Obama fat because she's trying to fight against obesity in America. Says Obama wants America to dissolve. Told a group of tea partiers that they had been "enslaved" by taxes and "slaves always revolt. Demanded that V.P. Biden be examined for dementia. Said that LGBT adoption would lead to polygamy, and then self diagnosed the President without every meeting him.

Ablow gives even the bonkers ones a bad name. He's so far out there I wonder how he manages to get through a day without flying off into space.

Apparently he got through med school, internship, and a psychiatry residency without ever knowing what paranoia and projection are.

I'd feel sorry for the poor bastard but all I want to do is bend him over and give him an arse full of antipsychotic drugs, try to get through to him once the paranoid ideation was blunted.
