I watched Fox News for five hours last night

As Obama's victory became undeniable, Brit Hume moved beyond grief and anger with Karl Rove. And Juan Williams justified his existence.

    Yeah I watched Fixed Noise too

    I was waiting all night for the mass hari-kari to commence.

    Instead, we were treated to a bunch of tomfoolery. Karl Rove brought in a batch of his special Fox News cookies, Fred Barnes kept blabbering on about card-check, Irving's son spun himself dizzy over Palin's popularity (or lack thereof) with the electorate-at-large.

    Then there was Juan Williams. FNC very own token, choking back emotion. After all these years, I don't know what to make of it. I would have been more apt to buy it if he would have rhetorically b!!c#-slapped Irving's son a little more over Palin, or answered Fred's ramblings on card-check with a "what the f*ck are you talking about!"

    Most likely, Juan will remember his place on Fixed News and quickly revert to Colmes-like semi-silent desperation, with any wounded pride salved by the abundant zeroes at the end of his semi-monthly FNC deposit advice.
