Yes, they are extreme because they hold a mirror to your ugly face, and dredge up your screeds to point out your hypocrisy and lack of coherent ideas.

What's the matter with waging war on FOX? It bills itself as a news organization and regularly lies to its dumb-as-a-stump viewers. There SHOULD be a war on FOX.

MEDIA CRITIC, Mr. Tendentious.

Only semi-agreed on the propaganda bit: I don't think you'd ever get Huston to be so charitable.

I could have gone with 2009's "dangerous left-wing hatemongering" which I guess is legitimate hatemongering.

I'm a legitimate shit-disturber, so I'm told

I could never get issued the "legitimate" brand.

Was it something I said?
