That Friday Podcast all the Kids are Talking About!





One of the great attractions of patriotism - it fulfills our worst wishes. In the person of our nation we are able, vicariously, to bully and cheat. Bully and cheat, what's more, with a feeling that we are profoundly virtuous.

-- Aldous Huxley



Our media juggernaut keeps its whole catalog and (for those included to drop a little dough into chapeau) the PayPal thingie here.

Thanks again to Frank Chow for the graphic and Heather at Crooks and Liars Video Cafe for their help.

Who doesn't think that in private company, DFB, Cokie and Chuck Todd wouldn't spew out the new foot in mouth media term "The Dirty Sanchez"?
...and how long before Rick himself shows up on Fox.
I am not sure anymore that they bark out their false equivalence meme so much as a Pavlovian response. I am beginning to think that they are just a vastly overpaid collection of dullards.
That was certainly Sanchez's problem...very simply, just a simpleton.
