HOST: Good evening, and welcome to “Amazing Inventions.” I’m your host, Lana Lagniappe. Our guest tonight is is Dr. Dietrich Telefunken, and he’ll be explaining his latest creation.
TELEFUNKEN: Thank you, Lana. As you may know, the media is overrun with liberal terrorist-loving scum who hate America.
HOST: I’m not sure I know anything of the kind...
TELEFUNKEN: Since true conservative patriots are always outnumbered by the evil liberals trying to silence them, I have developed something to offset the numerical imbalance. I present to you, the Wingbot 5000.
HOST: It looks like some sort of robot.
WINGBOT 5000: I am not a robot. Liberals are the real robots.
HOST: It talks!
TELEFUNKEN: It does more than talk! Thanks to its advanced conservative programming, it is a match for any liberal in any debate.
HOST: How does it work?
TELEFUNKEN: It responds to certain keywords with arguments from the best conservative thinkers. Try it. Give it an issue.
HOST: OK. How about taxes?
WINGBOT 5000: Americans are being taxed into the poorhouse.
HOST: But isn’t it true that the majority of Americans have gotten a tax cut in the last couple of years?
WINGBOT 5000: I refudiate that.
HOST: Did you say “refudiate”?
WINGBOT 5000: Yes.
HOST: I don’t think that’s a word. It’s not in the dictionary.
WINGBOT 5000: The dictionary has a liberal bias. Sarah Palin used the word, and that’s good enough for real non-elite Americans.
HOST: Heh. It sounds like she’s channeling George Bush.
WINGBOT 5000: When is Barack Obama going to stop blaming the previous administration and take the blame for anything?
TELEFUNKEN: That’s fine, Wingbot. Try another issue, Ms. Lagniappe.
HOST: OK. How about racism?
WINGBOT 5000: I’m not racist. It’s you liberal elites who are racist. Why don’t you talk about how racist the NAACP is? The Sherrod case proves it.
HOST: How? They were so sensitive to charges of racism that they denounced Sherrod immediately. They were wrong about her, and they had to apologize, but how does that make them racist?
WINGBOT 5000: Bzzzz.... Blurp....
HOST: It never answers my questions!
TELEFUNKEN: Try another issue.
HOST: Well ... OK. How about global climate change?
WINGBOT 5000: Al Gore said he invented the Internet. Ha. Ha. Ha.
HOST: That story’s not even true.
WINGBOT 5000: How dare you say I’m lying. You’re trying to repress my First Amendment rights. This is another example of why you liberals are the real fascists.
HOST: This is getting ridiculous.
WINGBOT 5000: It’s liberals like you who are ridiculous. Why can you not make a point without name-calling?
HOST: Are you kidding? You’ve done nothing but call people names!
TELEFUNKEN: So?
HOST: So you said it could argue! It doesn’t put forth any arguments! All it does is throw out random insults.
WINGBOT 5000: It’s liberals who are really the ones who throw out random insults.
HOST: It’s doing it again! Turn it off.
WINGBOT 5000: Repression! Fascism! Second Amendment remedies! Jeremiah Wright! Where’s the birth certificate? Tony Rezko! Muslim! Muslim! Media elite! Refudiate! Refudiate!
HOST: Make it stop! It’s gone crazy!
TELEFUNKEN: You can’t stop it. In fact, we’re thinking of running it for Congress. We’ve even done some polling.
HOST: Don’t tell me.
TELEFUNKEN: It was the clear front-runner.
HOST: Sigh. Of course. For “Amazing Inventions,” I’m Lana Lagniappe. Good night, and God help us all.
