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.
