He was trying to say something along the lines of, Sweden is a very homogenous gene pool, so one has to be cautious about extrapolating the results of any study related to a genetically-influenced condition to the global population.

But he sure could have stood to think for ten seconds before he opened his mouth.

We can only stay "pure" by marrying within our "species"? Frankly, I have just never been tempted by dolphins, chimpanzees nor sheep. I'm hoping this FAUX commentators simply was a victim of mush-mouth (public speaking, especially off the cuff is REALLY hard!) and not some hidden racist with an agenda.

Beyond obviously supplying uncontroversial evidence that he is a racist and a bigot, this guy's remarks are completely off-topic. The subject of the study was that those people who have been married a long time tend to suffer less from Alzheimer's. Racial purity has nothing to do with the study's primary emphasis.

It makes one wonder, however, just what kind of other species he has been sleeping with.

Kilmeade must have studied biology under Jimmy the Greek.

Let us pray that he doesn't mate with Victoria Jackson.

I'm pretty sure the offspring would lack opposable thumbs.

If you watch and listen to that Fox crap, you are not the sharpest tool in the woodshed yourself.

If you have to laugh at stupids on Fox, you might want to try a mirror.

As far as I can tell, the whole country has gone full moron.

I think the brown-haired guy who isn't Steve Doucey may be doing high-concept comedy: a parody of right-wing rubes.

Once around Thanksgiving, I saw him, with a straight face, recount how the Pilgrims were aided by that native-American tribe, the "Heckawis."

At an earlier point in my life, I tried to watch it. What bothered me wasn't the conservative slant as much as the stupidity and amateurish quality of the network and its hosts. The caption writers are the worst of any I've seen, and seem to have trouble with basic grammar. The hosts, well, speak for themselves, and do a disservice to their side of the political spectrum more often than not.

I would be fine with a network that presented news with an intelligent, conservative perspective. Fox is far from that network.

Hrm, so how did Sweden and Finland get in the picture then? Was the study done with one of those countries? Wow, I can't believe I just defended Kilmeade's social darwinism.

Can someone please tell Stinks that 'stupid' isn't a noun!

I'm in the UK right now, and Fox & Friends is one of the few American news shows played on TV here. Compared to BBC, Al Jazeera (probably the best coverage of all) and even Sky News, Fox can't even be considered a news program.

But while I'm here I watch it religiously every morning, even though I've never really watched Fox News at home for longer than 10 or 15 seconds at a go. But why here? Because, from this angle, shows like Fox & Friends have the same allure as Jerry Springer (which is also massively popular here). It's like, "Damn, look how freaky the Americans are!"

That's how Fox News comes across internationally.

Didn't you call groups of people "stupids" back when you were in the 3rd grade? I know I did.

I can only assume Kilmeade hasn't been to Scandinavia lately. Last time I was in Oslo, there were more than a couple of "other species" types dating many of those "pure-blooded" Nordics. A few more years of that and Kilmeade won't have much of an argument anyway.

As for whether mutts are genuinely healthier than pure-bloods, how can we make the comparison? Most Americans aren't pure-blooded. (All of those black individuals who could pass for "white" back in the bad ol days and who actually succeeded in entering white society probably ended up in quite a few American family trees which is why race is a social construct. Someone inform Kilmeade please.) My paternal grandfather, descended from generations of mixed race, Creole individuals was recently diagnosed with Dupuytren's disease courtesy of some forgotten Norman ancestor(s). A puzzling state of affairs similar to a Caucasian friend of mine who was diagnosed with Sickle Cell anemia a decade ago without having any known black ancestry. We're all "mutts" in this country to some degree. The horse has run out of the stable on that particular argument. Closing the stable doors now would be an exercise in futility.

Ah, true, true.

Also, so depressing that Jerry Springer as News is the only news show that seems to be available in the UK. No wonder everyone hates us.

I wish all these people who think races should be kept "pure" would all go live on island together and keep themselves "pure" so that future generations can take a lesson from their inbred, idiot, insane descendants.

Ja, ja, ja ja!

You know, I haven't read the comments of others yet but, Christ, that this guy Kilmeade retains his job is stupefying (even if it is Fox).

It is astonishing--even by today's tea-baggin' standards--that such neanderthals (sorry, neanderthals) are engaged in public employment.

Maybe I should take a vacation to that "amusement" park in, I think, Tennessee, where dinosaurs are shown to co-exist with humans.

I need something to get my mind straight. Either that or just read Atlas Shrugged.

I get bored when others satirize Fox News, because it seems too easy and knee-jerk. But it's sweet when they makes fools of themselves just by talking.

So if Obama wants to kill them he'll have to dump them in the Pet Cemetery first.

Sometimes they come back.

Until bolts and wires fell out her ass.

At least someone with a passing knowledge of evolution wouldn't make moronic statements like this. Sheesh...I thought to be a host one would need some semblance of intelligence. Fox News keeps proving itself to be the exception to the rule.

Fair and Balanced means being the idiotic counterweight to those darn east-coast elitist news media.
