This week’s edition of Political Humor Quick Hits is about North Korea and the Grand Canyon…

Looks like Kim Jong Il Woke Up on the Wrong Side of the Floor Again

Apparently the leader of North Korea has returned to his penchant for crawling inside whiskey bottles:

“North Korea followed recent conciliatory gestures toward the U.S. and South Korea with a return to threats Sunday, warning them of “merciless retaliation” over sanctions imposed on its government, and nuclear attacks in response to any atomic provocation.”

To make good on their threat North Korea hired Jim “Wash Out” Pfaffenbach from Hot Shots to be in charge of aiming the missiles.

I think anything Jong says is like a strange text message from a drunken teenager at two in the morning. Perhaps Texts From Last Night should have a section for politicians…

“(2): Haha just learned changing my launch code passwords is fun while drunk but not fun the next morning.”

“(2): I am so wasted right now and I think I just gave those two reporters to Mr. Clinton.”

(The 2 area code number is for Pyongyang by the way. I know, I am guilty of breaking my own rule of explaining a joke but the reference is very obscure.)

Obama Plans to Eliminate Deficit by Burying It in Grand Canyon

After touring the Grand Canyon, Barack Obama made a surprise announcement to the press:

“The majestic beauty and sheer size of the monument was inspirational. When I get back to Washington I will be signing an executive order that buries our nation’s budget deficit of $2 trillion in the Grand Canyon. No longer will the United States bear the burden of having to pay for the mistakes of the previous administration.”

Imagine how much more popular the Grand Canyon will be now. Not only can you go there to see an amazing natural landmark but also a place where Obama can effectively hide all the money his administration is spending.

Think of the possibilities when it comes to the souvenir sales…
