Dr. Keith Ablow, who you’ll remember as the prime lobotomy candidate who claimed that Michelle Obama “needs to drop a few,” is doubling down on his comments and refusing to apologize. The tide comes in, the tide goes out, you know the drill.
Since we all know that the most balanced, logical input usually comes from a Fox News psychiatrist, (*shudder*) Dr. Ablow is clarifying his controversial statements by repeating them to Politico:
“I’m not taking food advice from an American who dislikes America, who in many photographs during her tenure as First Lady is obviously not fit, and who has a record of saying things that show that she’s two-faced,” Ablow said Wednesday. “This should be obvious, I don’t know why it isn’t.”
Generally, when you feel that obvious things are not obvious, it tends to be because they are not true.
“It happens to be the case that the First Lady during her tenure has not been consistently a picture of fitness,” he said. “That’s all, it is just a fact.”
Oh yes, facts. Those things which are oft confused with unicorns over at Fox News.
You know a man at Fox has said something exceptionally sexist and stupid when even the blonde brigade has to say something like Janice Dean, a senior meteorologist for Fox News Channel, did on Twitter.
The First Lady’s office has “declined to comment.” AKA they laughed hysterically and marked on their calendar that they’re one day closer to not having to deal with this trolling fuckshit.
