Fox & Friends Host Assumes Hispanic Co-Worker Is Taco Expert
New York Magazine ^ | 10/4 | Dan Amira

Posted on 10/04/2013 2:05:33 PM PDT by nickcarraway

Murphy's Law famously states that "anything that can go wrong, will go wrong." But many are unaware of the lesser-known corollary to Murphy's Law, known as Fox & Friends Law, which states that "anything that can be derped on Fox & Friends, will be derped." Consequently, from the moment it was decided to pair the hosts of Fox & Friends with Hispanic meteorologist Maria Molina for a segment on National Taco Day this morning, the derp was inevitable.

It was inevitable that Brian Kilmeade would ask Molina, "What are tips we need to know to do it correctly? You grew up on tacos, correct?"

It was inevitable that Steve Doocy would pause from stuffing his face to chide, "She did not grow — she's Colombian."

It was inevitable that Molina would inform both hosts that she was Nicaraguan and tacos are not a Nicaraguan food.

And it was inevitable that Elisabeth Hasselbeck would chime in, "But if you did — if you did grow up on tacos ..."

Such are the laws of the physical universe.

This is why I hate “couch shows,” and switch the channel every time I see a couch on the set. Couches do to brains what they do to pockets full of change: Drain them clean of their contents.

God only knows what these people would do on National Fried Chicken Day, if there is such a thing.

There really is a National Taco Day; I googled it.

Oh, the Greatest Liberal Sin: Stereotyping someone.

Since the "Hispanics" have gone out of their way to make themselves into a homogeneous caricature of a stereotype, who cares?

They take offense at what...Protestants who humiliated them and made a better country then they did in the Americas?

Gosh, they hate us so much, they'll do anything to live with us.

If it's all so gauche, she could always move back to SandinistaVille.

These three people are uneducated morons. Fox puts them out there to create negative stereotypes about conservative. These three aren’t conservative, and they are woefully ignorant. They are barely qualified to work at Taco Bell.

"She did not grow — she's Colombian."

Between 2004 and late into 2008 the influx of Columbian
midgets had a profound effect on the midget training and
placement market. Translators were outside the budget of most
midget entertainment production companies and so a terribly
flawed "Midge Instruction Sheet" appeared on the scene to
"assist" with midget direction on the filming sets.

I take exception to your demeaning of Taco Bell employees. Those three are most definitely not qualified to work around sharp, blunt or even round, smooth objects...like taco shells, cheese, lettuce or ice cubes.

They are, however, loco extremis.

And yes..morons.

Further...I can’t believe one of them was able to get his moronic child a job on the teevee.
