THE ‘TRIUMPHANT’ RETURN OF BOB ‘JABBA THE HUT’ BECKEL…


In a move that I’m sure has him feeling much more at home these day, liberal loudmouth Bob ‘Jabba the Hut’ Beckel, a former co-host of "The Five" on Fox News, has now found a new home as he recently returned to cable television.  This time around it be those who can stomach watching the Communist News Network (CNN) who will be blessed by his presence.  Let’s face it, that’s a network which is far more likely to tolerate, and make excuses for, his idiotic antics.

It was back in June that Fox News finally released the blowhard, Beckel, after what had proven to be a rather controversial stint, to say the least, on "The Five" where, among other things, he took contrary positions, was caught flipping off another co-host and on multiple occasions let fly with an F-bomb.  In other words, typical behavior for a brain-dead liberal.  But as I said, it’s doubtful that such behavior will cause him any problems there at CNN.

"The Five" had been rated No. 1 on basic cable at 5 p.m. for June, and its ratings for the 25-54 age demographic was up eight percent since Feb. 16, but Beckel had entered rehab therapy in April, reportedly for an addiction to prescription pain medication, and his last appearance on the show was Feb. 16.  I very much doubt that his absence had much of an impact on the show’s ratings, unless there were many tuning in to see what stupid stunt he would pull this time.

It was Bill Shine, Fox's executive vice president of programming, who said in a June statement announcing Beckel's departure that, "We tried to work with Bob for months, but we couldn't hold 'The Five' hostage to one man's personal issues."  And he went on to say, "He took tremendous advantage of our generosity, empathy and goodwill and we simply came to the end of the road with him."  Very tactfully put, but his personal issues should have come as a surprise to no one.

Of course Beckel seemed to be confused by it all.  It was in some idiotic Twitter post that old Beckel said he was rather "baffled" about being released by Fox.  He said, “I just can't understand the anger in Fox statement. I was healing from major back surgery i could not walk, I took no advantage I got well.”  So like every other liberal you’ll ever meet the problems that they encounter throughout their lives have absolutely nothing to do with them.

The topic of Beckel’s triumphant return to cable ‘news’ was, of course, (Donald) Trump, whom CNN could find any one of 856 contributors and/or guests in the New York area to opine about.  But instead it was Beckel who got the call – or more likely – he pitched CNN on giving him a few at-bats. Beckel was likely eager to show that he's clean, sober and ready to work again.  But frankly he doesn’t make any more sense off the drugs that he did while on the drugs.

Personally, I could never quite figure out the rational for having Beckel on the network to begin with he simply didn’t fit.  He seemed to be more like someone you tend to see on MSNBC or CNN.  So I can’t say that I’m at all surprised to see that he has finally shown up on one to those two ‘news’ networks.  Let’s face it, he no political genius.  His only claim to fame is that he one engineered a political campaign that garnered for his candidate, the electoral votes of the candidate’s home state.

FILE THIS ONE UNDER: IT’S ABOUT DAMN TIME!!!


Finally, something that I have been waiting to see for I don’t know how long has now finally become a reality.  And I gotta tell you, I could not be happier.  After all, it’s the little things in life that make it worth living.  You see, it was announced earlier in the week that Fox News had finally come to its senses and parted ways with Bob ‘Jabba the Hut’ Beckel, a liberal hack who was a regular on that network's "The Five".  Beckel’s only claim to fame, as near as I can figure, is the fact that guided Walter Mondale to what was a landslide defeat in 1984.  And what makes it all the better, at least for me, is the fact that, apparently, the split was not on good terms.

So anyway, it was Bill Shine, who is, I guess, the executive VP of programming, who said, "We tried to work with Bob for months, but we couldn't hold 'The Five' hostage to one man's personal issues."  Mr. Shine went on to say, "He took tremendous advantage of our generosity, empathy and goodwill and we simply came to the end of the road with him."  In other words, and what Mr. Shine is too nice to really say here is that, Beckel took it upon himself to behave as one would typically expect any liberal to behave.  And also, as is the case with most of those who reside on the left, Beckel apparently possesses a rather over-inflated sense of importance.   

Beckel has been off the air since February apparently because of some back surgery.  Quite frankly I hadn’t even missed him.  In May, it had been reported that he was in rehab after becoming addicted to pain medication.  And then we find out that, also in what is typical fashion for your run-of-the-mill liberal, Beckel has a rather long history with drug and alcohol abuse.  Beckel joined Fox News as a contributor back in 2000 and has appeared on a number of shows, including his regular stint on "The Five" that began four years ago.  He has also become, for whatever reason, a regular guest on "Hannity" and the network's news shows that air during the day.

