A Daily Double of Idiots and Liars:
1. Fox Fictional News's "Fox and Fumbducks" morning show. They laughed when they heard that Planned Parenthood offers pap smears, std tests, cervical cancer tests and birth control consultations and prescriptions as 97% of their services.
"All things you can get at Walgreen's," one Fox Fumbduck said.
"Yeah, at Walgreen's," the other two cackled.
Stephen Colbert took the best shot at them, stating he'd had his colonoscopy in the candy aisle and had to wait an hour in the coffee aisle before he got the pictures. He ordered enlargements for the rest of his family to see in the photo dept.
I know Fox News watchers are no brainiacs, but one would hope that even those low grades are too smart to buy this crap.
2. Senator John Kyl of Death Panel state Arizona said that 90% of Planned Parenthood's activities were abortions. When called on this blatant lie, only 3% is abortions, Kyl said his statements "were not meant to be factual." Discerning Senate watchers have always known this.
I can't blame this on the Tea Baggers. Kyl claims to be a Tea Bagger, but he was an A-Hole long before he ever had a cup of Caustic Comment Tea.
John Kyl, "I lie, therefore I am." |
