This week in dumb da dumb dumb, dumb

The city of Milford, CT seems determined to take the lead as  Connecticut's most backwoods backwards city by  coming out with an "interesting" calendar for the 2013-2014 school year. Looking for a hedge against snow days they decided to cut off two particular holidays, the first being Veterans Day and the second being Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year. I'm spelling out what Rosh Hashanah is because it's possible people from Milford reading this might not know. In any event under pressure they immediately backed off. But as a Vietnam veteran who is Jewish I am compelled to ask, Milford how don't I love thee, let me count the ways, While you're counting snow days.

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
