Stop pointing it at yourself.


Canadians have done their time in Afghanistan and have done an admirable job. Time to return to peacekeeping missions and letting the US solve (or create) its own problems.

 
PacersJAM3s 2009-03-21 03:18:28 PM  
That show is aired at like 3AM in the morning.

I truly doubt these people have any more credibility than some other random person on a late-night infomercial. Who cares what they think?

 
Lionel Mandrake [TotalFark] 2009-03-21 03:21:29 PM  
I'd rather watch a Full House marathon than one episode of that idiot-fest. Awful, awful, awful.

 
angryjd 2009-03-21 03:22:01 PM  
Well, sure. If it is north of North Carolina or West of Texas, Fox news will make fun of it.

Dayum. THIS.

What. The. Fark?!?!?

That's funny stuff right there. Wow.
My "Charlie Brown Adult" filter came on about halfway through.
Wah-wah. Wah-wa-wa-wahh.

Seems to me they'd be just as amused if they were smelling their own farts.

 
gopher321 [TotalFark] 2009-03-21 03:32:09 PM  
Closed-minded ignorant people know no international boundaries - we have them here in Canada on the CBC occasionally, bashing Americans for no good reason.

Just ignore them, they'll go away eventually.

Good job, Cletus. Did ya type that with one hand while pluckin' the banjo with the other?

Yeah, I have - and I snickered (in a smug Canuck kinda way).

Easy there, tiger. I was talking about the Fox people.

Mocking dead people is awwwwwight if you toss out a cultural reference.

 
Hender [TotalFark] 2009-03-21 06:13:31 PM  
Wow. I dislike the Fox News network as much as the next person with an IQ over 50, but that was enough to make me write an email to them and complain. That host was an ignorant ass. We dropped a bomb and killed four of their soldiers, and he thinks he can mock their contribution to the war? They lost another few soldiers just yesterday in an IED explosion.

That guy can go fark himself.

 
Bloody William 2009-03-21 08:21:13 PM  
At least they're not liberals. Then they'd be REALLY smug.

I've had better discussions on foreign policy across a beer pong table.

 
AirForceVet [TotalFark] 2009-03-21 08:57:18 PM  
Q: What's the difference between Rush Limbaugh and Fox News?

A: Rush only has one asshole to talk out of.

 
AirForceVet [TotalFark] 2009-03-21 09:05:01 PM  
In direct response to this thread subject, here's a Stars and Stripes article^ about 2000 US and Canadian troops fighting in Afghanistan presently.

/Shouldn't my earlier comment have been filtered to "asshat" automatically?

Forward to 2:26. Just do it.

I LOLed, and I do that very rarely with internets.

Now I have to go watch South Park in French. I know next to no French, and for some reason that makes it funnier.

 
DistendedPendulusFrenulum 2009-03-21 09:57:25 PM  
I'd sure like to know what Ailes has against America

"Andrew Leslie, an unusual name for a man" - I appreciate that the intent was casual homophobia, but that's just nonsense.

I couldn't watch more than thirty seconds. After I saw this going green I had to watch this whole thing.

Are people really this stupid?

Do people actually think RCMP in dress uniform patrol our city streets? I've seen movies/news with a cop's funeral, you have dress uniforms too.

Do we need to be occupying another country to be considered a real country? I mean we invented peacekeeping, that should say what kind of country we run up here. We also don't have the budget same for military. We have 1/10th your population.

So yes, now is a good time to invade. Then you can watch our army's size jump to 30 million Canadians who feel like reenacting a 200 year old war.

To be fair, it is supposed to be satirical. Also, yes, yes they do.

 
SquirrelWithLargeNuts 2009-03-21 11:14:21 PM  
That first guest they talk to is the guy who did Super High Me. This show's credibility could fit under a pregnant ant.

To get American soldiers to invade Canada, you'd have to drive them at the point of a gun. It's not going to happen.

 
obama trauma 2009-03-21 11:18:24 PM  
Just some more made up outrage used to distract feeble minded Americans from Obama flushing our country down the toilet. How long can the obamabots be distracted by these gimmicks?

THIS!

I'll be the first to sign up to defend my country if its ever invaded. That being said, I'm not sure exactly what we're doing in Afghanistan, since I don't recall their army invading.

 
PlasticMoby 2009-03-21 11:21:54 PM  
You have to give them a little credit. Snowshoes are great for marching in sand.
What i really wanna know is how do they keep their igloos from melting?

 
Peter von Nostrand 2009-03-21 11:24:10 PM  
What about Poland, any mention of Poland?

You sound socialist.

funmonger 2009-03-21 11:24:40 PM  
I'm sure this unforgivable lunacy embarrasses many Americans. Some of your states ought to secede and join us in creating the great nation of the future that will lead humanity out of this dark age of the modern intellect.

 
The Great EZE [TotalFark] 2009-03-21 11:26:24 PM  
Jesus Christ. I thought this was the usual anti-FOX hyperbole (not that FOX doesn't deserve the hyperbole most of the time) but they really did rip our ally to shreds--with a little drive-by "OMG MEXICAN LIEKS SIESTAS LULZ!!1!!1" blast for good measure. And really, for no damn reason.

At least MSNBC just airs episodes of Lockdown when they run out of news to report.

/Prefers his Canadian military jokes from the Clones.
//Pays for his TF subscription in military cowardice.

Wow. Ya. That was bad.

Check out 3:48...They bash Mexico, too. In essence calling them "lazy".

Wow. Those people are class-A douche-nozzles.

 
blame canada 2009-03-21 11:29:34 PM  
This is pretty bad. That said, one of the guys on the show is comedian Doug Benson. Not really expecting much respect out of someone who makes a living making fun of everything

 
Bocanegra 2009-03-21 11:31:57 PM  
So uh, if Daily KOS had this to say about some commentators on Fox mocking Canada, what did they have to say about the president mocking Special Olympians?

..........


That's what I thought.

 
timefishblue 2009-03-21 11:32:37 PM  
I think you can figure out all you need to about that show by looking at its logo, which looks like it was designed by someone's nephew between sips of Bawls.

There's a search function on the web site.

Thank you for that.

But it helped and uncovered about as much as you did.

aka: nothing (aside from a few quips about a "wince-worthy joke")

 
The Why Not Guy [TotalFark] 2009-03-21 11:40:32 PM  
These are the same people who clutched their pearls over Obama's gift to a foreign diplomat. Remember? Remember hearing things like "that's a slap in the face to one of our closest allies?"

Remember?

Republicans used to be people who wanted to get to the same place I do, but just wanted to take a different route. Now they're all lunatics.

 
MickCollins 2009-03-21 11:42:06 PM  
If only Daily Kos cared when American soldiers were mocked.

The President made a joke. Yes, he is the President and he can't let stuff like that slip out, but if you are suggesting that he was anywhere near the level of douchebaggery demonstrated in the video clip, then methinks you've been sipping Fox's cool aid.

 
Bocanegra 2009-03-21 11:44:48 PM  
MickCollins: If only Daily Kos cared when American soldiers were mocked.

I wouldn't expect anything else from them, honestly. Just a bunch of extremists and idiots who contribute to that site. Which is a dangerous combination (as both sides of the coin can attest to).
