Wheel of Fortune's Pat Sajak pokes fun at nanny Michael Bloomberg


"Wheel of Fortune is playing in front of crowds at Madison Square Garden in New York City this week. Host Pat Sajak took the opportunity to poke a little fun at America’s leading  paternalist, Michael Bloomberg. Sipping from Big Gulp-sized soda — with many in the audience laughing on — Sajak informed the crowd that he had just discovered “cola is better with trans-fats in it.”

"Why did he do it?

' “Not much to say. It was Monday night on Wheel, our first night of four weeks at Madison Square Garden in New York. Not sure why everyone laughed; I was just thirsty,” Sajak told Human Events."

Pat Sajak Slams 'Racist' Baiters  From 2010; "Pat Sajak, the host of the Wheel of Fortune has written a column in Human Events slamming those who would call opponents of ObamaCare racist:" Sajak's article:
Opposed to Obamacare? Then You Must Be a Racist  "Welcome to post-racial America, where those who oppose a piece of legislation must defend themselves against the scurrilous charges of a man who seems much better suited to reviewing “Cats”.  (He liked it, by the way.) This was a particularly shameful column, and the millions of Americans who oppose this legislation are owed an apology. Are they right? Are they wrong? Let’s discuss it. Let’s debate it. Let’s yell and scream if we want to. But would it be too much to ask that we approach the matter based on its merits and leave the psychobabble to Dr. Phil?"


 

More on the Benghazi Whistleblower

Rich Terrell, who needs to be re-educated
Real Courage: The Benghazi Whistleblower   "I could easily not say this and avoid a lot of trouble, but I'm gonna go ahead and say it.  We're losing our language.  Words mean things.  The way we're defining "courage" is kind of curious to me.  A pro basketball player announcing that he likes to have sex with other men, in my book, in a comparative sense, is not courageous, when compared, say, to a whistleblower trying to set the record straight about what happened in Benghazi." Rush Limbaugh

Obama Presser: Not Sure What Happened; We Will Investigate  "Question two related to the ongoing situation in finding the truth about Benghazi, specifically that some people were being stonewalled from testifying. The president had not heard of intimidation tactics being used against the whistle blowers but his team would investigate and he would get back with information."

He looks like a man who would rather be opening a library than governing a country " I had to laugh at a couple of his comments.  Wonder how bad this guy would look if he actually had a media that was aggressive and asked tough questions?"

GOP persists with questions about Benghazi attack  "Sens. John McCain, R-Ariz., Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., and Kelly Ayotte, R-N.H., called again for the formation of a joint select committee to investigate the handling of the attack. They said the committee was needed in light of new revelations about Benghazi, including reports that some whistle-blowers are "afraid to testify." "

Krauthammer: Obama Claiming Ignorance About Benghazi Survivors Is "Stunning"   "The president's answer? He hadn't heard about that. That could be true, a little bit hard to believe. That was, I thought, rather stunning. Since he knew that the first question would go to Ed Henry, and since Ed Henry is from FOX News, and there was a big story on FOX News last night."

ESPN supports Broussard after controversial Jason Collins comments
"Nearly all the immediate reaction from present and past athletes was supportive, but in an appearance on ESPN’s “Outside the Lines,” Broussard was asked for his personal opinion on Collins’s comments, and he didn’t hold back. He said he believes homosexuality is an “open rebellion” against God and discussed how that jibes with his views on tolerance.
" “I’m a Christian. I don’t agree with homosexuality. I think it’s a sin, as I think all sex outside of marriage between a man and a woman is,” he said...“L.Z. [Granderson, a gay sportswriter and ESPN contributor] knows that. ... He knows where I stand, and I know where he stands. I don’t criticize him, he doesn’t criticize me, and call me a bigot, call me ignorant, call me intolerant.

"Isn't that the whole point of freedom?  Isn't tolerance tolerating people that disagree with you?  So Jason Collins comes out, and he's gay, and whoever publicly doesn't sign on to it has to be silenced, may be punished, fired, penalized." Rush Limbaugh
