Did I comment on the fucking satire, no I commented on the fantasy aspect of it. Hey, maybe Dan Rather would still have a job today if he'd just been quick to claim the fake memos about George W. Bush being AWOL from the National Guard was "satire". Fantasy is one thing, Mr. hat. It's quite another for an alleged journalist to publish fantasy as news. Welcome...my friends...to Fantasy Island

I don't give two shits about news, my comment only had to do with Ed's own fantasy about liberals.

Liberals do tend to deny reality. I mean if this were the first time a journalist just flat made something up like Bush being AWOL, then maybe you'd have a point. But the liberal journalists do tend to just write whatever they want.

But the liberal journalists do tend to just write whatever they want. Not to mention the standard practice of just changing the facts if they don't fit the agenda, i.e. the consistent misreporting of the facts about Afghanistan, Gitmo, Obamacare, the deficit and just about everything else Obama and company have bungled... The mainstream media in it's current form is little more than an apparatus tasked with covering up Obama's lies, incompetence and malicious intent...

It was mentioned in yesterday's thread that the Esquire article was spoof and satire.

ed1066, Tasked with covering up Obama's lies, incompetence and malicious intent.... Wow... Fantasy Island is in the eye of the beholder. You feel Obama has been totally honest with the American people? And completely competent handling the economy, the wars, etc? Really?

As far as competence in handling the economy, the wars etc. - Much much more so than your friend Bush which, by comparison, does not say much. As for Honesty with the American people - again the same prognosis.

Do you feel the mainstream media is tasked with a cover-up? - ed1066 Yes, they have been complicit in covering for Democrat adminstrations and serving as their propaganda arms since the 1960s. Any informed study of the media will lead you to the same conclusion...ask yourself why we are fighting three wars, yet you see nothing in the mainstream media about the "anti-war" movement, which was apparently huge when Bush was president and we were fighting two wars...

Not when I read it. Doesn't satire have to be... you know... satirical? Biting? Funny? Recognizable as satire? Probably should've looked at the domain name on the link. ETA: You missed a straggler, Tenn.

This is NOT my thread, this thread is NOT the same subject...I'm not participating in this thread. It was inappropriately moved. And the thread title violates the amended headline / topic rules.

Why are we fighting three wars, I ask myself.... something to do with 9/11... wait, wait... oh yea, republican ( Bush) had hard-on for Hussein but no proof he was involved then, made up fear stories through his special new office that the "liberal media" soaked up without fact checking - even though no fly-zone set up and huge intel gathering had been going on for long time. Then liberal media outing of Valery Plame and all that cover-up. Oh and the Rumsfeld micro management and incompetence caused leading Generals to resign because they thought they could better help their troops that way. Magic Mushroom clouds touted by Rice and Portable biological weapons labs from (what was his name). Then of course, you know, after years of making war by Bush nothing was won despite his landing on an aircraft carrier deck with 'Mission Accomplished" crap. Oh, did I mention that the commander and Chief is in charge of all armed services - or did he just crap-out on his responsibilities. Oh yea, I also forgot to mention that he went into Iraq without a plan or, at least one that had any relation to plans already hashed out for years prior to his Shock and Awe. Shall I go on - but, hey, create your own "facts" to protect your own cowardice. Remember, two wars when Bush was in office - he started it and failed at it. So guess it must have been a Liberal president who got us to where we are - Ed1066 wake up your on Fantasy Island
