• Turns Out You Can't Say People Should Be Shot in Your Propaganda


    While the rest of the country is focused on the crumbling economy, the right-wing blogosphere is focused on two more important things: William Ayers and a sketch from last weekend's Saturday Night Live that was pulled from NBC.com and Hulu.

    If you saw the sketch, you know that it unironically lays the blame for the financial crisis at the feet of the Democrats and poor people and literally calls banks like Wachovia the "victim."

    Also, President Bush is simultaneously excused of all responsibility and portrayed as the Democratic Congress's loyal lapdog. I know, hilarious. They still got it.

    So obviously, the sketch was pulled because NBC is controlled by powerful liberal elitists with no stomach for hilarious far-right social-Darwinist propaganda, right? Well, maybe not. The other possibility is the thought police have circled their black helicopters around the network for the hilarious part of the sketch that hilariously calls for two real people to "be shot."

    Ugh! When will the political correctness end so we can freely and hilariously say people should be shot? I thought this was America, not Soviet Youcantsaypeopleshouldbeshotistan.

    Anyway, the pulled sketch has been uploaded by some shitty blogs if you want to see it, but I won't link to those shitty blogs on account of their overwhelming shittiness and my aversion to things that are shitty in nature.
