Fox News anchor: We're 'barbarians' if we stop 'refugees'

Fox News anchor Shepard Smith used his show on Monday to insinuate Republican political leaders are little different than "the barbarians" of the Islamic State group known as ISIS.

Smith launched into a tirade after news broke that at least 15 state governors would refuse to accept Syrian migrants sent by the Obama administration due to security concerns.

"Our shining city on a hill is vulnerable. We've always known that. If we change it to accommodate the savages, have they won? And what then would be left to protect? We profess to stand as an example for all the world. Our unique experiment in freedom, tolerance, openness and equality is our gift to societies and peoples everywhere. Come, join us. Enjoy a chance at the American dream. Today, we mourn, but we cannot allow ourselves to become like those who want to destroy us," said Smith, Mediaite reported.

"We cannot resort to the tactics of the barbarians. We must fight for what we believe in and who we are, guard our freedoms faithfully for the generations to follow. And we must not let the rhetoric of potential and political extremists among us lead us to self-destruction. When there's panic, we show resolve. When there's calm for extremism, we resist. We are America. We must lead."

Shepard Smith is a hen in the Fox house.

He's a termite in the foundation of America....an ant at the picnic of western civilization.

Shepard Smith's Office Romance: A 26-Year-Old Fox Staffer

Gawker has learned that Smith is dating a 26-year-old Penn State grad and Fox Business producer named Giovanni "Gio" Graziano. According to multiple sources with knowledge of their relationship, the couple met sometime after Graziano started working at Fox Report in October 2011 as a production assistant. He's the man with whom Smith frequents Bathtub Gin.

"Yes, that's Shepard's boyfriend," Katya Minskova, the Bathtub Gin waitress Smith berated in March, confirmed to Gawker when shown a photo of Graziano. Another source who had seen them together at the Chelsea speakeasy confirmed Graziano's identity as well. Both sources say they saw Graziano and Smith together at the bar on multiple occasions, and that they appeared to be romantically involved.

While Smith and Graziano's boss Roger Ailes, a notorious homophobe, was apparently kept in the dark about the relationship - "higher ups had no idea" a source close to Graziano said - the pair doesn't appear to have gone to great lengths to keep the workplace romance from their co-workers.

"The people who know the most are [Graziano's] former coworkers from Fox," one source told Gawker. "One of the production assistants even saw him getting into Shep's limo one night earlier this year around 8 p.m. outside Fox, after Shep's show was over," the source added.

Up yours, Shep. If you can’t tell the difference between murdering people in the name of your god and keeping terrorists out of the country, you are dumber than a bucket of puke.

Shep must be really obsessed with being sodomized by strong swarthy types.

I have a creepy cousin that could be of service and he won’t even chop Sheps head off afterwards.

This is as funny as all these Democrats touting the same line that we have a “moral obligation” to help these Syrian refugees. Since when the hell do Democrats care about morality? Funny and downright pathetic.

His speech writers are now from the West Wing of the White House? Sounds exactly like a speech obozo would make. Or as Lt. Col. Bill Gowan called it last night on FOX - obamababble! None of it makes any sense. He contradicts himself from one sentence to the next.

A lot of the liberal agenda is a cover for people who are messed up sexually to achieve acceptance and applause from society.
