Why the Laughter?
Fox News Channel (No Link) | 4/12/13

So they were discussing on Fox Sunday the Dems' resolve to start a national gun registry. Wallace discussed the issue with several Fox regulars, and all but the in-house Lib concluded that such a registry would certainly be but a first step towards confiscation. Then they ended the segment with a joke and they all laughed.

So they were discussing the Dems' bugging of McConnell's office on Kelly's segment. They all agreed that it was probably a felony and should be investigated. Then someone made a wise crack and they all laughed.

So the topic of Obama's utter incompetence and possible treason regarding foreign relations and Korea's increasingly psychotic actions was being discussed on the Fox evening Special Report. And then someone made a joke and they all laughed.

But...

Put on your MOP 4 suit and jump over to MSNBC or one of its venomous spawn. They are discussing how you and I -- conservatives -- are gun-toting Neanderthals who actually own Bibles and should be either put in reeducation camps or chemically sterilized. No one laughed.

Then jump over to ABC and watch as the news anchor tendentiously asks his panel what can be done about Republican racism and its hatred of women and its desire to kill "people of color." Several insane remedies are discussed. No one laughed.

What is it with so-called conservative organizations? I find absolutely nothing funny about the issues we face, but to listen to Fox and National Review and others, it's one big yuck fest. Progressives, OTOH, are deadly serious when they discuss these issues and then push for fascistic remedies.

What's so funny? I realize ridicule can be powerful in a fight of ideas, but if we keep laughing at what is happening, we'll lose everything. Laughter is useful only when you have the stronger hand. It's been just five months since the last elections and we are well on the way to losing the House in 2014 as "conservatives" in the Congress suddenly find that, well, a national gun registry and semi-auto rifle and magazine ban wouldn't be all that bad.

The ones laughing now are Obama's people.