Beckel has stirred controversies over the years by the rather idiotic things that he's said on the air.  In 2013, for example, he argued that the United States should suspend giving out student visas and that Muslims should stop building mosques on U.S. soil.  He said, "I will repeat what I said before: No Muslim students coming here with visas."  He went on to say, "No more mosques being built here until you stand up and denounce what's happened in the name of your prophet."  Now I have to admit this was one of those very rare occasions where I actually found myself in complete agreement with him.  But as they say, even a broken clock is right twice a day.

But look, Beckel has said more than a few things over the course of however many years he’s been with Fox News that I thought should have gotten him canned.  Far worse than what was his, in this case, rather accurate opinion regarding Muslims and the building of mosques in this country.  But being right once doesn’t erase the many times that he was more than simply inappropriate while on the air.  Let’s face it, he rarely, if ever, had any sort of a point to make and seemed only to be there for the specific purpose of spewing the currently Democrat talking points.  I always thought they kept him around so that he could provide a little comic relief.

BOB 'JABBA THE HUT' BECKEL...GET THIS FAT F*CK OFF THE AIR!

This imbecile long ago outlived what little usefulness he may have provided by being on television.  He's nothing more than a foul-mouthed slob and he really needs to be sent packing back to join the ranks of those on CNN and MSNBC.  He's not funny, he's a sophomoric jerk! And he'll fit in quite nicely with the caliber of folks that have over those other networks.

BOB "JABBA THE HUT" BECKEL STRIKES AGAIN...

Ok, I ask you all again.  Why is this moron still permitted to be on television anywhere?  I mean let's face it, you could a train a freakin monkey to come up with more intelligent things to say than this horse's ass.  Hfter all, he's got the IQ of your average doorknob.  What has he ever done other than to run, and in such a ery masterful way, the sing presidential campaign of Walter Mondull?

BOB 'JABBA THE HUT' BECKEL CALLS ROMNEY A PUNK...

How ironic!  The real punk in this race is Bob's boy, Barry "Almighty".  This is just one more example of just how much of a moron Beckel really is.  And why it is that people continue to think that he has any credability on any topic whatsoever, baffles me.  More often that not he makes no sense, and serves as nothing more than comic relief.

BOB "JABBA THE HUT" BECKEL…YOU CAN'T MAKE THIS STUFF UP...


In a lesson that you would have thought this moron would have learned long ago, especially as one who works in broadcasting, is that you should always assume that your microphone might be live. Yet time and time again we see that rule being violated or ignored. Sometimes, I think, on purpose. And often it comes right at the moment when the commercial break ends. Such was the case recently on Hannity's show on Fox. We had Bob "Jabba the Hut" Beckel who was obviously carrying on an off-air argument to the point where he missed any cue about going back live. So he finished yelling at Neil Boortz, “You don’t know what the f**k you’re talking about.” I think it quite safe to assume here that if there was anybody who was taking part in this "discussion" who didn't know what the f**k they were talking about, it was, and most assuredly so, old Jabba Beckel.

In a blooper that is as hilarious as it was increasingly becomes painful, for old Bob, it slowly dawned on this pathetic boob, what had actually happened, as Hannity insists that he apologize and a defiant Beckel, saying he won’t several times, until it finally dawns on this idiot that the cameras are actually rolling. When he, slowly but surely, finally figured it all out, he told Hannity to “run your show better,” then covered his head in shame and in doing both himself and those watching a huge favor, refused to speak, other than to say “I’m going to be fired.” And he should. He provides nothing useful, no matter where he shows up. He's great at spewing the typical Democrat Party talking points, but hell, you could probably teach a monkey to do that. And for the life of me I can never figure out why it is that this fat slob is such a regular on Hannity's show. Maybe after this episode he won't be.

BOB “THE TOAD” BECKEL ISN’T TOO HAPPY WITH REP. ALLEN WEST…


Bob "The Toad" Beckel, who bears an uncanny resemblance to “Jabba the Hut” of “Star Wars” fame, appears to be none too happy with Rep. Allen West (R-FL) these days. Maybe it's because what Mr. West said might possibly have hit just a little too close to the truth. And we know how liberals hate the truth. I'm sure we've all seen old Jabba, I mean Bob, out there promoting the Democrat Party line whenever provided with an opportunity. He appears frequently on the Fox News channel these days, as a regular on something called “The Five,” and appearing way too often on Sean Hannity’s show as part of Sean's Great, Great American Panel. Something I'm confused by is that Jabba, sorry, I mean Bob, never really does anything more than to spew the standard talking points. I written here about Mr. West's comments with which Bob seemed to take exception to. What Mr. West said was, “This is a battlefield that we must stand upon. And we need to let President Obama, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi and my dear friend, chairman of the Democrat National Committee, we need to let them know that Florida ain’t on the table.” He made the comments last Saturday during a speech given at a Lincoln Day Dinner in West Palm Beach, Florida. Rep. West went on to say that Democratic leaders should take their message of “economic dependency” and “get the hell out of the United States of America.” All he did was to tell it like it is, and I was in complete agreement. He was spot on. These sleazy Democrats are on a mission and it is to destroy our country. They hate America and everything it stands for, far from being re-elected they should be run out of town on a rail!



