Fox pulls a real boner (...Yeah, I know. What else is new, right?)

...And, of course, we get Fox up here too... and apparently some of my fellow citizens weren't terribly impressed by the rhetoric:
Alright, alright - to be fair:
The segment was just poorly timed. I mean, in comparison to most of the bile Fox spews, this was pretty tame stuff - but, unfortunately, they aired it (out of ignorance) right after four soldiers in Afghanistan had been put in body bags by an IED.
That being said, I'm not at all offended but left (as usual) with a quirked eyebrow at the meta argument. Is Fox, like, allergic to conducting any research at all? Canada's military is neither sufficiently well funded nor staffed to sustain a ridiculous war of attrition, as the government has thus far (thank goodness) not allocated an arbitrarily large black budget to them. Perhaps the American military industrial complex has the resources and manpower to occupy the Middle East indefinitely. That's terrific. Much of the rest of te world isn't interested in engaging in such nonsensical affairs, and I think that's a pretty positive thing.
...fox really does think that the universe revolves around America, doesn't it?

I can see the bright green strip of grass beneath the wall, and the clear blue sky above the wall, and sunlight everywhere. Life is beautiful. Let the future generations cleanse it of all evil, oppression and violence, and enjoy it to the full."

Signature ? How ?
Jesus fucking Christ!!!!!! I hope those useless cocksucking shitbags on Fox News will wallow in their own piss and vomit!!!!! I want to shit on their faces!!!!! I hope those fucktards get cattleprods rammed up their arses!!!!! Four brave Canadians who served in the armed forces die and this is the pig shit that Fox dishes out. Aaaaarrrrrgghhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!
Now that I've got that out of my system, I would truly like to see Canadian programming reach down into the gutter and give it right back. I wanna see Peter Mansbridge get medieval. I wanna see hockey players practice by shooting pucks at a Fox News emblem during the Stanley Cup playoffs. I want Stompin' Tom Connors to stomp on Rupert Murdoch's face.
Let's all get a Molson, eh?
I've seen other clips from "Red Eye", and I gather being a bunch of jingoistic, retarded jackasses is what they do.
How that's entertaining in any way I've no idea, but then that well be why it's on during the wee hours of the morning.
"Anyone can repress a woman, but you need 'dictated' scriptures to feel you're really right in repressing her. In the same way, homophobes thrive everywhere. But you must feel you've got scripture on your side to come up with the tedious 'Adam and Eve not Adam and Steve' style arguments instead of just recognising that some people are different." - Douglas Murray
It wasn't that bad (well, in comparison to the outright racism, bigotry and homophobia showcased on, say, the O'Reilly factor or Glenn Beck's program, anyway). The timing was shit, though.

Yes, it was that bad. We're over there doing those assholes a favour. We've had our first losses in decades because they had to start an illegal war and can't shoot straight, and begged us for help. And THEN they have the fucking GALL to make fun of us for saving their asses?
Fuck that.

I couldn't even make it all the way through the first video before my brain exploded with aneurisms, triggered by the realization that this clip was actually broadcasted to the cable-watching nation!!!
I think that there are lots of reasons to be proud of being an American. But the FOX Propaganda Channel definitely isn't one of them. Those guys make me embarrassed to be associated with them, even if only by nationality.
Then again, what else can be said about the only television network that is still helping media sluts Ann Coulter and Michelle Malkin promote themselves? Then, of course, is Billo the Clown's "War On Christmas," Sean Hannity's tall tales, and the accusations against the current President and First Lady of the alleged "terrorist fist bump" during the campaign....
...geez...
...is there any end to this nonsense?

No end visible at the moment. Hang on to your hats boys and girls. This shite WILL get worse before it gets any better.
