FOX news: "is Canada a friend?"

Post by high tek » Wed Dec 01, 2004 10:12 am

i simply could not believe when i saw this headline on fox news.
"IS CANADA A FRIEND?"
refering to big protests of bushs visit to canada.

although it IS fox news.
i should not be so surprised.

i laughed so hard i spilled my ice water all over my ice-coffe table in my igloo.

canadians better watch what they say or they might get "liberated" by the US.

i am often alarmed (although i should be used to it by now) by the simlicity of the approach by bush-bitches like CNN or FOX.
they should make it more simple though....so its even easier to understand:
should just have flashy graphics reading:

canada = bad
israel = good
iran = bad
saudi arabia = good
france = bad
north korea = well let you know tommorow.

All the more reason to move there:

and this is indicative of the reasons why i have completely tuned out the mainstream american media. it's part of the profit making system. it's part of the status-quo-maintenance system. and it's definitely a pretty frackin' huge part of the opinion shaping system.

they might as well just have good or bad graphics for every single issue. but oh, here's the kicker: good = bad

note that there's another bass over there too... why doesn't he incorporate them both into a double-neck?

That's just re-fuckin'-diculous. Can't he find a guitar player to get at those high notes?

Nice to see a graphic EQ in a bass rig that isn't a smiley-face, though.

There's something like 24 frets on that bass and 8 strings. That's what? 192 possible notes? Personally, I wouldn't be able to do a thing with it. I'd sit there paralyzed by indecision.

You missed a string. So it's really 216 notes.

He never plays that string anyway.
