FOX's Lou Dobbs attacks 'Lorax' and 'Arrietty' as left-wing brainwashing

Is it just me or is the right, as an institution in the United States, close to moral bankruptcy? They just seem to be thrashing around as of late.

"The right" doesn't truly describe anything. You can talk about the Republican party, in which case I would mostly agree, but there are plenty of conservatives out there with morals in tact.
-
That's why I had put the word "institution" in my post. The people themselves probably will not have changed much. But as an institution, i.e. its public outlets etc., it seems they're running on fumes these days.

Sort of like those liberal bastards on Sesame Street. These sorts of allegations have been going around for ages.
In the end it won't matter. People will still take their kids to see these movies, and the people who won't because of the [alleged] political message are so whacked out that they and their kids are lost causes anyway.
Think I've posted this here before, but it's so great it should probably be posted daily.

For years I've been fascinated about the likely development of a girl who's told at "an emergency round table discussion" that she won't be allowed to see Titanic because it's filthy, depraved and immoral. I'd bet good money that she grew up to be a filthy, depraved and immoral young lady.
And as a filthy, depraved and immoral old man, I find this somewhat kick ass. :lol

Arrietty...an entirely Japanese creation...is left-wing brainwashing? Lorax I can understand where they're getting their ammo, but Arrietty?

Dear Lou Dobbs,
:youfail:
Sincerely,
Every rational human being
I doubt he REALLY believes this (or at least that's my hope), and its just a publicity stunt to rile up right-wingers.
Next, he'll claim that it's a conspiracy that left-wingers score more goals in hockey than right-wingers.

Lou Dobbs is not a very bright man at all. Better for him to be ignored.
-
Isn't Lou Dobbs the guy who used to be on CNN, and was always going on about how Canada, the US, and Mexico were totally going to merge and become one country? It was all supposed to go down by, like, 2006 or something.
-
Yeah, that was him. He also went on crazy rants about illegal immigration and such.
-
Dobbs is an idiot. I loved Disney movies as a kid, and look how I turned out. Not exactly a democrat.

Nowadays kids are more concerned with trade deficits and market bubbles than they are with getting candy and video games. They're very advanced.

Geez, I wonder what that person thinks of Gone in 60 seconds, or any of the Ocean## movies.

Nobody but a tree-hugging Commie would despise Chicken McNuggets and Twinkies, the cornerstones of a true American meal.

Come on, it's been shown that having a BMI < 30 is associated with being liberal:

Clearly, Sesame Street is insidiously trying to liberalize people by having them eat healthily.

I can literally sense the shares of Disney plummeting as a direct result of this post.
