Yesterday we noted that Bryan Fischer is now promoting a theory that President Obama was photoshopped into the iconic image showing the situation room during the raid that killed Osama bin Laden.
Fischer was widely mocked for the suggestion which means, of course, that he has doubled down and dedicated two segments of his radio broadcast today to defending his theory.
His defense was predictably idiotic, as perfectly exemplified by this section in which he suggests that President Obama is wearing a windbreaker in the photo because this was only image that could be found of him where was was not looking down on everyone.
Fischer literally stated that “President Obama never looks up at anything; he looks down on everybody at all times in all circumstances. He’s got his nose up in the air looking down on you, looking down on me, looking down on the press, looking down on the American people.”
As such, the only image that could be found of him looking in the proper direction was this one, which was why they had to concoct a phony story that Obama had been out on the golf course earlier in the day.
Amazingly, that was not the most idiotic part of his statement, as he then went on to state that because former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had her hand over her mouth in the photo, it demonstrates that she is not fit to be President.
“She’s horrified, she frightened,” Fischer said. “Is that the woman you want to get the 3am phone call? You want her to get the 3 am phone call? Seriously! She’s sitting there at the table with her hand over her mouth, in shock. Now the guys around the table, they’re sober, they’re focused, they’re intent, but they are not freaked out. Hillary Clinton is freaked out by what she is seeing on the screen. Do we want her taking the 3 am phone call? I don’t think so”:
