America Held Hostage: Fox News 'The Five'

This hilarious bit is why Fox News The Five is holding viewers hostage (figuratively and willingly) at 5p. The ensemble show is smart to showcase its cast like a reality show develops characters. Thursday The Five fleshed out the hosts' personalities by linking Republican presidential candidates' high school yearbook photos making the news to their own dweeby yearbook shots.
Bob Beckel
Beckel on Dana Perino:  "She looks like a hostage." Greg Gutfeld: "I didn't know Dana was in The Princess Bride."
Gutfeld on Gutfeld: "The hair was the inspiration for the modern ballistic helmet and can withstand extreme weather conditions as low as fifty degrees below zero."
Beckel on the photo submitted by Eric Bolling: "It looks like Boogie Nights!"

    Rats! I am sorry if I said it incorrectly.

  8. I linked it! Did anyone else get that Bob Beckel's hostage comment about Dana Perino was meant to evoke Elizabeth Smart?  I'll bet he hopes nobody got it...
