separating fiction from reality

War On Fiction Continues

Not content to attack dramas like "Law & Order", the conservative movement, smarting from electoral losses, has taken to criticizing the very excellent My Name Is Earl for the sin of having a bunch of dope-smoking hippies discuss global warming and The Simpsons and Family Guy for not being sufficiently patriotically correct.

The casualties keep mounting in the War on Fiction. Who's next? If we save the cheerleader, do the terrorists win?

This is pretty hilarious - check out the comments! To the person, they do not understand the show at all. The show portrayed extreme stereotypes on both side of the issue - y'know, kinda what comedy does? - and the "morale" was that people need to believe the facts but also use common sense in coming up with a solution. Kinda like the Dems do!

Man, the things people get upset about!
