Exclusive to Onesimus Jones from intrepid reporter Beau Gus LeScribe
Beau is French!
In a recent speech to a group of high schoolers, Bush(1) communications director Nicolle Wallace(2) praised Adoloph Hitler(3) as one of her two favorite philosophers, with Mother Theresa being the other.
Ms. Wallace's(2) remarks were widely reported on talk radio, internet blogs, and Fox News, but completely ignored by major broadcast news, cable giants CNN and MSNBC, and even PBS.
However, PBS ran a story last night warning of the dangers of talk radio. Several grim prigs supported the party line: "talk radio hosts don't check facts." Most remarkably, Nicolle Wallace(2) herself was featured denouncing Fox. Not one word about Ms. Wallace's(2) high regard for the Feuhrer(4). Nor were any specific "unchecked facts" promulgated by talk radio mentioned.
Bush(1) administration spokespersons state that Ms. Wallace's(9) remarks were taken out of context - she only meant to credit Hitler(3) for his political strategy, not his tendency to murder human beings by the millions. "Real journalists find nothing newsworthy in a government official making one favorable comment about Hitler(3)," said an obtuse ideologue from a rightwing(5) blog. +

CORRIGENDA
As our guest writer, Onesimus Jones wishes to give wide latitude to Mr. LeScribe in sharing his progressive views. But we must correct blatant factual errors. Mr. LeScribe is entitled to his own opinion, but not to his own facts. Therefore, his piece was footnoted where egregious errors were found, and following is a list of true facts in relation to said footnotes:
1. Obama (not Bush)
2. Anita Dunn (not Nicolle Wallace)
3. Mao Tse-Tung (not Adolph Hitler)
4. The Chairman (not the Fuehrer)
5. leftwing (not rightwing)

Mao offers progressives something to think on, while Hitler never appealed to those who valued education.
Au Contraire, my esteemed former mentor.
Germany was the most highly educated nation on earth when the Nazis came to power.
The world would have been well served if Goebbels would have been somewhat less educated.
So much for education being a panacea for all that ails mankind!
