Must suck to be marginalized.

1. I thought they were for property rights?

I guess they're only "for" something when it doesn't interfere with their "version" of society.

Their version being "what I say, goes."

[RevStPatrick]

3. I thought they were for market solutions?

Let the market decide, right?

If they don't like the messages of these movies, maybe they should make their own children's movies, and let the marketplace... oh, nevermind. They're determined to be mindless hypocrites.

12. They only support property rights for themselves.

The rest of the world can eat shit.

2. Martin Bashir covered this a day or two ago

and then added (paraphrased) I'm sure that will teach, the minimum wage employee that has to clean it up, a stern lesson.

4. This Fox guest has to be removed from any TV show

as a new version of FD that will remove liars from the air.

That means Fox and its ilk has to follow its slogan or get off the air.

5. that would be like attacking Iraq for 9/11

whoops - guess they did that.

6. They better not go see the movie at a drive-in.

This is a Fox News audience he's talking to, and it may be wise to warn them.

It'd be a bitch to go out the next day and realize you cut up the seats and dumped a large Coke on the floor.

7. Yep ... that's the "Matt Patrick" from Akron's WKDD ...

must suck when you're bumped from being the "#1 DJ for women in a small market next door to a former mid-size market" to "Talk radio host in a small market you can't hear" to "Talk radio host who moved to Texas after he proclaimed how Akron was his home."

I guess that Clear Channel had to cut some of the fat from their coffers to afford to pay Rush Limbaugh ...

[Initech]

8. These idiots are so far removed from reality it's completely unbelievable.

doesn't even begin to describe Fox News commentators anymore.

9. Um...how about just not going?

[JohnnyRingo]

11. That's the funny part of this grand plan.

Since they don't want their kids to see the movie and be corrupted with thoughts of enviromental sensitivity, angry conservatives will have to go see a Dr Suess movie alone.

They'll have to fend off the mothers who assume they're lurking pedophiles by explaining that they're just assholes who came to trash the theater. What a well thought out operation.

10. Shouldn't MR. Patrrick be investigated by the FBI for terroristic threats?
