Bush & Company

But, it’s not real news, you explain in vain to a dwindling trickle of Republican friends, on a steady IV drip of Hannity, Gibson and Hume—now available without a prescription on Fox News. But these fair and balanced viewers wouldn’t want their news any other way. Would you like a little quid with your pro quo, Mr. Giuliani?

To be sure, the cum laude graduates of the Roger Ailes and Rupert Murdoch College of Clowns & Buffoons keep the audience entertained as they juggle facts, tweak red noses of half-truths and bitch-slap one another with rubber mallets of propaganda—all while riding unicycles of opinion.

The News Corp. cable network peddling We Distort, You Decide has been earning its exclusive interviews with Junior Bush, Dick Cheney and Condi Rice ever since the right-wing think tanks first found their parrots an echo chamber.

Inside the GOP circus tent fueled by elephant effluvia, Fox & Friends perform their daily high-wire act, as Michelle Malkin text-messages Michael Savage with the news: WMDs have been found in Iraq!

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, viewers can feel their breath quicken.

Face it, Malkin, you self-appointed liberal-media-bias-girl: Fox isn’t fooling anyone who doesn’t want to be fooled.
