Seeing Through The New York Times

Hillarious and that's certainly how I see The Slimes. Well done.

This is classic, I'm still laughing.

I laughed thinking about those 'wingnuts' who only saw Kofi WITHOUT his crown and scepter.

I still think I make better use of falafel nuggets than those terrorists.

Heh. Love it.

That was frickin GREAT!!!!

Would LOVE to see a Canadian(CBC)version of this.Very funny,and and like all good comedy,based mostly in truth.

Yankees win, despite not having a transexual on the team

Who woulda thought : )

OT:

American Thinker has a good posting on the Thomas Hubert LPC anti-semitic statements.

Canadian Observer: "Very funny,and and like all good comedy,based mostly in truth.

Um, the truth is based on what right wingers perceive, not about the NYT's alleged agenda. The author wasn't laughing "with" you. Like the distortion of liberal thought presented on sites like this daily, this shows how conservatives view the NYT presented ad absurdium. And yet, some of you are confirming the absurd! I guess it's like Archie Bunker - most laugh at his ridiculous ideas, but some laugh with him because they concur.

That is funny. I can't decide if I like the Kofi get-up ( throw a robe on him and he could pass for Queen Adrienne) or the Micheal Moore - communion side dish.

The arts & dining photos are a nice touch too.

Know what's really funny?

This site is actually PARODYING the right-wing looney world view, and the right-wing loonies are all lining up to say, "Yeah, yeah! I agree! That's me! Funny!"

Good thing they're not too bright.

Jonesy-
Thanks for pointing out the author's intent, it was so subtle many of us stupid conservatives couldn't figure that out. Many thanks for clarifying that, yet after your explanation I still find it funny.

Parody isn't easily recognized around here, as we've seen before. I'm sure Kate recognized it, but nobody else wants to concede that lefties can be funny once in a while.

I recognized it!! (Then again, English is my first language).

Lefties are funny until they are in control. Then there terror oops terrifying.

You are a sad man Frank. If you can't laugh at yourself you ain't got nothing except a mean spirit. Why do you think comics are so successfull? How about press gallery dinners and roasts? Even G.W.B. has a great sense of humour, usually at his own expense. Get a life.

It is fair to say that both the left & right have reason to be be amused. Those on the left for the perceived extremism (accurate) of some conservatives, and the right has reason to laugh (correctly) that the NYTimes consistently, yet subtly, promotes its liberal bias with its news portrayals.

"... nobody else wants to concede that lefties can be funny once in a while."

I must admit, there's truth in that. I tend to think of them as pedantic, condescending and obtuse. jonesy, don't take that personally, unless you feel you should.

Lefties are always funny.

Unfortunately, it's not the humourous kind of funny. It's more the "..eww, these leftovers smell kinda funny" variety.

The'truth'I was referring to was the left/right biases most of us have as well as those we are often unfairly accused of having.As always,this bit demonstrates 'tis the left whose reflex is to attack others while never honestly looking at themselves.

To be honest myself,the only times I imagine libs laughing is when they are counting misappropriated money or votes gained through lies and fear-mongering. :)

Canadian Observer,

Here's another scenario lefties find pretty funny:

1) Web designer does mock-up page to say: Look how retarded the right-wing world view is!

2) Right-wing reaction: "LOL! That's EXACTLY what I think!"

frank, jonesy, what is even more funny is how pissed off you are that conservatives can laugh at themselves. You're upset that there is no blustering outrage and legal fuming. That's how lefties react and you expect this blog to react in the same vein. In fact, you think you need to "explain" it in order to illicit some sort of negative reaction. And now you find that you're actually having to provide all of the self-righteous indignation for us.

But, hey, like I've always said, "stick with what you're good at."

frank,
Thank you for doing such a bang-up job of proving my last point.
We appreciate it'a a good parody of conservatives often suspecting the absolute worst in the MSM.That's why it was good.
You clearly show us,once again,that most lefties can only laugh at the expense of others....sad really.

It really is sad. Truthfully the only thing I feel for you is pity Frank. WE get it. You don't.

Well said Ham.

I'm not pissed off at all, Ham.

"That's how lefties react..."

No generalizations here, though. :-)

If the generalization fits, wear it.

So, just to clarify,
A) we nutters got that it was a parody.
B) we still thought it was pretty hilarious, because
C) we have a sense of humor.
That is all.

(I mean, how could it be otherwise, it's on the HuffPo? Unless it's Greg Gutfield . . .)

Or Michael Smerconish. Or Alan Dershowitz on some issues. More diversity there than at Powerline or LGF.

You're right, jonesy. I meant "That's how YOU lefties react..."

pissed off...irritated, annoyed, mildly itchy...something made you feel obligated to try and point out that we "right"-minded people should be pissed off, irritated, annoyed, mildly itchy, even after you S-P-E-L-L-E-D it out.

Is a well-rounded sense of humour with a touch of self-deprecation so uncommon in your world?

No, Ham...I think you're misinterpreting the rationale for their response. I take it as an inbred response of a leftie to look to the nannie state to tell them when to laugh and what to laugh at...they think we need that, too.

We lefties laugh at ourselves too - it's a fine and timeless pastime.

But why do THAT when you can laugh at neo-cons instead?

You guys provide sooo much material to work with, today being a case in point!

Well we provide you with "sooo much material", & you supply us with such well-reasoned thought! We thought it's the least we could do in return for you tutelage!

Feel free to laugh, contrary to your first impression I wasn't being serious.

If you think there's no self-effacing humour on the left, you must never have listened to Garrison Keillor.

The New York Sewer still cant tell the trust i mean this paper is like the horns of a steer A POINT HERE A POINT THERE AND A LOT OF BULL IN BETWEEN

All good Red Sox fans know that Posada is a transexual.
