- I am the Omnipotent Poobah, Grand Maven of all that is media. I speak the truth because I’m all-knowing and all-powerful! That Oz guy? Pure bush league. I believe everyone has a right to be heard and others have a right to smite them if they should so choose, but not before I get my licks in. I believe in the Constitution, Motherhood, and apple pie – in that order. Sanctimonious asshats? Not so much. I believe religion is a wonderful and beautiful thing, so long as you don’t bother me with it. I take a very dim view of front porch preachers. Ask some who have felt my awesome wrath. I believe the truest test of a democracy is how it deals with its most loathsome practitioners. I never take the path of least resistance. I believe political correctness, no matter from which quarter, is a pox upon us all and should be terminated with extreme prejudice. I believe it is time for you to genuflect now. SUBMIT!
