If you're ever afraid of doing things that can make you look bad...

Just remember.

You can literally sell illegal weapons to terrorists... And then work for Fox News.

Wasn't he on Fox like 20 years ago? We don't have to share old stuff to express how bad they are. There's enough bad shit going on today that we can talk about.

Fuck Oliver North.

Considering how much time has passed, he could just change his opinions like a normal human being

Should you trust a public person to share their true personal views? Not really

In the 80s, there was Cold War drama We fought the Commies inside Nicaragua Our friends were the Contras, freedom was their mantra So we sent them lots of money for guns and landmines But Congress stopped the Contra money flow Just 'cause they moved a teeny bit of blow But then a hero came forth, his name was Oliver North He and Reagan went around the sissy Congress

You see, North secretly sold missiles to a harmless country called Iran, who would always be a grateful ally Then he gave the profits to the Contras Genius But the sales were uncovered by the press Reagan and North began to stress 'Cause what they did was technically high treason But it was totally justified North volunteered to take the blame To save Reagan from prison rape shame The truth he did bury with his hot secretary Thanks to her shredder, he got off totally scot-free

He's a soldier And a hero And a novelist And now he's on FOX News

But has anyone found his gold? I mean, below Stan's house, that wasn't everything, right?

i know that in a world i should expect, these people will ultimately be held accountable and will pay for their crimes. i also know that i don't live in that world, and it's getting harder and harder every day to keep on doing this dance.

Makes sense considering Fox is full of deplorable shit bags who pretend to be journalists.
