Liberals truly are fonts of sophistication and erudition. We know
this because liberals tell us, and liberals are smart. They would never
mangle words as does Dubya Bush or misspell “potato” like hapless Dan
Quayle. But there are some things they would do, and what follows is a
sampling.

1. The Four Chinese Pilots

San Francisco’s KTVU made news when
reporting on the Asiana plane crash recently — but not in the way they
intended. Mistaking an obvious Internet joke for legitimate information,
the station reported,
“KTVU has just learned the names of the four pilots who were aboard the
flight. They are Captain Sum Ting Wong, Wi Tu Low, Ho Lee Fuk and Bang
Ding OW. The NTSB has confirmed that these are the names of the pilots
onboard Flight 214 when it crashed. We are working to determine what
roles each of them played during the landing.”

There’s Sum Ting Wong in the mainstream media, alright.

2. Dog Food Afternoon

But perhaps KTVU had graduated from the
Patsy Schroeder School of Comedy. During a 1990s budget battle, the
Democrats said that if the GOP got its way, the elderly would have to
eat dog food to afford medicine. Radio host Rush Limbaugh then spoofed
this demagoguery in a GOPAC speech, joking that he’d bought his mother a new can opener “so that she can get the dog food easier when she has to eat it.”

Enter liberal
Congresswoman Schroeder. Taking Limbaugh’s comment seriously, she
appeared on the House floor the next day to complain, emotionally and
incredulously, that “this is what it’s come to! …Rush Limbaugh actually
said he's going to buy his mother a can opener so she can have dog food.
Wow!”

Yeah, wow. And they say conservatives have no sense of humor?
