Teabaggers have their own network now- called "Reich" and they have a cute little red flag with a circular logo that looks like....? You got it- a swastika!

Guess they've purchased the rights for Frasier re-runs.... :shrug:

1. I used to love "Cheers" and "Frasier"
Edited on Mon Apr-19-10 07:02 AM by AndyA
But now I find it difficult to watch either, due to this man's politics.

Same goes for Designing Women, the late Dixie Carter was a registered Republican, and a hell of a good actress because she portrayed liberal Julia Sugarbaker very well!

Two and a Half Men with that right winger Jon Cryer. He's as unattractive on the outside as he is on the inside.

ANYTHING with Victoria Jackson in it. (Thankfully her career was pretty short.)

I never cared much for Chuck Norris, so no big loss there.

Most know about Everybody Loves Raymond's Patricia Heaton.

I just have a difficult time supporting those shows by watching them, when the actors and actresses have such horrid views of the world and how things should be. Their support of Republicans is a huge conflict with my views, and I don't like to watch as it helps put money in their pockets which they in turn donate to Republicans. :puke:

There are others on most of these shows that don't share the back woods views, so that helps some. But I still don't enjoy them as much as I used to, knowing the truth about the people in the shows takes a lot of fun out of it. :(

Edit: to fix italics.

4. I suspect that Grammer really became a ward of the Right
after all his drug arrests ... he may have been a "Republican" before, but when he really got into trouble with the law, then he saw that "conservatives" circle the wagons and protect "their own".

2. MATV -- Coming your way . . .
Moron-American Television.

Will this work? Hard to say. Grammer is about the best they're likely to get in the humor category. There's a biiiiig dropoff between him and, shall we say, Dennis Miller? The rest of their programming? I can't imagine.

15. Actually that commercial took a shot a Gillette
Kelsey Grammer tells us he hates "celebrity magicians" and lumped him in with cats on leashes, grown men tickle-fighting, and baby carrots. If any ever dared compare me to baby carrots I'd have to kick their ass.

17. He's also a vocal atheist. Conservatives hate anyone who gets attention w/o being on board 100%
Penn Gillette is very antiauthoritarian. They loathe that. So, yes, an insult to "celebrity magicians" by a different kind celebrity entertainer is definitely a shot, and a hypocritical one to boot.

3. NO way does that look like a swastika
Even with my failing eyesight, it bears no resemblance.

8. Yeah, sorry, no sale on the swastika thing.
That's as nutty as the teabaggers seeing Muslim crescents in all the White House logos.

10. Yep, it does NOT look like one. Boy heads are going to ROLL!!!!
You would think that creating a logo that looks like a swastika would be a no brainer. Apparently the new guy just wasn't good at describing what a swastika should look like.

6. My wingnut law partner laid into me about George Clooney the other day
blah blah I will not go see a movie with him in it blah blah can you blame me blah blah blah blah blah.

All I could do was roll my eyeballs at such rank stupidity. Kelsey Grammer has a right to his opinion. I don't think it should qualify him or disqualify him to be actor or a comedian.

Running for office would be another story.

14. Now people who live in the special right wing universe should be able to use the remote over there
Now they experience the joy of switching channels without the fear of being contaminated with facts. I'm happy for them.

13. Forget it. The OP also insisted they were calling it "Reich" network.
Political opinions make some people want to ignore reality.

12. I get it... a network for people who are pissed off at liberals, baby carrots & partisan politics
Wait, what...?

Look, I love free speech; let 'em have their network. But a little bit of honesty wouldn't hurt here. If you're creating your own network, you are partisan politics. So ungrit your teeth when you talk, princess. At least we have common ground on that cats-on-leashes thing.
