Elisabeth Hasselbeck announced that her run on the couch is about to come to an end. She announce she will leave the right wing network in December.
She will now become a full time mom to her many children.
In the meanwhile the two meat heads will have to find a replacement.
Wondering who could be the new blonde on the couch?
In the meantime, Hasselbeck will no longer have to defend the ignorance of co-hosts Steve Doocy and Brian Kilmeade.
Well in their annual Thanksgiving special, they invite Outnumbered's Harris Faulkner to make a few easy dinners.
That nimrod Brian Kilmeade asked the well educated Black anchor if she served Kool-Aid when she prepares food.
“Do you make Kool-Aid?” he asked.
“Uh, do I do what?” she replied.
“Make Kool-Aid,” Kilmeade repeated.
“Uh, no,” Faulkner stuttered. “I – I don’t make Kool-Aid.”
Last time, Kilmeade asked a weather girl if she was raised on tacos and tequila.
As you know, me and S. Baldwin have long complained about the divisive tactics of that right wing network. The network is playing on the racist stereotypes of Blacks, Hispanics and Muslims.
Of course these narratives drive White resentment. It's unfortunate that this right wing network dominates in ratings. It's a pretty damn shame that on Thanksgiving your crazy family member may have thoughts of Blacks being pretty much raised on chicken, collard greens, skittles, watermelon, grape drank and Ol' English.
Thanks to Raw Story for bring it to our attention.

| Jenean Hampton becomes Kentucky's lieutenant governor. She is the first African American to hold the position. She is a registered Republican. |
Kentucky's soon to be governor Matt Bevin is no longer a perennial gadfly. It was a healthy victory for the insurgent Republican. Did you know that the controversial businessman had a running mate that also won. Her victory marks a first for the state.
Jenean Hampton becomes the lieutenant governor for the state. She is the first African American to hold this position. She was elected as a Republican.
The 58 year old mother and grandmother started from humble beginnings. She grew up in the Detroit area. Her family worked in the manufacturing boom of the automotive juggernaut Chrysler.
She joined the U.S. Air Force, where she spent seven years writing code and managing software like the radar used to find enemy planes in Operation Desert Storm, where she was deployed. She then spent 19 years in the corrugated packing industry.
She boldly says that she's not a fan of Barack Obama and vows to oppose his policies. That often cause a family feud between her and her late father.
It's apparently a mystery to her family, too. Hampton said her father, who recently died, "went to his grave mad at me."
"That I'm conservative, Republican, didn't support Obama — he just could not wrap his arms around that," she told Bailey.
Hampton says her guiding light is constitutionally limited government, and she told Bailey that when trying to climb out of inner-city Detroit, she felt government and friends and family around her were rooting for her to fail:
"A huge part of what formed my opinions was the peer pressure that I got to fail," she said. "These were kids who questioned my good grades, questioned the way I spoke, questioned my choice in music and the fact that I was reading all the time. I just remember wondering, 'Well, jeez, when do I get to just be Jenean with my own likes and dislikes?' "
As she got older, she said she despised Nixon's Republican Party but came around to the GOP when Ronald Reagan was president because he reflected her own optimism about the American Dream, according to Bailey.
Now as the lieutenant governor, Hampton will do her best to make Republicans seem less racist than they normally are.
The race in the Bluegrass state was supposed to be a victory for the Democrats.
The people of Kentucky love KNect, the state's health care exchange. Outgoing governor Steve Beshear was at best a decent governor. The Democrats didn't put much in the races for governor.
But I guess Donald Trump's impact and the state's opposition to gay marriage being a contributing factor to Bevin winning the governor's race.

