I guarantee this is going to make your jaw drop. Even if you’re a cynical prick like me, this is stupid above and beyond. An ABC station in Phoenix did a story about the Jessica Ahlquist case in Rhode Island — and interviewed a Canadian psychic — sorry, “medium” — to comment on it.

The idiot says all kinds of things that are, well, idiotic. Like pulling out a dollar bill and pointing out that it says “In God we trust” on it, as though that was in any way relevant. But the most offensive and moronic thing he says is this:

So I think that America is losing a lot of its core base values that it was founded upon to make everybody else happy. Try going to Iraq or Iran and telling them the way they’re running things isn’t working and you want to be looked after because of your simple little beliefs. It isn’t going to work out.

WTF? Did he really just say that America should be like Iran? Yep, he did. Like I said, even if you expect little out of the media today, this is mind-numbingly idiotic stuff. Oh, and the “news” report part of it is also inaccurate. The spokesmodel says that the original court rejected Ahlquist’s argument and the appeals court overturned it. Not true. This ruling was from the U.S. District Court, not the appeals court.
