7 SCORE AND 4 YEARS AGO

Lincoln began his Gettysburg address with the words 4 score and 7 years ago. But it numerically ironic that 7 score and 4 years ago (144 years +) was the time period that saw Barack Obama get elected and all that it represents. Stephen Colbert has often “complained” that facts have a liberal bias. In this case it would seem numbers do as well.

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
