Fox proved once again that it has anything but a conservative bias.
As NewsBusters warned in September, the hit series The Simpsons on Sunday totally trashed Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney and his supporters two days before Election Day (video follows with transcribed highlights and commentary):
The program began with lead character Homer Simpson walking towards his polling station in Springfield.
“Oh man, not another election,” Simpson grumbled. “Why do we have to choose our leaders? Isn’t that what we have the Supreme Court for?”
An obvious bash at George W. Bush. And that was just the beginning.
Once inside the polling station, an elderly white volunteer said to him, “If you’re going to vote, you’ll need some photo ID.”
“But I lived here all my life,” complained Simpson.
“Stopping all Americans from voting is for the protection of all Americans,” responded the poll worker taking a cheap shot at the numerous proposed voter ID laws that have wide support of citizens across the country with the exception of liberals and their media minions.
“But I’m a 40-year-old white guy who didn’t go to college and gets all his news from monitors at gas stations,” explained Simpson.
“In you go,” responded the poll worker giving viewers the impression that voter ID laws are designed exclusively to prevent minorities from voting and that those in favor of them are all uneducated, uninformed white men.
Once inside the polling booth, Simpson said to himself, “Barack Obama? I don’t know. I already got one wife telling me to eat healthy. Plus he promised me death panels, and Grandpa’s still alive.”
It seems no liberal commentary these days is complete without a swipe at former Alaska governor Sarah Palin.
Simpson continued, “Mitt Romney? I hear he wears magic underpants. I expect the leader of the free world to go commando. Plus his horse totally choked at the Olympics. On the other hand, he did invent ObamaCare.”
With that, Simpson voted for Romney, and the automated voting machine thanked him by showing him the former Massachusetts governor’s tax returns.
“Wow,” said Simpson. “Medical deduction for personality implant. He’s got six wives all named Ann. The government paid him taxes for five years. I’ve got to tell the press.”
At that moment, the voting machine said, “You are now being outsourced,” and sucked him into a tube sending him to an American flag factory in China.
Once there, Simpson said, “Well, at least I got a steady job.”
As such, Romney is everything the Obama-loving media have been telling people all year and so are his supporters.
And this is what Fox offered viewers two days before Election Day.
