In the spirit of this, I present this.

Thwarted! I was going to post the same Hines photos, Farber -- you beat me to it.

“Wrigley Co. Uses Bestiality to Sell Skittles” I lack the parodic skills required to improve the title or content of John Nolte’s latest screed. But I’ll try to shorter it anyway: I used to laugh at loud at the term “slippery slope.” Then I grew up. AND WHEN I GREW UP LESBIANS WERE MAKING OUT WITH WALRUSES. Can you tell which sentence I wrote? Me neither. Did I write this? If you don’t think there’s an agenda behind this, you haven’t been paying attention the last 40 years. And if you don’t think that there are those who hold the levers of power in our popular culture that would like to remove the stigma from bestiality, you don’t understand the depths of sexual depravity the human animal is capable of. Or what about this? Again, what was the point of feminism? Here’s your real war on women. Waving enough money in front of an actress and have her do whatever depravities you can dream of. Liberated? If by that you mean women are to be accorded no respect and you can expect any female to do anything because to say no would be so uncool. Abortion liberates men because it allows them to walk away. And if they pay for the abortion then they’re the good guy, taking responsibility. Parody is dead. Long live actresses who kiss aborted walruses!

Dear The Media, I understand why you're reluctant to identify Wade Michael Page as a white supremacist, but I'm an expert in visual rhetoric and I'm here to help you out. Consider the photograph of Page you're currently using: There are some subtle clues as to Page's ideology hidden in this image. First: That is a Nazi flag. You can tell because it contains a Swastika in a white circle surrounded by a red hem. It is highly unlikely that someone hung it because it means "good luck" in Sanskrit. Also: The repeating patten on that guitar strap is the Confederate Battle Flag. It reminds white people of those glorious antebellum days when blacks were in their place and no real American had even heard of Muslims. Also: That is a Celtic cross. It is the most favorite symbol of the good people at Stormfront.org. Also: That is the number fourteen. It stands for the Fourteen Words most dear to oppressed white men in America today. Those words are "We must secure the existence of our people and a future for White Children." So let me assure you: if you have correctly identified the man in the photograph above, you don't need to "speculate" as to whether he was a white supremacist. Because there's no room for speculation. That man in that picture is a white supremacist. Whether his white supremacist beliefs influenced his decision to murder peaceful Sikhs, that may well be a matter for debate. But that man? The one in the picture? He's a white supremacist. You're welcome.
