Fox News’ Eric Bolling asks, “Is liberal Hollywood using class warfare to kind of brainwash our kids?” Kermit says that if they had a prejudice against oil companies, they wouldn’t have spent the whole movie driving around in a gas-guzzling Rolls Royce.

Do We Need a Ministry of Truth for the Internet?
Adam Thierer at Forbes wonders whether we need a Ministry of Truth for the Internet. After much bloviating, he decides not. Well, he’s a bit late to the party. Google has been “filtering” results in Germany, France and China. And Twitter has begun doing it, too. There are more than enough agencies out there willing to perform the duties of the Ministry of Truth. But we don’t need more censors; we need more critical readers.
NBC asserts First Amendment doesn’t apply to them
NBC has asked the Romney campaign to remove network material from Romney’s campaign ads. Nice bit of hypocrisy: NBC thinks their copyright trumps Romney’s First Amendment right. But what would happen if the roles were reversed? If Romney demanded that NBC stop showing HIS copyrighted works — such as his campaign ads — or tried to bar NBC from his appearances. NBC would be screaming “public’s right to know.” Bite me, NBC.
The IRS “reveals” 36 Obama aides are far behind in their taxes — maybe
Here’s a cute article that claims that 36 Obama aides are far behind in their taxes. Could be, but the article doesn’t give its source. If you Google around, you’ll find some right-wing blogs refer to a “Federal Employee and Retiree Delinquency Inventory.” But the IRS website has no such report. Until someone comes up with some actual facts, I’m issuing a conditional BITE ME.
Calling Rosemary Woods: Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer finds the missing letter
At first, publicity-hound Brewer claimed that the letter she gave to Obama was unofficial, and that she had no copy of it. She’s since released it to the media and it’s on official letterhead. BITE ME, Brewer.
Newt would give Sarah Palin a “major role” in a Gingrich administration
This isn’t “BITE ME,” this is scary: Newt Gingrich on Sarah Palin: If I become President I’d ask her to take a ‘major role’ in my administration.
After freezing union wages, Gov. Cuomo wants to raise his staff’s salaries
Gingrich: Same-Sex Marriage Is ‘Pagan’ Behavior
Gingrich: Same-Sex Marriage Is ‘Pagan’ Behavior. Yeah, sure. My friend, MrMild, says “Gingrich is my go-to guy on marital ethics.” Nuff said.
Romney’s Greece Comparison Doesn’t Add Up
Mitt Romney says, “We’re headed toward a Greece-like collapse. This economy has failed.” But the National Journal.explains how he’s just pulling it out of his ass. Bite me, Mitt.
Brent Bozell says President looks like a “skinny, ghetto crackhead”
BITEME.ME highlights some of the more stupid and disgusting things people say and do. But Bozell is almost too repulsive for even our stomachs of steel. We may have to establish a new Bozell award to honor those who’re veering into dementia. BITEME, Bozell.
