They're Really Trying To Call This A "Terrorist Fist Jab"
In lieu of any actual (or moderately close to actual) scandal to exploit, resident scandal mongers at Fox News are trying their hardest to subtly convince the FN-watching masses that there was something sinister afoot when Michelle Obama and Barack Obama touched fists before his speech last Tuesday. Friday, Fox anchor E.D. Hill said this in a story about the "fist bump:" "A fist bump? A pound? A terrorist fist jab? … We'll show you some interesting body communication and find out what it really says." Hill never explains her reference to the "terrorist fist jab" and leaves the phrase hanging, probably so that it would do its intended purpose.

Most "NON" non-story E-V-E-R.
These people are crazy idiots! How is it possible that they have never seen people do this before? Stupid!
Terrorist fist jab? Consider me warned.
This FOX quote is up there with the "lesbian gangs" of Bill O'Reilly which are, as he reported, terrorizing and ruling the streets of American cities. Yeah, I wish.

Fox News=Faux News. News for the Sheep. BAA!! BAAA!!!!!
I feel stupider for having watched that. : (
They needed a body language expert to explain that? Just ask any black person or heck, any teenager, on the street. And the terrorist reference was just your average Fox "news" craziness.
I love how the mere power of suggestion can send Fox viewers into paroxysms of fear. There was no follow-up in the clip of what a "terrorist fist-jab" even is. All they had to do was assign a ridiculous name, and the close-minded nutjobs watching at home will do the rest. It would be brilliant if it wasn't so fucking scary. We deserve McCain if that many Americans fall for crap like this.
This also shows the level of ignorance that mainstream America has for black America and its' culture. People who live in areas where there are few or no blacks are most likely to be had by this type of propaganda.
msim- I remember those reports about lesbian gangs, and you are so right. I think a large part of the Fox new channel's appeal for some is its fear mongoring(tp).
Faux news is really scrambling to find anything negative they can stick to Obama.
What's worse than Fox Noise are the idiots that swear by them.
What is so gotdamn fascinating about Black people? I really hate it when we're covered it the news on some old "Marvelous Negroid" type of shit. 'Fuck outta here.
What The F-Noise network–and, unfortunately, too many of its viewers–is terrorized by is seeing a couple who actually love each other instead of the usual stiff hugs and pursed pecks on the cheeks and other passive-aggressive marital behaviors we've seen in the MSM. And a loving couple of color? And an African American couple at that? The image just spits on their stereotypes that they use to bolster the right-wing's arguments (and legislation) about affirmative action and the inability of Black people to have families and good Black fathers and Black women being hypersexual "welfare queens."
The Cruel Secretary-Imagine if the kissed the way Al & Tipper did back in 2000. They would probably accuse Michelle and Obama of being sex fiends set on "corrupting the mind of young Americans everywhere" because this is a sign of the end of civilization.
