Palm Trees in Madison? A Fox Exclusive!


The far-right Rethuglican lie machine is working overtime at Faux/Fux News... and it seems sometimes they're not even trying to hide their ham-handed bias. Witness this, where palm trees, hitherto unknown in Wisconsin, appear as a backdrop to a Faux story on "violent" union protesters in Madison. Of course, there ain't no palm trees within a thousand miles of Madison -- the footage used was shot in Sacramento, a quibble the sociopaths at Faux/Fux want their audience of credulous cretins to slough off as they stoke up their fear and anger. There are no violent protesters among the biology teachers, nurses, firemen and snow plow operators who, after all, are simply demonstrating to maintain their collective bargaining rights in the face of an extremist assault from the far right. Bastards.

A slight correction, in the interest of full disclosure:
There are palm trees less than 50 miles from Madison. I have touched them.

They're in one of the indoor water parks in The Wisconsin Dells, and they're realistically constructed of reinforced concrete.

O’rielly, what a joke, didn’t he say “video comes in video comes out never a miscommunication”. Why is it that so many fools follow this liar? It looks like that the top republican candidates for president will be coming from “Fake News/ Fox News”, or should I say “Big Business”, how funny.

I wonder if “Fake News” has a stable of likely republican supreme court justices (I am sure they will all attend the republican state of the union, unlike Antonin Scalia, Samuel Alito, and Clarence Thomas, scum bags).
