Friday, May something or other

This site was launched by a group that Bill O'Reilly compared to the Nazi propogandist Joseph Goebbels. He also said that Amnesty International is a far left group that has recently declared war on America. I guess that turns quite a few Americans into traitors. He also called the ACLU a terrorist organization. Nuance, I guess, is treason to O'Reilly. I actually think Fox News is great, because it's where uneducated Americans get their news, and they are heartened to see supposed upper class people agreeing with them. These people clearly need a pick-me-up from time to time. It's really no use complaining about O'Reilly and Hannity and Asman (who this week referred to the Republican party as "We"). When a war is started and it's proponents start screaming "Holy shit the sky is falling we're surrounded by traitors," maybe you shouldn't pay much attention to them. But, like I said, this is where people who think Aristotle was a pussy listen for their opinions. Clearly, it's no different for Rush Limbaugh. I had a friend who said I should listen to Limbaugh because I would like some things he said, and to this day I can't tell if he was being facetious or not. These types who listen to Limbaugh are deluded anyhow, into thinking that white males are endangered in this country, that there's some vast conspiracy within the United States, full of treasonous homosexuals and liberals, vying to take the country down. Please. So does it count as a meta-joke when the joketellers (Limbaugh, O'Reilly, their supporters) aren't aware that they're telling a joke? Or is that what makes it a meta-joke in the first place? And is meta-joke the greatest, dumbest non-word ever created?
