[Maru Kitteh]

I was just reading about the beautiful blushing bride



when a came across a link in the comments that took me to this link:

Which took me to this screenshot:

[fascisthunter]

1. the American Nazi/Fascist Propaganda Network

it doesn't get anymore obvious... nah, it will become more obvious!

[MUAD_DIB]

14. It was just an honest mistake, and the producer has been reprimanded...

bla bla bla...

Usual horse shit, different day.

[notadmblnd]

2. Basement dwellers.How did we know that?

[Maru Kitteh]

3. FAUX. Providing fairness to domestic terrorists and balance to the rapture ready

as Obama ushers in the final days. Woe are we. Prepare thyself.

[Brickbat]

4. I think some of the other militias are like, "If my son handled a gun like that, I'd tan his hide."

And frankly, some of us DUers are thinking that, too.

Some of those guys really do dedicate themselves to living off the land in a scary but disciplined way. This outfit, however, doesn't seem to fall in that category.

[Maru Kitteh]

8. Right now they are living off the court appointed gub'mint provided attorneys.

Farking hypocrites - one and all.

OH! And I remember from AC 360 a bunch of them were drawing unemployment too.

[Warren Stupidity]

5. Looks like an overt act of treason witnessed by at least two other people to me.

When will the people responsible be arrested?

[mod mom]

6. I wonder how law enforcement officers feel about FAUX's term for these domestic terrorists.

[jberryhill]

10. Maybe they can figure out that the word "warriors" is in quotes /nt

[ashling]

7. So they are enemy combatants?

Don't we pu those in ... ah, where is it? OH! GITMO!

[MUAD_DIB]

17. *YEEEESSSSSSSSSS WE DO!

*Unless they are white and Christian; then they get 5 deferments from any war and a ticket to the GOP home office.

[Ignis]

22. Oh, that's golden.

:thumbsup:

[TexasObserver]

9. That photo array suggests Neanderthal didn't die out.

[jberryhill]

11. It looks like it says - Captured 'Warriors' - not - Captured Warriors

But I doubt most of the moran militia is big on understanding sneer quotes.

[mod mom]

12. Those morans(sic) will see it as a legitimization. The quotes don't make the FAUX

okay.

[jberryhill]

15. Yes, thank you for rephrasing what I said. /nt

[Kitty Herder]

16. No, they're not going to understand the sneer quotes.

And that's exactly what Fox is counting on. Fox is starting to scare me. :scared:

[Maru Kitteh]

18. I think much of Faux Noisedom has demonstrated a distinct inability

to utilize proper punctuation or spelling.

[Richard Steele]

38. No, the teabaggers don't understand quotes. They seem to think they're the same as UNDERLINING.

And FauxNews knows that.

[backscatter712]

41. Yeah, I noticed the scare quotes too.

But you're right - the morans don't appreciate such subtleties...

[Bitwit1234]

13. Wonder what they would call a bunch of militia who threatened

to kill someone at Fox News and then when they had the funeral they were going to show up and mow them all down. OH I get it, if you are republican and are going to start a war against Democrats you are a captured warrior....but if you are the other side then you are terrorists. gee gee gee Fox don't you just love them.

[badgerpup]

36. Ummm...satire?

:wtf:

I'm having trouble keeping up here with this double standard...

[mod mom]

19. FAUX also chose to use the word "Captured" over more aptly deserving "arrested".

Thus giving these terrorists more legitimacy. Much thought went into the phrasing & punctuation as to either placate (or inflame) their base.

[Maru Kitteh]

33. Excellent observation. n/t

[Supersedeas]

40. Arrested sounds too official -- captured sounds more obscure, like being temporarily detained b/c

of mistaken identity

[tandot]

20. They called themselves "Christian Warriors"

it is more interesting that Fox left the "Christian" out and just used the "Warrior" part

[Echo In Light]

21. Very deliberate & selective of them

[JVS]

23. I'm surprised Fox isn't calling them Political Prisoners or Dissidents.

[Supersedeas]

30. or Revolutionaries in the spirit of Birthers and Tea Baggers

[LynneSin]

24. I'm surprised that Fox didn't label them as DEMOCRATS

[Rex]

28. 500 channels to pick from

and Fox News should ALWAYS be at the bottom of the list imo. Someone should yank their licence to operate, but I'm sure Repukes will never let that happen - they have a mouthpiece now that they call a news station to speak for them and misrepresent Democrats 24/7! If Dems had something like that, it would be taken off the air within a week!

Fox News - we should all be in jail, you decide.

[LynneSin]

29. Could you imagine if MSNBC or CNN labelled John Edwards or Eliot Spitzer as (R)

There would be outrage in the streets.

[Rex]

31. Senators and Reps (R) would spend weeks on CNN and Fox

telling how this is proof of commie this and that, terrorist this and that and the reporters (including RW apologist Wolfie) would go along with it in a heartbeat. MSNBC would not make that mistake imo.

[Maru Kitteh]

32. LOL. That's quite a collection. n/t

[lpbk2713]

25. And they probably can't spell their own names correctly two out of three times ... LOL

:rofl:

[muriel_volestrangler]

26. and "girding for battle with the Antichrist"/"Prepping for Anitchrist"

I mean, that's what Christians are meant to do, isn't it, according to those that believe in that kind of stuff? So Fox is giving their theological 'excuse' for them.

But they think Obama is the 'Antichrist'. They were girding for battle with the United States. Fox calls that an 'alleged' (OK, this is pre-trial, so putting that in is fairly standard) plot 'to spark an uprising' (they didn't want to 'spark' one, they wanted to be in it, and leading it) against the U.S. gov't (really, it was against the whole US - after all, it was to start by murdering several local police officers. But Fox knows "the U.S. gov't" makes its readers think of the federal government, for whom they have less sympathy).

[Rex]

27. Fox News doesn't want to offend their audience.

See, this is about war against the Antichrist and most honest news stations report on actions that might defeat the Hoofed One.

They report, you make up your own scifi-fantasy senerio.'

[athenasatanjesus]

34. Amazing that they believe they would stand a chance against an antichrist.

And if they did have that kind of power I don't believe the conventional weapons of todays world would do the trick.

[AnArmyVeteran]

35. The photo of that 'manbride' with her little gun toting son brought tears to my eyes...

That picture was like a Norman Rockwell scene drenched in hatred and painted with the blood of innocents. It is sad how there are so many ignorant, backwoods right wingers who believe violence is the answer to every problem. And they teach their offspring the same racism and hatred they were taught.

BTW, do female right wingers still eat their afterbirth following a litter of republi-pups? And does the male of their species still kill the strongest of their litters to keep down competition and to ensure the decline of their species? I am a sociologist, anthropologist and all around inquisitive guy who would like to know more about the mating rituals and habits of lower forms of life, like conservative extremists...

Is that picture one of the bride or groom? It's hard to tell with the dress on, and might still be hard even if the dress was removed. It looks like a lovely Fox family doesn't it?

[progressoid]

37. They really have no shame do they.

[Scurrilous]

39. Kick

:kick:
