TV DOESN’T GET DUMBER THAN THIS! (By David Frum)

Greg Gutfeld takes the challenge: Can Fox produce a show that anticipates a SNL parody of Fox? The panel discusses the question: should the US invade Canada… and produces something almost as hilarious as the old Half Hour News Hour.

UPDATE:

The clip in question is a sequence of goofs about the feebleness, uselessness and absurdity of the Canadian Armed Forces. Why would I call that dumb? Here's why, courtesy of CanWest News. Sorry I disrespected your show, RedEye fans - but you disrespected the dead. --David Frum

I think the gift idea stinks. Fox owes Canada no apology. Since when is Canada above satire?

Fans Boo American National Anthem at Special Olympics

Canadiens Fans boo/disrespect National Anthem--Hockey game

How many Canadians went to Iraq?

Jean Chretien (almost as big a scumbag as Obama) was PM then. No Liberal Party leader (especially one from Quebec) was going to Iraq. Afghanistan was an easy call for him because the Canadian public wanted blood for 9/11.

Such fun!

LOL, I’ll get it.

Thanks.

I think your gift idea stinks.

What????

How can you say that???

Do you even know the story about the bust of Winston Churchill and what Pres--ent Obama did with it?

[buccaneer81]

I've got one for you. One that really matters.

The Canadian Caper

As an ex member of the Canadian Airborne Forces Association I was OK with it, especially if Frum didn’t like it.

Obama sent it back to Britain before he realized that he could "re-gift" presents from foreign governments.

Otherwise it would already be in Japan or Canada or Upper Volta by now.

How many Canadians went to Iraq?

Canadians understood the war on terrorism and committed to that war early on ... Iraq came later & there was little enthusiasm in Canada to what was considered Bush's war. Bottom line, what the f*** difference does it make? Is Canada's commitment to the war on terrorism diminished in your pea brain because they chose to take a pass on Iraq?

[RichInOC]

Personally (not that Frum gives a damn about what downscale conservatives such as myself think) I think the men and women of the CF are mostly fine, decent, dedicated, skilled and hard-working people who have not always been well served by their superiors, particularly their civilian leadership.

[fanfan]

Canadian soldiers were first deployed to Afghanistan in late 2001 early 2002. One of United States earliest allies to address the war on terrorism. The record breaking sniper shot to kill an enemy combatant (over a mile) was established by a Canadian sniper team, members of the Princess Pat Regiment out of Alberta, Canada. Let me say this in no uncertain terms, speaking as a former Canadian (now a U.S. citizen and a ex-Marine), any POS that denigrates Canada's commitment to the war on terrorism is an ignorant, uninformed scumbag. FU!!!

Bump, and Thank You for your service.

What did you think of my idea as to a gift that we could send to Canadia?

How about a box of DVDs. It was good enough for the Brits.

;-D

The problem is that the brain dead morons that would watch a show like this will believe what they hear.

It didn't used to be a problem when there were fewer brain dead morons, but they've reached a critical mass now.

How about a box of DVDs. It was good enough for the Brits.

Ha haaaa!!! Was it now?

I don't know if it was good enough for the Brits but apparently it was good enough for David Frum.

Or did he write a prissy article about that snub, too?

Wait a minute. It just dawned on. The reason Frum didn't get his lacy panties all in a wad was because Pres--ent Obama didn't do it as a parody, he did it out of ineptitude. I guess nincompoopery is a given for RATS so it's nothing to spit nails over.

I feel like such a dummy.

Who is David Frum?

Speaking of braindead moron...

Red eye is not for the brain dead morons, it is for a hipper, better informed, conservative crowd.

The reason I joined the CAFA in the first place was to show some support for the handful of men that live in Canada.

I joined the CAFA after Canada disbanded the Canadian Airborne Regiment in 1995 because their incident in Somalia.

Canada is a weak and pathetic country that has a small number of good people.

As if!

Did you allow your intellect to listen to the 'one up' commentary? These people are all trying to be cooler than the next guy! How pathetic they are with their stupid uninformed comments.

You don't see it?

....the handful of men that live in Canada.

*sigh*

It looks like you pinged an awful lot of people for my post to you, what do you have in mind?

[buccaneer81]

You might want to look in the mirror when you utter the word, "pathetic."
