    All the justifiable levity notwithstanding, I'm sure that in one Obama campaign strategy book or another it says something about "neutralizing the Nascar demographic."

    I have a Facebook Friend who decided his HILARIOUS AFD would be to tell everyone he got a newspaper job. Dude got like 500 congratulations messages/emails and now has to explain to them that he was fucking with them all.


    What a dummy.

    I fell for the one about animal rights activists demanding that the pathetic Detroit Lions change their name as it's insulting to lions.

    Sort of unrelated, but in the article she says:


    "How about firing all the former Weathermen, like Bill Ayers, Bernardine Dohrn and Mark Rudd, whose university salaries are subsidized by the taxpayer?"


    Maybe because they teach classes, grade papers, etc, etc?

    @JudgeFudge: She also wrote that Obama is apparently forcing school children to recite Muslim prayers... what??? Good lord, I've always thought this woman was awful but I didn't know she makes up such racist bullshit out of thin air. I'm not even sure O'Reilly/Rush/Beck would be able to get away with saying that.

    You mean like invading a country because they were stockpiling weapons, had mobile bio-weapons labs, and were connected to 9-11?


    Oops. Never mind. How many are coming back missing eyes, limbs, third degree burns and psychiatric cases?


    Just curious.

    @misha1000:


    Point me to the the youtube clips of Bush or any administration official connecting 9/11 to Saddam.

    The only connection Saddam had to 9/11 are those who say the Bush administration connected the two together.

    @zefal: Richard Clarke's account of the hours and days after 9/11 contains repeated instances of government officials citing 9/11 as a pretext for an attack on Iraq.


    I realize that's not a Youtube clip. I have a tendency to get my information from books instead.

    "so all the fun has just been leeched out of the pranks."


    Can anyone think of a website that might bear a lion's share of responsibility for this phenomenon? Anyone?

    The problem is everyone, especially on the internet, is so clever now, and hip to the joke-that is the primary tone of 90% of all communication these days, "in on the joke"
