respond to satire with satire

a few days ago, i told you about fox news insinuating that the barack/michelle fist-bump was a "terrorist fist-jab." as happens often here, my words were short. when something so incredulous and preposterous is suggested, a thoughtful, intelligent, grounded response is unnecessary. for that reason, i usually limit my thoughts to a few words. however, i forgot the Stewart/Colbert way of dealing with such silliness.



you see. a long time ago, colbert and to a lesser extent stewart realized that so much of what happens in the MSM is so preposterous that it is not worthy of a credible response. not only is dealing with the nonsense this way therapeutic, but it is also disarming to people who would otherwise entertain much of the MSMs insanity. the best part about it is that politicians cannot respond to colbert/stewart as right/left wing operatives because their delivery is completely satirical. maybe the only time in present-day media can we find some unadulterated truth. oh the comedy.
