DAILY OUTRAGE

In a segment on the Terri Schiavo case, Sean Hannity referred to Florida neurologist Dr. William Hammesfahr as a "Nobel Prize-nominated doctor" eight times in a one hour broadcast. Dr. Hammesfahr was "nominated" by Rep. Mike Bilirakis (R-FL), who "is not qualified to make a valid nomination under the Nobel rules."

1. Well, facts are a rare occurance on Faux.
In the last four going on five years the truth has mattered less and less to the rethugs.

2. Al Franken just took him apart on his show...
This 'Dr.' is less qualified to diagnos Terry than I am.

He's unethical.

9. Franken said he will be on Scarborough tonight. Scarborough
and Faux have been absolutely shameless spreading lies and misinformation.

The media's failure to call people on their lies, continuing to perpetuate discredited stories over and over again while blatantly ignoring the legal record, and providing platforms for people who have been discredited reminds me a lot of the Swift Liars fiasco.

3. "Appeal to misleading authority" is a well-known logical fallacy.

4. This "doctor" says that he has cured people worst off than Terry!
Really? Where are they? I'm sure the world would love to see his handy work.

7. I'll nominate you if you nominate me, it'd look good on resumes
Think of it, next job you apply for: "I was nominated for the Nobel Prize".

11. I had myself nominated last night -
In the category of 'preserving human superconscious continuity through the grooming of small pets.'

It only took $3.40 in US postal fees!

"So, Dr. Eldritch... you were a Nobel Prize nominee... and you recommend vehicular-mounted weaponry to cut down on rush - hour traffic?"

"Oh, absolutely Sean. You see - by keeping an edge in highway time-management, the average American can improve productivity by as much as 3.14%."

Hannity- "Well that is fascinating... and I thought just having a .44 in the glove box was a good Idea.
Thank you Nobel Prize nominated Dr. Eldritch."

Me, "Thank you Sean."

16. Thank you so much
I'd like to thank all the little people who made this moment possible. It is such an honor even to be considered for such an award.

15. So? Bu$h was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.
That makes Bu$h a "Nobel Peace Prize-nominated war-monger and killer." There is way too much irony in that for my diet.


Oxymoron
