Unfortunately via DailyKos, which somehow attached itself to my feeds (came bundled with the download, I assume), but confirmed via Salon

QuoteWatching Fox News' morning show, "Fox and Friends," is a little bit like watching the aftermath of a particularly nasty car crash. Yeah, it's awful, but you just have to keep looking, because, well, who knows what mangled body parts they'll pull from the wreckage next?

Even by those standards, though, host Brian Kilmeade's performance on Wednesday was just terrible.

Kilmeade and two colleagues were discussing a study that, based on research done in Finland and Sweden, showed people who stay married are less likely to suffer from Alzheimer's. Kilmeade questioned the results, though, saying, "We are -- we keep marrying other species and other ethnics and other ..."

At this point, his co-host tried to -- in that jokey morning show way -- tell Kilmeade he needed to shut up, and quick, for his own sake. But he didn't get the message, adding, "See, the problem is the Swedes have pure genes. Because they marry other Swedes .... Finns marry other Finns, so they have a pure society."

To their credit, at least the others tried to take him to task for sounding like he had just stumbled out of a 1933 Munich rally...

And sadly, some subset of Americans were probably nodding along with the 'logic'.

Its even better, here is a longer snippet of the transcript:

QuoteKILMEADE: We keep marrying other species and other ethnics.

CARLSON: Are you sure you're not suffering from some of the causes of dementia now?

KILMEADE: You see, the problem with, uh. The Swedes have pure genes because they marry other Swedes because that's the rule. Finland, Finns marry other Finns, so they have a pure society.

In America, we marry everybody, Italians, Irish.

MORRIS: So the study does not apply to us?

KILMEADE: The study does not apply to us.

That second line, from Carlson, just kills me every time.

I like the fact that the person who said Ted Kennedy should be viewed as a hostile enemy cause he was critic of the war attempted to be the voice of reason
