Really Wolf. Shut up. His comments are beyond inane.

And apparently a lot of it, considering my computer decided to post it twice, for emphasis. ;)

4. Oh, it's one dumb remark after another
My favourite was "For those of you who like food, and we all do, you'll be excited about the lunch menu!"

9. When? When he was Pat Robertson's boytoy on the PTL/700 Club??
Really?!!? When was he ever a serious journalist.

He's been and remains a shill.

13. Watching Woof's show is like watching 24....
The threat level is always high, and everything is sooooooooo dramatic. Back when I watched him, I was always prepared for Osama Bin Laden to pop out from behind a curtain wielding a machine gun.

15. Wolf has NEVER been a serious journalist
The man is the epitome of what you can expect when you make news entertainment and forgo any semblance of journalistic integrity.
