Clip o’ the century, folks, clip o’ the century. Here is our favorite Fox & Friends star Steve Doocy wearing his mother’s finest Christmas sweater in a DC local news segment from 1988. The story is about one “A-peeling Guy” trying to give the Washington Redskins a potato. BUT! BUT! According to the subject of the story, who posted this clip on YouTube, STEVE DOOCY INSULTED RONALD REAGAN.

Bob “A-peeling Guy” Golub’s brilliant YouTube description:

In 1988 I went to the White House when Steve Doocy was a local reporter in Washington DC. He was assigned to cover me on the streets of Washington selling and giving out my Lucky Potatoes.(See my Lucky Potatoe video.) I was trying to give a Potatoe to Ronald Reagan because he was sick. On the way to the White House Steve Doocy said Reagan is a nut that will forget it anyway. I don’t remenber every he said but it was nasty shit about President Reagan. How he is some Republican.BULL SHIT! Talk about the Godfather of the Republican party that way and now he dances to everything they want him to say. Oh, I have most of the video. FAKE

I did give one of my lucky potatoe’s to the Redskins before going to the White House. Redskins won the Superbowl that year.

Wonkette DEMANDS Steve Doocy’s resignation. His life has been one nasty, daywalking insult, to Ronald Reagan, the greatest American since Increase Mather.

Steve “Dochbag” Doocy is a fake I have proof and he is Liar!! [YouTube]

“One potat-ah, two potat-ah, three potat-ah…conservative wingnut media WHORE!”
It still works, right?

slappypaddy June 12, 2009 at 4:01 pm

what a doocy-bag! (sorry. obvious, i know. probably told a thousand times a day. but easy. too easy to resist, just like one of them christian evangelical small-town girls. oh, those were the days… those were the lays… sorry again. asleep at the switch.)

queeraselvis v 2.0 June 12, 2009 at 4:01 pm

Dochbag? Is that this year’s knockoff Birkin Bag?

whiskey tango foxtrot June 12, 2009 at 4:02 pm

A-peeling! OMG I CAN’T STOP LAUGHING!

getoffmylawn June 12, 2009 at 4:02 pm

the sweater definitely says he’s currently repressing a major case of teh gay. Also a clear bias for white skins over red skins. Major confession predicted on a future Fox & Friends show….right after the Bruno interview.

This is HUGE!!

You know, it’s tragic when auto-erotic asphyxiation goes wrong and causes brain damage of that severity.

Humpback June 12, 2009 at 4:04 pm

So, is everything ever broadcast in the history of electromagnetic radiation on You-tube?

facehead June 12, 2009 at 4:04 pm

What happens at 0:59 ?

Rukasu June 12, 2009 at 4:05 pm

This would only be funnier if it were NBC4′s Pat Collins doing a story on this

SayItWithWookies June 12, 2009 at 4:05 pm

Hey Steve — Alex Keaton wants his look back.

gurukalehuru June 12, 2009 at 4:06 pm

Potatoes are like the state vegetable of Idaho. Larry Craig (I-daho) is from Idaho. There’s a connection there, somewhere.

TJBeck June 12, 2009 at 4:06 pm

Is that a video or a videoe?

Vartan84 June 12, 2009 at 4:06 pm

Now I know what was missing from my life for so long, a good Increase Mather reference. 10 points!!

drrty martini June 12, 2009 at 4:09 pm

I’m more fascinated by Bob! What are his opinions about the Jews? How does he spell tomato? Did Steve Doocy say “call me!” and then kept making up stories about how he was busy all the time?

gurukalehuru June 12, 2009 at 4:10 pm

[re=338019]Humpback[/re]: Soon, Humpback. Soon.

shortsshortsshorts June 12, 2009 at 4:10 pm

Dan Quayle is writing descriptions for Wonkette now? Well alright.

TJBeck June 12, 2009 at 4:12 pm

[re=338019]Humpback[/re]: Everything but the whitey tape. That’s being held back for juuuust the right moment….. hold….. hold……………

“Steve Doocy said Reagan is a nut and will forget it anyway.”

This makes Doocy much more flat-out perceptive than other journalists, not just at Fox but everywhere. Of course, it’s possible that Reagan just had very, very early-onset Alzheimer’s. Anyway, know how libtards used to love saying that Bush was so stupid that he didn’t know what people in his own administration were doing? Well, this isn’t true at all (look at W.’s guilty countenance), but a horrifying matter of fact is that it was true for Reagan. That’s what made his such a likable, earnest figure. Unlike Nixon, he slept like a baby at night, and his dreams were hard to distinguish from reality.

ManchuCandidate June 12, 2009 at 4:13 pm

Bob Golub must be Dan Quayle. Potatoe?

