Just a reminder that the only thing darker than the center of a black hole is the Onion’s humor when parodying media fatuity.

fatuity. I’ve learned a new word!

Nyog_of_the_Bog on October 8, 2008 at 8:02 PM

Bwahahahahahahaaa!!!!

On a serious note, dems are willing participants in diminishing the roles of potential voters through the despicable practice of abortion.

csdeven on October 8, 2008 at 8:03 PM

Alright, this is HILARIOUS.

muyoso on October 8, 2008 at 8:06 PM

Since when does being dead prohibit you from voting?

fogw on October 8, 2008 at 8:07 PM

The dead Democrats will still be casting votes.

Disturb the Universe on October 8, 2008 at 8:08 PM

The democrats are already way ahead in the brain-dead vote.

scrubjay on October 8, 2008 at 8:09 PM

I see dead voters.

innominatus on October 8, 2008 at 8:10 PM

And the dead Democrats would harm Democratic efforts…how?

amerpundit on October 8, 2008 at 8:11 PM

Allah, please cut that last oreilly/morris clip and post it. It’s definitely what McCain needs to do right now. Just aired 8-8:10 on fox.

lorien1973 on October 8, 2008 at 8:11 PM

Jesus Christ…………….

Completely over the top and disgusting.

AlexB on October 8, 2008 at 8:12 PM

Making jokes out of brutal slayings is not funny. This is sick.

shick on October 8, 2008 at 8:19 PM

Speaking of parodies. Oprah seems to be a bit nervous maybe? More $$$$ for THAT ONE.

PUMAS POWERS ACTIVATE

Chicago media reports famed TV celebrity, Oprah Winfrey, is renewing her support for Barack H. Obama. Oprah made headlines - and filled football stadiums - when she endorsed Obama during the Democrat’s primary contest against Hillary Clinton. Afterwards, her TV ratings fell.

She’s already held one fundraiser at her estate, now she’ll throw him another money party. The invite that surfaced, invites attendees of a conference in the windy city to join Oprah, Barrack and Michelle Obama along with Jill and Joe Biden for $2,3000 per person.

There is no word whether or not fellow Chicagoan Bill Ayers will be joining the confab.

Scroll down…I don’t know how to make the page stop on the article I want. I suck!

Mayor Daly says: “There are no dead Republicans…only involuntary Democrats.”

fusionaddict on October 8, 2008 at 8:20 PM

Save Jeff!

I bet ACORN would find a way.

JammieWearingFool on October 8, 2008 at 8:20 PM

Since lorien started the OT talk,

7 convicted felons were just discovered to be registering voters for ACORN in Milwaukee. It’s on the radio, I’ll look for a link.

BadgerHawk on October 8, 2008 at 8:20 PM

Is it…err..okay to laugh at…err…black humor?!!?

Lockstein13 on October 8, 2008 at 8:21 PM

And yet this has the ring of truth. It rings true.

MirCat on October 8, 2008 at 8:22 PM

Here you go.

BadgerHawk on October 8, 2008 at 8:23 PM

According to STATSIndiana, In 2007, Indianapolis/Marion County had an estimated population of 876,804. Of that number 232,607 were below 18 years of age, for a total of 644,197 people in Marion County/Indianapolis 18 or over and thus eligible to vote. (Indiana allows felons to vote as long as they are not incarcerated).

So we have 644,197 people eligible to be registered in Marion County/Indianapolis, and 677,401 people registered. Congratulations go to Indianapolis for having 105% of its residents registered!

…the really dark thing is that we all know that there are actually folks who do indeed think this way….

…fortunately for Obama, as long as there’s an ACORN, the dead will never be completely gone…just like Madonna, polyester pants and athlete’s foot….

…the Onion…the conscience of the nation….

Puritan1648 on October 8, 2008 at 8:24 PM

I’m speechless…

Kaptain Amerika on October 8, 2008 at 8:32 PM

At least seven felons convicted of crimes including cocaine possession and robbery were recruited by a liberal group to register voters in Milwaukee, raising fears they may have committed voter fraud.

What’s the difference between the felons and the front runner for President? One of ‘em didn’t get caught.

Impressive.

BadgerHawk on October 8, 2008 at 8:33 PM

Is it…err..okay to laugh at…err…black humor?!!?

Lockstein13 on October 8, 2008 at 8:21 PM

…not to do so is raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaacist….

Puritan1648 on October 8, 2008 at 8:34 PM

dead folks have been voting in Barry Hussein’s home town for decades….

SDarchitect on October 8, 2008 at 8:34 PM

Eh, a little too brutal for my tastes.

Bishop on October 8, 2008 at 8:35 PM

“McCain has his fingers crossed…”

I LOVE the Onion.

cannonball on October 8, 2008 at 8:45 PM

yeah sometimes every votes counts more than once or sometimes three and four times. I hope Obama loses his ass off over all the cheating going on.

johnnyU on October 8, 2008 at 8:52 PM

I see dead voters.

innominatus on October 8, 2008 at 8:10 PM

ROTFLMAO!

bspoogeferd on October 8, 2008 at 8:56 PM

I have some bad news for all those dead chicago voters this year:
I am working as a judge this time around.
In my precinct-you aint livin’-you aint votin’.
Bwahahahaha.

annoyinglittletwerp on October 8, 2008 at 9:50 PM

Six of the dead were not of voting age, and so not of consequence here.

Tzetzes on October 8, 2008 at 9:52 PM

I hope this didn’t happen in Indianapolis, where every vote counts twice.

Tzetzes on October 8, 2008 at 9:53 PM

Dude… wicked dark.

lionheart on October 8, 2008 at 10:02 PM

Mass killing=satire of poll obsessed media.

Truly funny.

darii on October 8, 2008 at 10:06 PM

At least some kid wasn’t encouraged to mock O’Reilly with sodomy references and expletives.

That was a very funny vid.

toliver on October 8, 2008 at 10:35 PM

Better than anything I’ve seen from SNL in recent years.

warning;foul words used.

christene on October 8, 2008 at 11:11 PM

Are we sure this wasn’t CNN?

Browncoatone on October 9, 2008 at 6:35 AM

OK, it should be illegal to have something that funny available to view at work…I’m sure I’ve raised some eyebrows after shooting my hot coffee out my nose. I’ve got to stop watching this stuff while drinking…

Geministorm on October 9, 2008 at 10:08 AM

Q) How do you change Republican voters into Democrat voters?

A) Kill them, then register in their name.

Steve Z on October 9, 2008 at 10:12 AM

Eh, a little too brutal for my tastes.

Bishop on October 8, 2008 at 8:35 PM

Same here. I like warped-minded humor, but this one’s a bit too sick for me.

Bigfoot on October 9, 2008 at 10:41 AM

It’s not “over the top” because it is dead-on, so to speak. The way the media magnifies every single detail endlessly is mirrored in this spoof. I was reminded of Greta Van Susteren’s treatment of the most miniscule detail about the death of Anna Nicole Smith’s death as “BREAKING NEWS!!!!!!!!

Great piece..I don’t know how they did it with a straight face.
