Awww … Media Matters’ “Senior Fellow” Eric Boehlert is sick and tired of Fox News mentioning that pesky Benghazigate. According to him, it’s nothing more than part of a grand right-wing nutjob conspiracy:
according to TVEyes, Fox has mentioned “Benghazi” how many times this month? a) 400 b) 700 c) 1000 d) 1,200 [answer: d] #RWbubble

16-year-old Bethany Bowra wasn’t about to let Boehlert get away with it:
@ericboehlert So we shouldn’t investigate the murder of four Americans.Instead we’ll play inside your liberal bubble and praise Obama.

The truth is more than a hack like Boehlert can handle, so, being the big man he is, he lashed out at Bowra:
nice example of how utterly clueless Fox viewers are; #benghazi MT @bethanybowra So we shouldn’t investigate the murder of four Americans.
— Eric Boehlert (@EricBoehlert) November 26, 2012
Big mistake.
@ericboehlert is getting owned by a 16 yr old.

And how:
@ericboehlert doesn’t have the guts to answer me yet he can call the SEALs gutless and mock the #Benghazi investigation.Coward.
— Bethany Bowra (@BethanyBowra) November 26, 2012
@ericboehlert Should we investigate it or shouldn’t we?
— Bethany Bowra (@BethanyBowra) November 26, 2012
@ericboehlert “responded” by calling me clueless.Still no dialogue on why he believes these things.Yet he calls ME clueless?
— Bethany Bowra (@BethanyBowra) November 26, 2012
do you honestly NOT know there’s a Benghazi investigation underway? #trytokeepup MT @bethanybowra Should we investigate it or shouldn’t we?
— Eric Boehlert (@EricBoehlert) November 26, 2012
Hey Eric, #trytokeepup with the fact that your arguments are being demolished by a whip-smart young woman.
@ericboehlert You’re totally missing my point.If MSNBC mentioned it that much you wouldn’t call it politicizing.
— Bethany Bowra (@BethanyBowra) November 26, 2012
@rcoe1403 @ericboehlert I’m sheep but those who call Obama “Lord and Savior” aren’t.Got it.
— Bethany Bowra (@BethanyBowra) November 26, 2012
@ericboehlert It’s wrong for Fox to mention the investigation often?Shouldn’t we WANT to know what’s going on?
— Bethany Bowra (@BethanyBowra) November 26, 2012
@palmerkiss @ericboehlert He’s still ignoring my point.
— Bethany Bowra (@BethanyBowra) November 26, 2012
@ericboehlert Again:Why is it wrong for them to mention an “active investigation”?
— Bethany Bowra (@BethanyBowra) November 26, 2012
And doing a poor job of it… RT “@scriptcomes1st: @toddkincannon @brandondarby @ericboehlert @bethanybowra Flexing his internet muscles.”
— Bethany Bowra (@BethanyBowra) November 26, 2012
Winner? Bethany Bowra. By a landslide.
@ericboehlert Soo…you don’t want to answer my question.Just call me clueless and you’re done?
— Bethany Bowra (@BethanyBowra) November 26, 2012
In the Boehlert-verse, that qualifies as civil discourse.
Naturally, Boehlert’s admirers chimed in with insults aimed at Bowra:
@ericboehlert @bethanybowra By “WE”, she means her and her “Fox and Friends” – THEY are the investigative reporters!
— krbmjb05 (@krbmjb05) November 26, 2012
@ericboehlert @bethanybowra Its more about Fox making shit up and using conspiracy theories and not actually reporting what is happening.
— Robert Krause (@RAKrause80) November 26, 2012
@ericboehlert @bethanybowra i think you have managed to neutralize her eric, but please do be gentle she is 16 and likely southern ignorant
— palmer kiss (@palmerkiss) November 26, 2012
But their bullying was easily deflected by Bowra’s fellow conservatives, who rallied to her defense and put Boehlert in his place.
Say, @ericboehlert, when you finish with @bethanybowra I can sign my 8 yr old on so you can attack him personally. #NameCallingIsFun

Don’t worry guys, @ericboehlert picking on a 16 year old is just him rounding out his day of kicking puppies & tripping the elderly

Because he’s a spineless asshole. RT @brandondarby: Why is @ericboehlert being ugly to 16-yr-old @bethanybowra?
— Redness (@maryclimer) November 26, 2012
Bethany is a teenage girl. Boehlert just acts like one. RT @brandondarby Why is @ericboehlert being ugly to 16-yr-old @bethanybowra?
— Todd Kincannon (@ToddKincannon) November 26, 2012
Bam.
@bethanybowra @rcoe1403 @ericboehlert Stand strong. My daughter is your age. You have much in common. Remember: No real man attacks a woman.
— Kevin Prather (@DrKPrather) November 26, 2012
@bethanybowra Glad I didn’t say @ericboehlert shld pick on someone his own age. Obviously U are more mature. @thetamericanist @instapundit

@dipcity @ericboehlert @bethanybowra BB seems smarter than the average 16 y/o- indeed, smarter than most of msnbc’s prime-time host lineup.

Beating up on young ladies like @bethanybowra? #Hamas, please meet @ericboehlert. You’re both full of skull-hammering idiocy.
— Steve Woodward (@WoodwardSteve) November 26, 2012
Hi @ericboehlert! That girl, @bethanybowra, has more intelligence and class in her entire body than you have in your pinkie toe.
— Redness (@maryclimer) November 26, 2012
You’re a very bright young woman, @bethanybowra. Don’t allow grumpy ol’ @ericboehlert to discourage you.
— Brandon Darby (@brandondarby) November 26, 2012
Endorsed. RT @brandondarby: You’re a very bright young woman, @bethanybowra. Don’t allow grumpy ol’ @ericboehlert to discourage you.

Hear, hear! If Bowra is any indication of the future of conservatism, the future looks very bright indeed.
