And I of course always refer to <i>serious</i> pieces as "muddled ... funeral woopy cushions", don't I?<br /><br />The problem being that your cack-handed 'satire' was a ludicrous strawman, that has very little to do with, and therefore completely fails to 'satirise' "leftists" (for whatever delusional definition of leftists you're applying today).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20385137.post-38402089770708516762010-07-27T13:19:49.489-04:002010-07-27T13:19:49.489-04:00The post is satirical -- do I have to point out th...The post is satirical -- do I have to point out the obvious?BallBounceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08776039024486455199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20385137.post-86777412636522824292010-07-27T13:04:30.695-04:002010-07-27T13:04:30.695-04:00"Are these leftist critics suggesting that Hi..."Are these leftist critics suggesting that Hispanics make up more than the average number of illegal immigrants?"<br /><br />No of course not. Leftists believe that Arizona is on the border with Sweden (and was in fact taken from Sweden in the Swedish-American War in the late 1840s), and that Sweden has such a low average standard of living that many Swedes illegally immigrate to the US.<br /><br />"The only acceptable assumption is that all races, equally and with equal probability, are entering the USA illegally."<br /><br />Yes, why should deal with the facts when you can assume (or accuse, without any evidence leftists of assuming, or whatever the muddled point of this latest funeral woopy cushion is) anything you want to make the left look bad?<br /><br />With such claims, you really should go on Fox News. After all, if the facts are clearly racist, then the Foxies can be excused for wanting to have nothing to do with them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
