TV DOESN’T GET DUMBER THAN THIS! (By David Frum)
newmajority.com ^ | Wednesday, March 18, 2009 5:53 AM | David Frum

Posted on 03/18/2009 4:03:20 PM PDT by Checkers

Greg Gutfeld takes the challenge: Can Fox produce a show that anticipates a SNL parody of Fox? The panel discusses the question: should the US invade Canada… and produces something almost as hilarious as the old Half Hour News Hour.

UPDATE:

The clip in question is a sequence of goofs about the feebleness, uselessness and absurdity of the Canadian Armed Forces. Why would I call that dumb? Here's why, courtesy of CanWest News. Sorry I disrespected your show, RedEye fans - but you disrespected the dead. --David Frum

I know this won't sit well with some of you right-wing wackos but I think David Frum is absolutely right.

Further, I think FOX News should apologize to Canada for airing this insulting program.

In addition, I think FOX News should send Canada a gift of some sort to accompany the apology. A gift that would send the unmistakable message that America values the leadership, dedication and self-sacrifice that comes with serving your country in time of war.

I wonder if FOX news can get a hold of that bust of Winston Churchill that President Potato Head had removed from The Oval Office.

Oh, I’m sorry. I would have thought this was going to be about Barry’s appearance in Costa Mesa.

Yeah, no kidding.
