Sean's the gift that keeps on giving

This was really fantastic. Sean has now blamed President Obama for the lack of rebuilding in Katrina devastated New Orleans. This is great because maybe, just maybe, Foxnews will begin being a strong advocate for the people of New Orleans who they abandoned with their President after the storm. What he is referring to is the fact that the current stimulus bill, which he has night after night said is too costly already, doesn't contain any extra money for Hurricane Katrina recovery. Well guess what Sean, Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans in 2005. That was 3 years in which your idol in chief could have fixed that mess but floundered again and again to the point where it is an even bigger mess, in many ways, than it was shortly after Katrina. In all fairness to the stimulus bill, had it included such measures you, Rush and Bill (O'Reilly) would probably have attacked it on those grounds.




Now, while I hate to increase their viewership by adding the video below, it is a great example of how easy it is to produce clip segments so long as you use O Fortuna from Carl Orff's Carmina Burana.

The Reverend Al

So I've been following this Chimpanzee cartoon controversy for a day or so now and I saw the Reverend say this on CNN tonight:
"I guess they thought we were chimpanzees, they will find out we are lions."

I don't mean to needle the Reverend (though I do still bare a bit of anger at the way he went after Howard Dean in 2004) but if you're going to get outraged that someone is depicting you as one kind of animal, does it really make a whole lot of sense to call yourself another kind of animal? Can't they think you're a chimpanzee and find out that you are a human being? Why must they find out you are another animal of the African plains (lions live on the plains right?).

Sorry reverend, but as a History teacher once taught me, even if a mixed metaphor has feathers, it should be derailed.