As NBA legend Kareem Abdul Jabbar said it best, why would any Black person vote for a Republican?
He took a 3-pointer at Ben Carson.
In a Time Magazine article, the famed basketball player said that Republicans will never listen to the concerns of Black America.
He summed it up like this: "[Carson's] repressive, muddled and pious policies and opinions often run against our Constitution—but his questionable proposals will likely, thankfully, be doomed by his lack of political expertise. His presidency would be marked by even worse gridlock while he wastes his time trying to impose his narrow and sometimes ill-informed morality on the other 319 million people in the nation. And it would definitely not be good for African Americans to have a president who flounders helplessly in office because it would perpetuate the stereotype that blacks can’t be effective CEOs, quarterbacks and leaders."
Abdul Jabbar added, "Although Carson is a celebrated physician, he has expressed several opinions that are contrary to scientific evidence and therefore call into question his logic—a quality crucial in a president. His claim that sexual orientation is a choice is remarkably unscientific. He has argued that “a lot of people” in prison change their sexual orientation. As many people have pointed out, sexual behavior is not the same as orientation. Plus, studies indicate the most significant causes of sexual orientation are genetics and in utero hormonal exposure. According to the American Psychological Association, “most people experience little or no sense of choice about their sexual orientation.” For a physician to ignore the preponderance of scientific proof in favor of his own religious beliefs is dangerous because is it justifies enacting laws that restrict human and civil rights. Carson has since apologized, but we should never forget that pseudo-science was used to prove blacks were physically and mentally inferior to whites and to justify slavery."
| I won't endorse Ben Carson for president. |
And what makes Carson so pitiful is his lame attempt to win the Black vote. So in select areas, the Carson campaign released a hip-hop themed political ad.
Carson himself doesn't rap in the 60-second radio spot, which will play for two weeks in Miami, Atlanta, Houston, Detroit, Birmingham, Alabama, Jackson, Mississippi, Memphis, Tennessee, and Little Rock, Arkansas. A rapper named Aspiring Mogul raps, "Vote and support Ben Carson for our next president and be awesome," over clips of Carson remarks about freedom and personal responsibility.
Carson isn't a fan of hip-hop music.
But he's willing to put a handful of $$$$$$$ to win the Black vote.
Carson has at 20% of the Black vote. That's a first for a Republican. It hasn't been achieved since the days of George H.W. Bush.

| Calls for a cannon fire plague entertainer Raven-Symone. |
One too many slips now has the former child star facing a backlash.
Raven-Symone (Pearman) started co-hosting The View in April. She was formally introduced to the program during the Fall season. Now six months in, many fans of the daytime talk show are calling for her removal.
In the wake of Officer Slam, the entertainer said the cop went out of line when did his take down of the teen. However, she slammed the teen for not listening to the cop.
She basically said that the teen should have put her damn phone up.
Officer Slam (formerly known as Ben Fields) was fired out the cannon last week.
I've heard a handful of students weren't happy about his cannon fire. The conservative agitators were promoting the counter-protest. Some students walked out of class in support of the now former South Carolina deputy for the Richland County sheriff's department.
There's a petition calling for ABC to fire the entertainer out the cannon. So far they see the entertainer as a goldmine. They consider her the Black version of Rosie O'Donnell.
The five most outrageous comments.
1) Defending Officer Slam
2) Watermelondrea
3) I'm A Celebrity And I Take Selifes
4) Defending a Spanish host after he called First Lady Michelle Obama an "ape"
5) $20 Harriett Tubman
On Change.org, there's a petition calling for a cannon fire. So far over 135,000 people signed on to the petition. I am guessing that Raven-Symone signed it too as a middle finger to those who want to throw "political correctness" around.
Che Scott-Heron, the U.K. woman who started the petition, wrote on the petition's website that Raven's statements only hurt the black community.
"African Americans and black people around the diaspora need a voice representative of their views and not a voice representative of what white people want us to say." Heron wrote. "We need strong black role models in prominent positions on television and Raven-Symoné cannot provide that. That is why I ask that we petition to remove her from 'The View.'"
As the daytime talk show enters its 19th season, ratings are down. CBS daytime's The Talk enters its 6th season within striking distance of The View. The second quarter ratings bested The View.
By the way, the third worst person to host a cable news show got a petition calling for his cannon fire. Don Lemon also faced a backlash after he got a kick out watching Officer Slam flipping the teen.
Who is a hot mess?

| Republican agitators claim they were booted from a Hillary Clinton campaign stop. |
As Hillary Clinton launches a formal campaign, the Republicans found it possible to troll her. When it was told that Republican protesters were going to be there, they were thrown out!
I don't want to draw to conclusions, but I bet he and his posse went in with Blue shirts, then were ejected after they turned their shirts over to say Stop Hillary.
After they left, they took a picture with the shirts post it on social media to see it if would get dumbass Jim Hoft and the conservative Craigslist attention.
This is according to the Deputy Press Secretary for the Republican Party, Raffi Williams, the son of Loserville commentator Juan "Token" Williams.
Williams is one of the instigators who told the junk food media about crowd sizes and the events had a "sea of white faces".
Again, Republicans show a sign of desperation. The accusations of Republicans being told to turn their shirts back or face removal is bullshit.
I believe that it's a rouse.
But nonetheless it caused a form of conservative outrage.
| And so it begins....cue the outrage. |
Democratic challengers are pouncing on Clinton because of her hypothetical stance on President Barack Obama's proposal for trade overseas.
The Democrats blocked the legislation that would give the president fast track actions on foreign trade with Asian allies.
Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Martin O'Malley are hoping to get out of single digits by attacking Clinton on her stances as well.
I am in agreement. The candidates aren't inspiring.
They are too polarizing! Republicans really are terrible. They are still stuck on stupidity and their obsession with Obama and Clinton.
Barack Obama beat most of them. If he ran a third term, he would beat them again. Damn shame the 22nd Amendment prevents it.
