Chris Graham: Facebook BS

Chris Graham

chris-graham-links3“Yeah, for that guy, Yugo Chavez, or whatever his name is.”

“He’s doing a eulogy for Chavez.”

“Yeah. Yugo.”

“Isn’t it Hugo?”

“All the TV people are saying Yugo.”

That’s called subliminal messaging, folks. Yugo, as in Yugoslavia, part of the old Soviet Communist bloc. See, Chavez is/was a socialist.

Same as our president, depending on who you follow on Facebook.

“I don’t buy it for a second.”

“That’s because you’re one of those liberal elitists.”

“But I watch NASCAR.”

“That’s a cover.”

“And promote wrestling matches.”

“An expensive diversion.”

“And book country-music concerts.”

“You’re trying too hard.”

Maybe. Or maybe I have common sense not to spread somebody’s propaganda for them for free without first at least checking it out to see if there’s a kernel of truth to it.

I didn’t say that to my buddy here.

I just unfriended him on Facebook.
