Freep Columnist's Fantasy Academy Awards Acceptance Speech lol:
Edited on Tue Mar-07-06 10:16 AM by elehhhhna

"...First, I want to thank my country, the United States of America. Every one of us here has this country to thank for enabling us to live lives of unprecedented freedom and unimaginable affluence. Too many of us forget that no other country in history has offered such opportunities to people in our profession or in any other profession, for that matter. "

it gets worse...

"... America, the least racist country in the world."

1. If Bush were to actually give this speech, this would be the most
truthful quote of all:

"But the truth is that, as noble a calling as acting can be, all we do is make-believe: We portray other people, and we speak words written by other people."

Seems to fit him to a T. He is as make believe as they come. He is portraying a President and other people have to write his words.

3. hey Dennis "asshat" Prager, just as soon as the news
Edited on Tue Mar-07-06 10:35 AM by sui generis
which is NOT fantasy, gets to start BEING ALLOWED to show torture photos and video, our dead children coming home in caskets, not heros, just dead, tens of thousands of injured soldiers waiting for prosthetic limbs and in physical therapy, and military families struggling to pay their medical bills and to live with the psychic trauma of bringing all this goddam freedom to Iraq over the bodies of a hundred thousand men, women and children, Hollywood will make a blockbuster movie just for you.

But you would probably censor that, because you're not really interested in "reality", just made up pithy views of the world, delivered not in the vibrant technicolor of the real world but in the faded black and white of your limited world view.

Here's your speech. You know where you can put it.

5. Unimaginable affluence
Perhaps to morons. We have become a lot less affluent than we were before this bunch of cryptofascists seized control.
