And we seem to have multi-levels--
Seeing as not only
A) the MSNBC writer worked through the ENTIRE litany of "Oo, it's so
*naugh-ty*!" overused fratboy list-cliche' favorites (Team America, Bad
Santa, Blazing Saddles), that sounded more like a Blockbuster Recommends
list than a sociological analysis,
but
B) Freddy also took the time and trouble crosspost it to six groups
*AND* x-post another thread with just the Song/South mention to six
Disney groups,

....We seem to have a dimensionally onion-like multi-tiered level of
self-backpatting UPON self-backpatting.

(Which would tend to bear out above "mirror-kissing" theory of its
proponents, as summed up better than I ever could. Bravo, sir.) :)

Given that the entire movie was supposed to be a "shocking" ANTI-racial
statement, there don't come no categories *more* PC.

(Now, you want "ethnically incorrect"?
Strap yourself in and chunk Don Bluth's first "American Tail" into the
player....E. Gads. 0_0 )
