Have a Nice Day!

If you share the feelings that Fox News commentator Bill O’Reilly expresses below, than do not read beyond them... please, I might lose your friendship.
- Bill O'Reilly, on ABC's Good Morning America, 03-18-03
"I tell people don't kill all the liberals. Leave enough so we can have two on every campus - living fossils - so we will never forget what these people stood for."
If those remarks annoy you, then you should definitely read on.

Day in the Life of Joe Middle-Class Republican
By John Gray – Published by TvNewsLies.org – July, 2004

Joe gets up at 6:00am to prepare his morning coffee. He fills his pot full of good clean drinking water because some liberal fought for minimum water quality standards. He takes his daily medication with his first swallow of coffee. His medications are safe to take because some liberal fought to insure their safety and work as advertised. All but $10.00 of his medications are paid for by his employers medical plan because some liberal union workers fought their employers for paid medical insurance, now Joe gets it too. He prepares his morning breakfast, bacon and eggs this day. Joe’s bacon is safe to eat because some liberal fought for laws to regulate the meat packing industry.
Joe takes his morning shower reaching for his shampoo; His bottle is properly labeled with every ingredient and the amount of its contents because some liberal fought for his right to know what he was putting on his body and how much it contained. Joe dresses, walks outside and takes a deep breath. The air he breathes is clean because some tree hugging liberal fought for laws to stop industries from polluting it. He walks to the subway station for his government subsidized ride to work; it saves him considerable money in parking and transportation fees. You see, some liberal fought for affordable public transportation, which gives everyone the opportunity to be a contributor.
Joe begins his work day; he has a good job with excellent pay, medicals benefits, retirement, paid holidays and vacation because some liberal union members fought and died for these working standards. ... If Joe is hurt on the job or becomes unemployed he’ll get a worker compensation or unemployment check because some liberal didn’t think he should lose his home because of his temporary misfortune.

Talking about liberals, I found the scene where Homer says "Liberals I hate them so much". I love every line: http://rawstory.com/news/2007/Homer_Simpson_brainwashed_by_Fox_programming_0521.html

The 2nd link works fine for me. What a brilliant sketch! Fox doesnt protest at being satirized so bitingly because The Simpsons are one of their most profitable programs.
