Plugs: Political Irony and Humor Times
America riddled with Political
Irony
Keen observers of the American politial scene understand
that it is rife with irony -- not to mention malfeasance,
mendacity and mind-numbing skullduggery.
Washington is awash in legalized bribery, flip-floppery
and flaming hypocrisy -- churning out a surplus of oxymorons,
regular morons and stone-cold, bought-and-paid-for, bamboozling-the-public
morons.
But back to the irony... The Humor Gazette has learned
that there is an excellent website whose mission is to help
cut through the chaos -- PoliticalIrony.com.
This
is a website
so astute that this week it featured a high-profile plug
for the Humor Gazette, featuring our regal bald eagle boldly
calling out our nation's leaders. Please stop
by for a visit and tell 'em the Humor Gazette sent
you.
Thank you, also, to California-based Humor
Times -- an old-school, new-media
humor publication that "lampoons lame politicians"
while featuring the best in editorial cartoons, columns
and "fake news better than Fox's."

Mitt endorsed by Joe the CEO
Mitt Romney endorsed by Joe the Plumbing Corp. CEO
Mitt Romney's presidential campaign received a major boost
today with an endorsement by an iconic American business
executive -- Joe the Plumbing Corp. CEO.
A
spokesman for Joe the Plumbing Corp. CEO said he supports
Romney's plan to fund tax cuts for the wealthy by cutting
programs that help Joe Six-Pack and Jane Lunch-Bucket. He
also supports Romney's hard-line stance cracking down on
Jose the Illegal Immigrant.
Sources say Joe the Plumbing Corp. CEO is a distant cousin
of Joe the Plumber -- a fixture on the 2008 campaign trail
as John McCain's favorite metaphor for pandering to the
middle class.
Now running for Congress in Ohio, Joe the Plumber is also
plugging a book and filming a hip, 1990s-style sitcom called
"Flush Prince of Bill Ayers." He's also thinking
of actually getting his plumber's license.
Pundits say Romney will soon be announcing new endorsements
from Joe the Birther Joe the Eccentric Billionaire and Joe
the Wall Steet A-Hole.

Romney claims he killed Osama bin Laden
Romney claims he killed Osama bin Laden
One
day after taking credit for the recovering U.S. auto industry
despite vociferously opposing the plan that spurred its
recovery, GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney is now
claiming he killed Osama bin Laden.
The claim spotlights Romneys long-held commitment
to saying absolutely anything regardless of the truth
to get himself elected. Observers say it also confirms
that Romney believes the American electorate is far too
ignorant to stop a lying, pandering phony from becoming
president.
Explaining that President Obama deserves little credit
for killing the al-Qaeda leader because anyone even
Jimmy Carter would have given the order, Romney
said: In fact, I did give the order. Yeah, thats
it. The Navy SEALs were just marvelous. And, of course,
we couldnt have done it without Ted Nugent.

bin Laden, evildoer, 54
