Prop — Sun, 10 Jan 2016 08:01:54 +0000

According to Fux News host, Obama used a raw onion to fake tears while talking about school kids dying. Recently, it was reported that―horror of horrors!―Obama doesn't watch enough cable news, and therefore doesn't understand the nation's concerns about terrorism...Some would consider eschewing the manufactured reality of the cable news media-industrial-complex a feature and not a bug.

The Dunning Kruger Effect: Part II

Prop — Thu, 07 Jan 2016 04:39:30 +0000

To paraphrase Dunning-Kruger: Fools lack the tools to recognize their foolishness; i.e. their limitations.

According to the NRA ad above, President Obama is just another “elitist hypocrite” for accepting Secret Service protection for his daughters. Seriously.

Ricks v. Fux News (Update)

Prop — Mon, 26 Nov 2012 23:50:54 +0000
