Fox News: Swedes have pure genes, Americans marry other species

http://mediamatters.org/mmtv/200907080028

The fascist argument just got more traction. This shouldnt be taken as the view point of everyone on the right. Not all of us are conservative, or part of the GOP.

if you read the transcript he says irish and italians are different species. I didnt see the video yet cuz im at workFree_Marxet

Dumbest thing ive ever heard.

That guy should be fired. Im ashamed that that "thing" is on a news show.

Yeah, pretty sure that all this "pure gene" stuff is utter nonesense.

Did he just own himself?

duxup

Wow :|

Well, I've always been more of a Morning Joe fan anyways.

Species? What kind of thinking is that?

I'd like to think he was referring to this.

He probably wasn't.

Ohhhh boy.

Mouth, meet foot.

And thats why hes on a comedy show

Introducing the genes of other ethnicities into your bloodline is a very good thing for your offspring. The more different your spouses genetics are the more healthy your offspring are likely to be. It makes your children far more resistant to diseases and lowers the likelihood of genetic disorders, etc.

Species.. lolz.

I don't think he really means that. He's just too stupid to properly communicate what he does mean.Cherokee_Jack

I can't see what on Earth he could have actually meant. He basically directly said that it's only healthy to marry within your own ethnicity, and that the study does not apply to those who marry between ethnicities.

I AM from Sweden I can tell you that it's complete BS. We have had foreigners in our country for a long time not to mention the connection we have with the rest of scandinavia. Pure genes doesn't exist anymore, anyone who sais otherwise is living in a fantasy. Thousands of years trading with countries all over the world and a time before "borders" etc took care of that. Also not to mention there is no such thing as "pure genes". And he is speaking of different species!? That alone tells you the IQ of that man. There are races like there are different kinds of dogs, but in the end they are all dogs with different looks. Fox News is the worst thing to ever hit the U.S. Those are the reason the rest of the word looks on in shame. Gamingcucumber

It depends on how you define pure, but at the very least we can say there hasn't been anything that would come close to anyone's definition for centuries. Also, don't lump MSNBC in with Fox, not here. There are many things you can say about MSNBC, but to date I have yet to hear any of their commentators refer to ethnicities as different species and say that intermarriage is a bad thing.

This guy needs to learn the definition of species.

Yeah, after watching the video it looks pretty clear he wasn't serious... but I still kinda get the sense that the other two people on the show were all like "wtf?". :P

The woman didnt seem to think it was a serious comment, and I swore I heard the staff behind the camera laugh as well. Pretty sure nobody on set took it seriously.MoonMarvel

I personally got the sense that the other two hosts seemed to be trying to move things along and get off that topic, but maybe that's just me.

we often get confused at what non-liberals consider humourous and what they consider serious.
