Uh oh. Fox News uses Obama photo for Romney

Posted by The Right Scoop The Right Scoop on December 14th, 2011 in Politics | 59 Comments

I assume it’s a mistake. Here’s the photo in question:

I’m sure Romney isn’t going to like that one bit. I think it’s hilarious, but can totally understand why they wouldn’t like it.

Here’s the video proof if you need it:

UPDATE: Thanks to Mediaite for the better photo. They also have the apology from Megyn Kelly to her viewers if you want to watch it.

        Hey, if you don’t mind giving attention and traffic to people who hate your guts and want to see you and every Christian like you die a slow, painful death because you are Evil with a capital E, then go for it.

        Just never forget they hate you and everything you stand for.

          That reminds me of a post I put on mediaite one time repudiating a posters comments with facts about Obama. Wow you would never have seen the personal vicious attacks at yours truly! It was as if I were the devil incarnate!

      • Anonymous

        BTW, Scoop. Your statement of ‘I assume it was a mistake’ was the best joke in this thread. A little tongue-in-cheek, mayhaps?

  • Anonymous

    That’s hilarious. It surely is a mistake by the network, but it wouldn’t be the first time that someone slips something in as joke and it’s not noticed beforehand. If that’s the case and this is complained about, there might be someone without a job.

    I don’t think it’s hilarious at all!! I think it’s a Freudian slip!! I stopped watching fox except when it shows up here because they do a lot of Freudian slips and is one reason why America and the world is in this doodoo – they pander and play very bias and dangerous games, as do other “news” outlets. I personally think America is lost if you all vote for Newt and Romney and I probably won’t vote because you guys don’t (those supporters) seem to care about America’s sovereignty and free market principles. Proving Khruschev right, isn’t my idea of hilarious. Evanescence: “You Americans are so gullible. No, you won’t accept Communism outright but we’ll keep feeding you small doses of socialism until you’ll finally wake up and find you already have Communism. We won’t have to fight you. We’ll so weaken your economy until you’ll fall like overripe fruit into our hands. We are convinced that sooner or later Capitalism will perish, just as Feudalism perished earlier…….All the world will come to Communism. History does not ask whether you want it or not.” ~Nikita Khruschev, U.S.S.R. United Soviet Socialist Republics, Interview Osaka, Japan, June 18 (*171*252*333*414*585*666*747*828*999*Revelation 13:1) , 1957. “

      If you don’t vote then you can’t bitch after the election. I won’t expect to see you on here after the election.

      “I personally think America is lost if you all vote for Newt and Romney and I probably won’t vote because you guys don’t (those supporters) seem to care about America’s sovereignty and free market principles.”

      So you say you won’t vote and then **accuse others of not caring?** And go even further to quote Khruschev saying Capitalism will perish and communism will rule? Do you perhaps have even a whisper of a CLUE why that could happen? Could it have something to do with VOTING?? Maybe because people don’t care enough to vote?

      Let me guess, you’re a RuPaul supporter? And if he doesn’t win, you’re going to take your ball and go home to your bunker?

    Romney is just the pastier version of Obama

  • Anonymous

    That picture is actually pretty accurate! They are interchangeable.

  • Gordon Willsey

    Policy wise I can’t tell the difference between Romney and Obama. So, to whom is Megyn apologizing to? And, for what? Brothers of a different father sort of thing is what we have here. Can you name three policies Romney had as governor that Obama has rejected out of hand as president? Any policy?

    This is a Freudian slip by FOX. Yet they have really pushed this guy on the conservatives and their ratings have begun to see a drop lately. Very funny really!

    • Anonymous

      I haven’t watched Fox News in 2 months–since they let RINO’s like Rove, Kristol, Krauthammer, and O’Reilly sabotage a wonderful, patriotic woman, Sarah Palin. I hope you’re correct about their ratings slipping. It would be justified.

    Either someone at FOX has quite the sense of humor, or it was a “Freudian Slip”.

    Obamas photo is in the right place. Romney is the most moderate liberal republican in the race. I actually think he is a RINO. I still support Gingrich and don’t care about baggage. Show me a politician without baggage and I’ll introduce you to the real Santa Claus.

    • Anonymous

      I find it very dis-heartening that you first talk about Romney and diss him and say he is the most moderate liberal in the race (You need to do more homework) then say he is a RINO, even though he has been in to politics less time than any candidate he is running against, so the statement is “False”. You are doing exactly what the other side does, and speaks with-out facts. I place your age between 22-26 and you have no Idea who Gingrich is. I knew that before talk show hosts started in on Gingrich. Why ell’s do you think at the beginning of this election cycle, everyone thought Gingrich was not going to be the candidate. All he is doing is using smart tactics to get into office. Later than you contradict yourself and say I am still for Gingrich (without all the facts I might add) and that you don’t care about the baggage. So what? you don’t care about Gingrich’s baggage but you do care about Romney’s baggage. I am sorry but I am calling you out because we have tons of “NEW VOTERS” who think they all of a sudden know everything, Yet there thinking is skewed. You are nothing but a Noob to Politics and I wish you would do more homework before contradicting yourself in your statement.

      Good Places to start are.
      Read, (Not watch, or listen) to Atlas Shrugged.

      Watch the video “The Gobbles Experiment” on Netflix. Compare it to today’s politics it will send chills up your spine. The Documentary was filmed in 2004 before I knew who Obama was or even in office.

      Read: “The White Rose Society” leaflets. Easily found on the internet.

      If you wish to have a true understanding of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights READ “Blackstone’s Commentary on the Law”. The Two best selling books when the Constitution was signed were; #1 The Bible and #2 Blackstone’s Commentary on the Law. Also found easily on the internet.

      Read: The Naked Communist “AND” the Naked Capitalist by Cleon Skousen.

      Last but should be first is read the Constitution 5 times in a row and the Bill of Rights 5 times in a row, study them as if you were going to have a test on them.

      Please don’t take me wrong; I know we are on the same side and wish the same things for our country. So we can agree to disagree now, yet when the time is right we will be on the same side.
