Actor Ed Asner proved to the world that liberalism is an ideology of rage and hate when he asked a Fox News producer if he could urinate on him.
The exchange took place while Asner was being interviewed about his role in a propaganda cartoon produced by the California Federation of Teachers that showed wealthy people urinating on the poor.
Newsbusters’ Noel Sheppard provided a transcript of the exchange:
UNIDENTIFIED FOX NEWS PRODUCER: Do you remember the video? Do you know what I’m talking about?
ASNER: I don’t remember a thing I said on it or a word I said on it, but I agreed to do it for California teachers. I approve this message.
UNIDENTIFIED FOX NEWS PRODUCER: Okay. I think the most controversial part the people are talking about it, there’s a part of it where talking about things trickling down and they have like rich people peeing on poor people.
ASNER: How disgusting. It should be reversed.
UNIDENTIFIED FOX NEWS PRODUCER: So you don’t remember that?
ASNER: Do you have any money?
UNIDENTIFIED FOX NEWS PRODUCER: Yeah.
ASNER: Can I piss on you?
The propaganda cartoon has since been edited to remove the offensive scene, but Asner still approves of the message that he doesn’t even remember.

this is about the same as that travel channel guy talking about doing things to Cheney…
Maybe we do need a “net-worth” tax…burned out “no-bodies” that will escape higher income taxes.
Asner was a big fan of Dennis Kucinich. What more would you expect of someone who thinks a Department of Peace is a splendid idea?
well Howard…did Ed change his name from ASSner to Asner? I keep praying for the big quakes that send both coasts sailing elsewhere (sorry pal but you living in LaLa land EAST will be considered “collateral damage”…
Department of Peace or Department of Pee?
Classy! Charming!
Ol’ Ed’s worth a staggering 1.5 million so he’s in that awkward range where he knows he’s better than the hoi polloi but isn’t taken seriously by the real Hollywood money. Plus there’s that rumor that he was slightly famous for a couple years. So much to be angry about, so little time left.

dang, but i missed the announcement when all the liberals of the world agreed that Asner perfectly represented them and any and all of his actions were appropriately assigned to all liberals.
Joe, do you have a link to that?
or are you being rather a sillypants?
