They're next, trust me. This whole thing is too funny. I knew stuff like this was coming. You know, even though we all know this stuff has nothing to do with gays, its still being targeted. Its all part of a huge gay backlash that is on its way. Its only going to get worse before it gets better.

My dad, being a republican, totally critisized Kerry and Edwards for their "lovey dovey huggy shit" as he put it. Im not quite sure WHY they haven't been publicly critisized for it, but they sure have been PRIVATELY critisized.

They do realise as well, that bedrock is the name of the lowest rock layer in the crust of the Earth? And it's called that because the show is set way in the past when the lower layers of rock were at the top? OMG THE VERY GROUND WE WALK UPON IS SUGGESTIVE!

Please, it's so blantantly obvious that even a Liberal could figure out!

I know better than this can be done...

*sigh* Looks like nobody's got any clue yet. The author of the article, Andy Borowitz, writes satires on his site The Borowitz Report.

Among his latest satires that have been taken too seriously is the story, Fox News Buys Al-Jazeera.

I think the point was that even if it is satire, it still wasn't honestly surprising. Whether it be the KKK trying to take Barney off the air because the actor who plays Barney is black or whether it be the conservative reverand who attacks the so-called "white supremacy propoganda of the homosexual nazi Teletubbies" there is still going to be a group of uptight asswipes who think the freedom of speach should only pertain to people who share their beliefs.

It was a joke.

I suspected something when I saw this line:

Elsewhere, President Bush announced a budget of $2.57 trillion, most of which will go to paying for last month's inauguration.
