Actual Faux headline: "Did Radical-Lefty Rosie INfluence Rage Against The Machine?"
http://rawstory.com/news/2007/Fox_links_leftyRosie_to_Rage_Against_0502.html

After Time Magazine placed Rosie O'Donnell on their list of the world's 100 most influential people this week, Fox News host John Gibson was livid.

Referring to O'Donnell as "our favorite loudmouth," Gibson said, "She's been named one of Time Magazine's one hundred most influential people in the world. That's right, the most influential in the world. This is the same women who spends a large part of her air time, on 'The View,' bashing the president and his administration."

According to Gibson, Rosie's influence is "rubbing off."

Cutting to a clip of the recent reunion show of the politically-minded rock group 'Rage Against the Machine,' he said the band "got together again to join the Bush-bashing party."

Citing incendiary 'Rage' lyrics that call for the president to be "hung, and tried, and shot" Gibson made the claim, "These radical lefties not only want the president impeached, they want him dead."

2. Hmn, experiencing a little "Rosie-envy" John?
What a waste of humanity this guy is. The depth of his ignorance and the breadth of his willingness to swill the Kool-Aid are astounding.

And they may be correct.

9. "...on orders from Moscow"
Different form, same argument. "The Left" is all under central direction from some cabal. Not like "they" all come to similar conclusions independently -- that would imply some validity to those conclusions.

10. So it's all Rosie's fault!
She's influencing everyone to hate Bush and his minions! It's nothing that those people are doing. It's Rosie! No wonder she's being honored by Time for being influential. It's all HER fault that the whole world hates him. Hahahahahahahaha! :rofl:

Oh, and that last line in the OP?

Yep. Preferably from choking on a pretzel in the Hague.
