THE BIG LIE Technique -- Featuring Fred 'Felonious' Barnes Wailing on his Instrument

A POX NEWS EXCLUSIVE:

<SNIP>

FRIDAY, AUGUST 8, 2003

WHAT FRED DOES BEST: It was Mort’s aggressive spinning that grabbed us the most, although Fred ran to make the most desperate remark. On last night’s Special Report, Brit Hume started the panel in orderly fashion; he read off six “false impressions” about Iraq which Al Gore had blamed on the Bush Admin. “Well, some of it was true,” Juan Williams said, agreeing with the things Gore said. And that’s when Barnes began his faking. No, we really aren’t making this up. Yes, the corrupted man said it:

WILLIAMS: Well, some of it was true.
BARNES: I didn’t notice any.

WILLIAMS: Well, I think it’s true when [Gore] says that President Bush led us to believe that somehow Saddam Hussein might have had connections to Al Qaeda—

At this point, Fred cut Williams off. Try to believe that this fake, phony man has reached the point where he’ll actually say this on television:
BARNES (continuing directly): I think Bush said exactly the opposite, consistently! Exactly the opposite!
Amazing, isn’t it? Exactly the opposite! Someone should give Fred a subscription to The New Republic, the journal for which he once honestly toiled before he sold his soul to Mammon......