But apparently, Rep. West's comments proved to be a bit too much for old Bob. Expressing his obvious displeasure on "The Five," Beckel said, “I’m going to try to be as calm here as I possibly can here in deference to my friends here at this table.” Then behaving in typical fashion, he proceeded into what can only be described as your typical liberal tirade. Doing his best to sound shocked and offended, Beckel said, “In my 30 years of politics, I have never heard anything more disgraceful in my life. I think that Allen West owes an apology to a lot of people. He’s lucky to have that seat in the first place. I’ll tell you this, Mr. West; When you start shooting your mouth off like that – and I admire the fact that you were in the military and you served your country. I understand that.” He went on, “But before you start saying that, at the end of it, you said ‘Get the hell out of the United States,’ then you didn’t say the policies. Now, there’s 20 percent of us or 22 percent of us that happen to be Progressives, who believe in what Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi say. You go on to say 100 percent of America. We’re 20 percent of America and we’re not going anywhere whether you like it or not,” Beckel then added, “And you better be careful, my friend, because you’re getting on the edge there and you’re taking that Tea Party crowd with you,” wagging his finger at an imaginary Rep. West. Hey, wait a minute, I thought Jesse "The Extortionist" Jackson said that that was supposed to be the "ultimate insult." Whoops that's right, that's only when a Republican does it. I thought it was rather telling when Beckel admitted that he actually believes the never-ending stream of lies that spring forth from Dingy and Stretch on nearly a daily basis.


It was Greg Gutfeld, co-host of this odd assortment of characters referred to as "The Five'" who actually argued that Beckel’s righteous indignation was more than just a little misplaced. “During the break, I made a list of outspoken black liberals,” Gutfeld said, “Al Sharpton, Louis Farrakhan, Black Panthers, Jesse Jackson, Angela Davis, Cornel West, Public Enemy, Eric Dyson!” “In our culture,” Gutfeld continued, “We celebrate outspoken black leftists. So, now you have one, provocative, American, black conservative, and you liberals whine? I wanna’ see more Allen West. He’s not the first one, but he’s the beginning. And it’s refreshing–” And then like any good liberal when not liking what they're hearing, Beckel butted in saying, “You wanna’ see more of that hatred? You wanna’ see that kind of hatred in America?” “That’s not hatred,” Gutfeld shot back. “It’s is hatred,” Beckel interrupted again, “It’s the worst most disgraceful, despicable, disgusting—“ Liberals like this fat slob Beckel have rather interesting definition for what qualifies as hate. They possess a rather skewed perception of things in that they must always be allowed to say whatever it is that they want, no matter how vile, but those on the right must be forever silenced. Beckel is nothing more than your very typical liberal hypocrite. “I just listed for you a dozen, black liberals who spoke in very extreme language in the last 20, 30 years,” Gutfeld said, putting an abrupt end to Beckel’s brief experiment with alliteration. Later in the segment, as Beckel was trying to explain that Rep. West represents an extreme element in the Republican Party. Again with this "extreme" nonsense. Liberals' favorite way to describe anyone who chooses to disagree with them.


Ok, now I'm gonna need a little help here with something. What I need is for somebody, anybody, to please remind me again of what exactly this moron's claim to fame is supposed to be. I mean I've racked by brain and the only thing that I can come up with, that he's ever done, was way back in 1984 when he managed the presidential campaign of Walter Mondull. And if I remember things correctly, he did such a masterful job at that, that the only state Mondull ended up winning was his home state of Minnesota. So is that what it takes, these days, to get one's name put on a Who's Who list of those involved in American politics? Must be. And I'm also a little confused regarding what it is that makes him think that he is somebody who should be listened to and is someone whose opinion matters when discussing the seriousness of our present economic situation. Why, exactly, should anybody be the least bit interested in anything this hack has to say? About anything! Like every other liberal out there he does his best to portray fiction as being fact and is great at repeating the Democrat Party talking points ad nauseam until you just want to scream. And it annoys me no end that this fat slob always seems to have a constant smirk on his face which would indicate to me that he thinks it's all some kind of joke that our country is now very firmly stuck in the toilet and it was those whom he says he believes in that are the very ones responsible. And apparently his remedy for our current predicament is for us to provide to the same ones who got us here even more power to "fix" that which they brought about. Now what sense does that make?
