[ dissolve to set ]
Steve Doocy: Welcome back to the third hour of “Fox and Friends”! I’m Steve Doocy. With me, as always, is Gretchen Carlson and Brian Kilmeade!
Gretchen Carlson: Morning!
Brian Kilmeade: Happy Monday!
Steve Doocy: Well, we ALMOST had a government shutdown!
Gretchen Carlson: Ohhhh, that was CLOSE! [ she laughs ]
Brian Kilmeade: WOW!
Steve Doocy: Late Friday night, John Boehner rescued a budget plan, which meant NO government workers would be sent home.
Gretchen Carlson: I’ll tell you who I would send home —
Steve Doocy: Oh, don’t say it, Gretchen…
Gretchen Carlson: No, no, no! President… Obama!
Steve Doocy: Oh, here she goes!
Gretchen Carlson: No! I’m sorry, but he is NOT… a leader. He needs to take… a time-out.
Brian Kilmeade: I mean, we almost had the FIRST government shutdown in the HISTORY of this country!
Gretchen Carlson: Is that — is that true?
Brian Kilmeade: Oh, I just assumed.
Steve Doocy: Our — well, how about we DON’T assume? Let’s ask our fact checker! Lou?
[ cut to the off-camera area, where a war veteran checks a few sheets of papers, then salutes the anchors ]
Gretchen Carlson: Our fact checker Lou, always keeping us honest! [ she laughs ]
Steve Doocy: So the government ISN’T shut down, but here’s a program I WOULDN’T mind seeing shut down — Michelle Obama’s anti-childhoood obesity task force!
Gretchen Carlson: Ohhhh, thank you! Okay, FIRST of all — when I hear “task force”, I get scared!
Brian Kilmeade: What? Uh-huh!
Steve Doocy: If kids hear there’s a TASK FORCE at school, maybe they stay home SICK!!
Brian Kilmeade: Kids scare easy. I remember when I was in high school, I heard a rumor that our janitor was a serial killer! And I was so scared, I stayed home sick for an entire MONTH! I missed out on a LOT of vocab — [ sadly ] I still don’t know what “eclectic” means.
Steve Doocy: And, also, maybe this is just me — but what’s so wrong with a few FAT KIDS in school?
Gretchen Carlson: THANK YOU for saying that! Okay, I LOVE fatties!! Alright? They’re FUNNY!!
Brian Kilmeade: They are funny, they are so eclectic!
Steve Doocy: Hey, absolutely! Here’s a scary question: When there are NO fat kids, who’s gonna play the comic relief in Disney movies?
Gretchen Carlson: Yeah, you know what? I will tell you who!
Brian Kilmeade: Uh-oh!
Steve Doocy: Uh-oh! Be careful, Gretchen!
Gretchen Carlson: No, no! Mexicans!
Steve Doocy: Look out!
Gretchen Carlson: No, no, no — it’s true! When American kids get too skinny, chubby Mexicans will take American acting jobs! Okay? Just look at the kid on “Modern Family”!
Steve Doocy: Who is great! He’s great!
Gretchen Carlson: But, but maybe soon… it won’t be the eagle on the American flag… it will be the… [ thinking ] What’s a Mexican bird?
Brian Kilmeade: A burrito.
Gretchen Carlson: That’s not a bird.
Brian Kilmeade: Ah — yeah! [ he chuckles ] A chicken burrito!
Steve Doocy: Well! Scary stuff! Joining us now, she’s the President of the Eagle Coalition Fireworks Emporium in Yuma, Arizona. Please welcome… Sandy Blunt!
[ cut to Sandy Blunt, Border War Expert, on satellite ]
Sandy Blunt: Proud to be here. Proud to be an American.
Brian Kilmeade: So what’s new on the border war, Sandy?
Sandy Blunt: Well, you know… we all know about the dangers of anchor babies.
Gretchen Carlson: Anchor babies, of course, being illegal immigrants coming to America, who have their babies on our soil, making them U.S. citizens.
Brian Kilmeade: Oh!
Steve Doocy: SO scary!
Brian Kilmeade: So scary…
Sandy Blunt: Well… now there is a NEW threat on our doorsteps: Mexicans are kidnapping pregnant American women, and taking them to Mexico! Then… when the women give birth… their beautiful babies… will be… I’m sorry! Mexicans!
Brian Kilmeade: [ blinking ] So you’re saying…?
Sandy Blunt: REVERSE ANCHOR BABIES!! Undercover Mexicans in America! You know — known as A-Merx-icans!
Steve Doocy: Aye carumba!
Brian Kilmeade: Wow. Thanks, Sandy. Scary stuff… scary stuff.
Steve Doocy: Now, there’s been a lot of talk aout BIRTH CERTIFICATES recently, so I thought it would be fun, you know, to all bring in OUR birth certificates, just to show how easy it is?
Gretchen Carlson: Yeah! Yeah!
Steve Doocy: Here’s mine! [ he holds it up ]
Gretchen Carlson: Here’s mine! [ she holds it up ]
Brian Kilmeade: And here’s mine. [ he holds up a Dave and Buster’s gift certificate ]
Steve Doocy: I’m, uh — I’m not sure that’s it, Brian!
Brian Kilmeade: But it has my name on it.
Gretchen Carlson: Uh — it’s from Dave and Buster’s!
Brian Kilmeade: Mmm… but I got it on my birthday, so it counts!
Steve Doocy: Alright, let’s take another quick break. But, first, our fact checkers have finished combing over the first two hours of the show, and have a few corrections.