As for Doocy… Wow. I guess dealing with white skinned potatoes trained him well for his career at Faux (see Gretchen and Not Steve.)

facehead June 12, 2009 at 4:14 pm

You’re all laughing, but it was that segment which landed him this commercial gig:

Come here a minute June 12, 2009 at 4:16 pm

[re=338020]facehead[/re]: That is James von Brunn storming the Fed.

Don’t forget to check out Golub’s Polish Furry videos on YouTube.

Internally valid June 12, 2009 at 4:17 pm

[re=338019]Humpback[/re]: yes.

[re=338014]queeraselvis v 2.0[/re]: Translated into German I believe it means Steve is most assuredly a bag. What is in the bag? Schwänze.

hobospacejunkie June 12, 2009 at 4:20 pm

This is not the first Increase Mather reference, Jim. Are you a secret admirer? I took a grad history class at Univ. of Texas from Michael Hall who wrote a pretty interesting biography of Increase Mather. He didn’t assign his own book but I read for the lulz (actually read it because I was a butt-licker, but still never got even an M.A.) I’m guessing you read the book or else have some early American history degree hiding in your resume somewheres.

Lionel Hutz Esq. June 12, 2009 at 4:21 pm

It is a shame that the video cuts before you see Doocy blowing the station manager to get this assignment.

InsidiousTuna June 12, 2009 at 4:22 pm

More important discussion than Doocebag:

Who wants to go drink with me tonight at Fox and Hounds? I want to drink and sit on the patio and generally just be a lazy bastard, and I want you fuckers to come along. Any takers?

Lionel Hutz Esq. June 12, 2009 at 4:30 pm

Just remember kids, you can’t spell Douche without a little Doocy.

paintitblack June 12, 2009 at 4:49 pm

[re=338033]lizard scum[/re]: My dad has Alz, and I can assure everyone that, in some cases, it starts very slowly and takes a long, long time until final stages of addlepation. I was/am quite convinced that St. Ronnie had Alz prolly before he was even elected the first time. My dad usta be in sales, and even today – when he’s lucid – he can still “work the room” and be quite entertaining. Agreed that St. R polly slept well & had no clue. Still hate the bastard, though. No excuse for it.

Cape Clod June 12, 2009 at 5:00 pm

I bet if the Redskins got rid of their racist logo and put a red potato on their helmets their merchandising totals would go up. On the other hand, if they put Steve Douchy’s face on their helmets, they would have an astonishing increase in head injuries.

Jukesgrrl June 12, 2009 at 5:36 pm

[re=338029]drrty martini[/re]: My sentiments eggs-actly! I’d ask him about Sotomayor; I’ll bet he doesn’t find her a-peeling enough to receive a good-luck potatoe.

sezme June 12, 2009 at 5:44 pm

[re=338034]ManchuCandidate[/re]: No, spud orthography is the true test of a Republican. Get Doocy to spell it, then we’ll know where his loyalties really lie. Also, where is his birth certificate?

Mr Blifil June 12, 2009 at 6:04 pm

“The Quarterback?” Wasn’t Joe Theisman the quarterback for the Redskins then? Or if not was Steve Doocy so busy buying gay sweaters he couldn’t be bothered to find out “the quarterback’s” name? And may I now have back the 2 minutes of my life I just spent watching a potato video?

God, Country, and Jail June 12, 2009 at 6:18 pm

Phony “putatuh” pronunciation.

Sangwi Ddong Chim June 12, 2009 at 6:31 pm

At the 0:59 mark “Bob the Lucky Potato Guy” is out in the streets, in a suit, doing what appears to be some sort of curbside preaching. Since I don’t know a goddamn thing about the “A-Peeling” Steve Doocy, and pray to the glorious Joe Barton I never do, that is the only interesting part of the clip.
Since when are Wonkette’s comments used for invites to places called “Fox and Hounds”? Don’t you have craigslist.org or ashleymadison.com where you live? Purge, Jim, purge!

El Pinche June 12, 2009 at 7:34 pm

This is why Doocy is Journalism.

AnnieGetYourFun June 12, 2009 at 9:32 pm

Huh. You usually think of talking heads as getting more polished with age, rather than more strained and insane.

Can O Whoopass June 13, 2009 at 1:54 am

You sure STEVE DOOCY isn’t really von Brunn before he was shot at the Holocaust Museum? Same genes.

MrsNateSilver June 13, 2009 at 8:57 am

Just curious, what distinguishes Increase from Cotton in the title race for “best American”? Is it because his name is a verb and the latter’s is a noun?

hobospacejunkie June 13, 2009 at 9:24 am

[re=338406]MrsNateSilver[/re]: Increase Mather was the Last American Puritan. Cotton was just some young guy.

J June 14, 2009 at 12:11 am

Cough: he’s so gaaaaay: cough. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

norbizness June 14, 2009 at 5:47 pm

This must have been when Doocy the Younger, recipient of Fox News welfare, was but a mere asexually produced spore from Captain Christmas.
