Two of FOX News worst actors are Barnes & Morton. An evening of WWE Raw provides better acting and character then these two. Every year they put together best/worst of the year. Newshounds have part of this years list (it truly is comedy).

Last year they put Santorum as 04's up and comer, ahead of Obama.
How wrong things can turn out. Santie wrote a book and even got the best photo ops position during the inauguration, yet somehow (maybe his 1850's politics) he seems to be heading for the door.
Not to take out victory in advance but there is a "Santorum lose, Santorum lose"-dance in the making.

After another trip to D.C. it becomes clear that not that much has changed since the last time I visited your sweet land.

Varning!! If you see yourself as all american -applepie-land of the free home of the brave-beacon of hope yada yada yada without any sense of humor and lacking the ability to notice when it's serious and when it's not, maybe you should stop right here as....

 

SFO PRESENTS
SAME OLD SAME OLD

The Pentagon gift shop still only has Ron & Nancy stuff. I wanted Bill & Hill, I guess I have to go to a non-denial sight for those.

American $port$ still has no soul.
Shame on you Johnny.

"We haven't had another terrorist attack in the US" is still considered a wiretaping debate.

Deer Park bottled water still tastes exactly like tap water 'a la Stockholm.

Tucker Carlson is still on TV. Why? No really, why?
I guess MSNBC is holding out for Tucks first debate win. Now that's abstinence!

People still drink Diet Pepsi with their fries.
Talk about being in denial.

CSI, Law & Order and 24 are still just TV-shows (hear that Cal Thomas).

Cowboys are still gay. But now they have a movie, at least some progress.
Kenny C. kickin it
loud and proud

The coffee is still far to weak for a eurotrash guy like myself.

Brian Leetch still plays hockey, and he beat the Caps as well. Hats off to Brian.

If you feel that all the above is unfair, that maybe it was written by a godhatin'-commie -fag, then maybe a taste of todays FOX News Graphic will cheer you up.

Wolfs in the woods. The left-wing agendas attacks on freedom and how the President is fighting it.

Speaking of the wolfs in the woods. Remember that '04 TV ad. Man!!
The US is still the only country where you can get away with that crap without being called on it.

Something that has changed however is the coverage of the Tsunami - one year later. I remember when it happened.
The moments of silence during the football games (american football games) were for Reggie White. No breaking news flash, no lets cut to the news. Something that huge on the other side of the globe can't intervene in back to back NFL coverage. Right.
Thank god for BBC World.
But it was different this year, I guess over 200.000 killed and millions homeless will have that effect.

FOX News likes to use military language when talking about... well anything. This is from their bogus War on Christmas™
Thank you Newshounds

"locked in a legal war"
"all of those concepts have come under fire"
"to drive religion & its symbols out of the American public square"
"tour of the religious battlefield"
"every Christmas the arguing gets louder"
"fighting words"
"now even the pledge of allegiance has come under fire"
"the final battleground is the Supreme Court"
"individuals join with groups such as ACLU to start confrontations"
"religious supporters blinked"
"Elkhart, Indiana, didn't ask for a religious fight ... but they got one"
"why do these battles keep raging?"
"Americans are now fighting back."
"[a strategy] to beat the ACLU & its allies at their own game"
"[the Supreme Court] has been central to the battles over the past 60 years"

It seems FOX News War on Christmas™ looks more and more like a War on War™.

Lets add "rioting in Copenhagen"
to the list of...

Shamelessly bad
news reporting of 2005

During the riots in Paris there were also gangs rioting in Copenhagen, Denmark (not true)

"Criminals" resisted arrest and were chased by police, they got electrocuted and that started the riots in Paris (not true)

Shots were fired at rescue helicopters after Katrina (not true)

There's still a couple of days left of 2005, maybe the Washington Times/National Review/Weekly Standard can give us a couple of more to put on our list of...

Shamelessly bad
news reporting of 2005

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

The slow and painful death of PNAC

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Remember that Robert Novak didn't choose to go to FOX News. He had no other option after getting kicked to the curb by CNN.
Again FOX News feasts on the leftovers.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Brokeback Mountain is not a "Hollywood movie". Those usually have "reps" like Denzel, Arnold, Mel or Bruce in the title role.
Ooh the irony.
I bet Duke C. likes the gay cowboy movie?

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Smart
Not so smart (but kinda fun)

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

The austrian football club Sturm Graz is thinking about changing the name of their stadium from the Arnold Schwarzenegger Stadion to something a little less "controversial"

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Here's a picture that will prepare us for our DC-trip (next week). Christmas in America is like... like... well nothing else in the world.


Dancing flowers, man (!?!)
you guys are crazy.
Gotta love it!!

Fun with Scott McMlellan
(video further down)

Must watch FOX News.
FOX News good.

Me like FOX News.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Have hilarious TV-show,
interested in buying?

No word yet on when FOX will fire the marketing team that still can't "find its audience".

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

If heads doesn't roll over this, I don't know when they ever will.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

An angry Hannity barks about Harvard and Georgetown getting cash with "strings attached", but forgets to mention that FOX News is owned by the very same donor.
Dance little puppet, dance.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Lets pretend we didn't see this one.
All is well, all is well.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Ooops, they did it again.
(tackiness pause)

We wanted to get a fourth Dear Leader joke in December and we didn't have to look any further then to the RNC website and it's new talking points video "Retreat and Defeat".
All we heard was "If you retreat, that equals defeat" (get it? it's clever).
But Slate found another disturbing item.

