In a funny way. Or funny in a tragic way. Yes, we're all skimmers, I think it's almost become a defense mechanism so that we can think people wrote one thing when they actually wrote (and meant) something quite different... or maybe it's that reality is becoming Just That Bizarre lately, and so many bloggers are doing real interviews and Howard Dean is holding the camera for Steve Carrell and Jon Stewart is seriously kissing Henry Kissinger's ass... it all blends together...

Oh, brother. Next time, put a big flashing sign saying "IRONY" around each statement. Maybe you better define "irony" while you're at it. Okay, okay, I'm being ironic. A bit.

And really, once I thought about it, it wouldn't have been exactly the cherry in the del monte fruit cocktail of Rush's ouevre, rationalnesswise.

Unfortunately, truth is often stranger than fiction. I would submit that your fabricated quotes were more plausible coming from the lips of Alan Colmes than you assert in your triumphalist mea culpa. The guy does, after all, tow the "Fox is really fair and balanced" line with a straight face. The exerpts merely appeared to be an attempt at humorous extrication from what most liberals see as his dealings with the devil. Ah, well. Far be it from me to be ungracious. You truly rooked me and I go forth, hopefully, the wiser. I will skim less and research more before trusting such quotes in the future. Education as to the true nature of things is, after all, the only way we'll stem the predations of those awful mole people... Okay, you got us.

I thought EVERYTHING you said was true! I'll have to reconsider my regular reading of your fanatically apathetic commentary -- or at least adjust to the fact that you are no more truthful than those you mentioned at the top of your latest fanaticism. My motto can no longer be "It's funny 'cause it's true!" Geeeeez! I thought EVERYTHING you said was true!
