ROPE-A-DOPE: THE ALLEN EXIT STRATEGY

There is no question how losing Senatorial candidate George Allen may
have hurt himself on Meet the Press by confirming that he coupled the
Confederate flag and a hangman's noose in his office. He should have
given the most logical explanation, namely that he is a man of letters
and the rope is for an extreme sports version of hangman. Also on Allen
- the exit polling in Virginia showed only 37% thought he had a problem
with the more ethnic folks. Was his Jewish mother included in that
tally?

The Faux News Network Principles


A) We distort, you abide
B) Or we retort if you deride, unless we choose not to
C) Complete sentences are acceptable in lieu of complete truths
D) It’s OK to criticize the 2006 Democratic Congress for all America’s problems since 2001
E) We shoot from the flip
F) We’re not always accurate but we’re always certain
G) On what we feel is wrong in this world, we can’t stop people from saying I don’t agree or I don’t care, but we won’t let them say I didn’t know
H) The director’s board has a whim of irony
I) In times of emergency, we should rally around our President: In times of democracy he should do the same for us
J) We proudly plagiarize in advance, examples available upon request
K) It’s easy to be fun-based when you’re fact based
L) Good news parody makes for good news parity
M) And, of course, our goal is and always will be to be the most trusted name in Faux News
