1. Oh my god.

And it also means they don't know where Iraq is.

[marmar]

2. Omigod......You must first prove that you're a complete idiot before Faux will hire you.

:dunce:

[CJCRANE]

3. Denial is a river in...

Iraq?

:shrug:

So where are the Pyramids in Fox News world?

[KharmaTrain]

4. Like It Matters?

To a Faux viewer they see that region as either "Ragistan" or "Jewville" (I heard those exact terms used by a hate radio host not long ago). It's "our" oil under "their" sand. Hell...these douchenozzles couldn't find Brazil either. Their myopia stops at the Rio Grande. It's "Us vs them"...and the "thems" are always demonized.

5. 99.9999999% of Fox viewers wouldn't catch it

[blogslut]

6. Interested to know the movtivation

I'm guessing the emphasis on Iran is designed to feed the whole they're-gonna-bomb-Israel-look-how-fucking-close-they-are! hysteria and the replacement of Iraq with Egypt downplays the fact that Iraq was always the buffer.

Or, they're just lying fucks that should have their broadcast license revoked.

7. Jeebus! No wonder Bush's military adventures went so badly...

He invaded the wrong country!

So just where ARE all of our troops that are supposed to be in Iraq. FOX lost them!

[L. Coyote]

11. In 1996, could Bush have identified Egypt and Iraq on a map? Probably NOT!

But he likely knew where every major league ball park was.

8. Damn! they must have moved it

when I wasn't looking

[hedgehog]

9. I couldn't see what you were talking about because I kept looking

at Egypt and it doesn't have a label!

[spanone]

10. 'news' channels should have a whiff of intelligence...but then, faux would not exist

[L. Coyote]

12. Duzzy on another thread:

"If I knew Egypt was moving, I would have let them borrow my truck." Bosso 63

[dysfunctional press]

13. they STILL refuse to acknowledge iraq?

[donco6]

14. So, how long have we been at war there?

And they still can't pick it out of a map?