THE WAR
ON
CHRISTMAS

UPDATE

biiiig graphics, biiig

Will Bill O'Reilly boycott the News Corp. holiday party?

"We do believe that christmas is trying to acquire nuclear weapons from Africa"

Sam Seder makes christmas ham out of Bob Knight. Don't know what a christmas ham is? You christmas hater you.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

"After the interview, a Fox News Channel publicist calls to tell me that 'the whole Fox News media bias angle' won't make a very interesting story. She helpfully advises me to stay away from it."

Fun with Neil Cavuto

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Dear Leader doesn't like people questioning his agenda, and you don't like it when Dear Leader is not happy.

In other news:
Neal Gabler goes "on vacation".

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Richard Pryor
1940 - 2005

Truly classic SNL clip >>

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Happy Fitzmas or Merry Fitzmas??

The cartoon that made Bill O'Reilly angry. Ha!!

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Two senators criticizes their own party, one Republican and one Democrat. Guess which one the MSM decided was newsworthy and which one wasn't?
More lazy lazy "journalists"

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

The draw for the World Cup '06 group stages just finished.

Group B
England
Paraguay
Trinidad & Tobago
Sweden

All groups here. C looks hard to get out of, but ours shouldn't be that impossible. We should win over T&T and Paraguay and of course England can't beat us (11 straight).

A second soldier from the SSG has died from his injuries caused by the roadside bombing in Afghanistan a couple of weeks ago.
More info to come.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Did the man shot on a Miami plane say he had a bomb or did he not (.mp3).
Even the non-political news are now talking points in the nation of Dear Leader.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

It's funny because it's true.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

We're not ones to use names when talking about "the other side" (ha!!) but our good friend Bill "agent dildo" O'Reilly is shocked that Mann Coulter gets booed.

O'Reilly continues his BS about things he knows nothing about.
Let me tell you Bill, what everybody is thinking, ONE terrorist attack and you're some sort of experts on dealing with evil. Give us a f**king break!!
This is why billions of people all over the world, people who were anti-Al Qaida and the Taliban when you were still holding their backs, hate your guts. And that's YOUR guts BO, not america and everyone in it. Not the freedom, liberty or economic opportunities and all that other crap you keep repeating to yourself, but you BO.
You and all your lying and hypocritical buddies who are f**king up the world on a daily basis just so you can get your hands on that sweet sweet C A $ H !!

The Nobel Prize is to be handed out in two days just a couple of blocks from where s.f.o. hangs out.

Some classic clips from the history of the Nobel Prize. All taken from svt.se and are Realplayer, except the Pinters lecture.

Harold Pinters lecture. He was to ill to come in person to Stockholm. Which was maybe for the best, since Pinter is not a fan of either Bush or Blair and lets them have it in his lecture. One could only imagine the nervous crowd at the Nobel Gala when it would have been Harolds time to receive his award. Michael Moore at the Oscars x 100.

More clips of literature winners.

Winston Churchill
1953 in swedish, some nice Churchill pics
John Steinbeck
1962 no sound, sweet Steinbeck hairdue
Toni Morrison
1993 in english, Morrison can't stand still
Dario Fo
1997 in swedish and italian

Mo Rocca helps Keith to fight FOX News anti-christmas message.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Clooney said he agreed to debate O'Reilly on the Charlie Rose show on PBS, Rose had it all set up, they just needed O'Reilly to agree to a time and a date.
Big bad Billy O'Reilly said NO, his excuse was that Rupert Murdoch would not let him do it.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Dear Leaders favorite John Gibson goes bananas over Neil Gabler.
Only on a fair and balanced "news" network can one commentator get airtime to bash another commentator from the same network. Truly a circle of life!!

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

In America liberal means lefty. (??)

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Question: If the Democrats are so divided in their opposition to the prez, doesn't that mean that he should have it easier to get his ideas through on how this war should be fought and won (again)?
And with all parts of government and the press on your side shouldn't it be even easier to fight and win this war (again).

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Neal, who onces claimed "of course FOX News is a right-wing network", does it again.
On FOX: War on Christmas is BS

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

The founder of IKEA Ingvar Kamprad is named richest person in... Switzerland.

Fun with Kent Jones (.mp3)
Genius!!

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Sometimes we don't have to make up our TODAYS FOX NEWS GRAPHICS "segment" .

I'm sure that the 1% of the US population that actually watch this crap are really scared.
I'm also sure that the liberal FOX News marketing department is shaking in its boots.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Michael Ware is a bit of a loon and he's hard to take serious because of his Croc Hunter accent (look who's talking "ja ja"), but he knows what he's talking about (unlike anyone else in the punditory universe) .

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Some examples from the "Dictionary of Republicanisms"

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

FOX News change their "Holiday ornament" to "Christmas ornament".

From C&L and how it looked earlier

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Getting ready for prez Bush to speak in Annapolis.

We've done military service so we know what they're all about. Sleep when you can.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

warning: this is just to much irony for one person to handle in one day, please check with your doctor before continuing reading

OUR COVERAGE OF THE WAR ON CHRISTMAS CONTINUES
big graphics, biiiig

Today: It seems the channel known as FOX Newschannel sells something called "Holiday Ornaments" on their website.

This is the type of activities that will lead to the end of all things american.

We're not the kind of site that urges it's readers to boycott stuff just to get what it wants, but we forbid you to watch this anti-american newschannel until they stop this insanity.
