Watched Fox News for an hour last night. Saw Bill O'Reilly interview Laura Ingraham. Fvcking Conk lovefest, with both of them using the same lame, hateful euphemisms and epithets for people, policies, organizations, etc., that are used here by my Conkie friends. It was hard to stomach, but I stuck it out. Still, to be fair, I concluded that their anti-Left 69'ing is equaled by Keith Olbermann's disdain for everything Rightie. So there is, after all, some "balance" in the world and there is no such thing anymore as a threat from the "liberal media". They've caught up.
Caught a few minutes of that disheveled Rush lackey, Glenn Beck, too. Dude's in outer space. I hear he has good ratings, as do many of the shows on FOX, but I always greet that with the knowledge that a large segment of their audience are the Roswell-Site 51-gun fondling-Constitution Party-foil rabbit ears-racist-government-conspiracy-Michigan Militia-type mutts that occupy our country's rural areas.
After a pint of Pepto-Bismol, I turned to CBN and watched the 700 Club, the long-running ode to things in the distant past (like Reagan and religion), oozing with Christ-and-Reagan worship and misdirected contempt for all things contemporary or progressive. Pat Robertson is getting old as fvck, too. Couldn't complete sentences, couldn't keep focus. He's lucky he's got that old hag on their with him to prop his octogenerian ass up. I thought about what I would say when he finally dies. I decdided I would just roll my eyes.
After my monthly forays into the rightist media, I exit truly exalted and comfortable that they will never garner respectability with sane, thinking citizens like Me and dbackjon, D1B and houndawg, mainejeff and Appaholic and the rest of the proud CS Progressive Bloc For Coherent Issue Identification and Debate.
