Good god -- Marion Barry coke jokes? Very cutting edge.

There's the requisite Silly Negroes angle, a rightwing humor staple. And "gay penguins"? Put "gay" in front of anything, and if you're a reactionary, it's comedy gold.

Fox would be better served to just let Dennis Miller or Colin Quinn do the fake news. If you're looking to "offend," at least go with a pro.
