Leave it to Jeffrey Lord to blow his CNN gig for using a Nazi salute in a Twitter fight.
It's not that I am particularly sympathetic to Media Matters as they aren't fans of mine. But fascists and Nazis they are not. Jeff can say he's mocking fascism and Nazism all he wants. Kind of reminds me when Dr. Laura repeatedly uttered the n-word and claimed she was mocking racism. Sorry but unless you're Mel Brooks the Nazis & the n-word are no laughing matter and Jeff Lord ain't Mel Brooks. Ditto for Dr. Laura.
Now uttering "Seig Heil!" might make one persona non grata at CNN, but could be welcome with open arms at the Trump White House. It would be a perfect fit.
But if that does not come to pass maybe he'll get a gig with Breitbart. Or maybe RT. Wherever he lands, I'm sure Jeff will land on his feet.
