Sheppard Smith, Arch-Progressive Crank

Yes, in the middle of FoxNews' broadcast day, they have smug, condescending, reflexive and dogmatic progressive anchoring the news.

As Shep Smith said about the threat of Global Warning: It's true. It's true.

The #SmartTake today among progressives on Twitter was to fret about Obama's Cuba initiative, not for being insufficiently anti-communist, of course, but for exposing that Tropical Communist Paradise to decadent running-dog capitalism.

And that, of course, was Shep Smith's take.

“The last thing they need is a Taco Bell and a Lowe's," Shep Smith says, worried about America poisoning Castro's utopia, and that we will "ruin" it. Quote unquote.

Incidentally, Jay Thomas, supposedly an actor and allegedly a comic, hough I mostly know him as a blowhard minor celebrity turned progressive radio host, makes a joke that if North Korea launches a nuke and kills Seth Rogen and James Franco, it will be a "Hell of an ending to their careers."

I'm not offended, I'm just annoyed that so many people, especially those on the left, seem to think "clever" is synonymous with "obnoxious."
