The Ann Coulter in training and CNN Contributor, Dana Loesch riled against MSNBC’s Martin Bashir after the relatively liberal-leaning MSNBC had the unmitigated gall to call out the sanctimonious nature of Mitt Romney contradicting his so-called beloved Mormon faith with his endless barrage of lies and attacks on President Obama. Bashir invoked the Book of Mormon in declaring that Romney “would go to hell” for all of his lies. Apparently Mormons can be just as sanctimonious as mainstream Christians, so that’s most certainly a step towards religious tolerance in America. Well, this moment of clarity didn’t sit very well with the tea party tart.
In a discursive and unintelligible tantrum from Thursday’s edition of “The Dana Show, Loesch apparently called Bashir “an unintelligent hack” and “a foreigner” who isn’t qualified to cover U.S. politics.
“I don’t want to hear a foreigner talking about media in this country, or politics in this country.”she said, “You don’t understand it.” She urged the award-winning journalist to go back to “his own country” and report on British politics and celebrities, “and be famous off of that.” (Source: Raw Story)
Here’s the audio:
So in Loesch’s world, a shrewd journalist who was actually educated in the field should just go back to talking about Russel Brand or whatever. Evidently this should also apply to Loesch’s fellow colleague and phone hacker in Piers Morgan, who was also born in England. In the meantime, maybe Loesch should return to her home country of Kookistan.

What a simpleton this so-called woman is. Aren’t these the same people who said Ted Nugent had a right to say what he did. Just more proof that when tea baggers get some FACTS or KNOWLEDGE dropped in their lap, they have no defense, so they go with the ole’ ignorant hate-filled response. BTW, where is the media “outrage” about this? This would be much worse than what Hilary Rosen said. That was at least a fair statement, this is just pure ignorance and bigotry.
