Political Humor

And it was hiding on the grassy knoll.

It was the one that was uploaded to Anthony Weiner’s Twitter feed. This explains everything and is much more plausible than the notion of a crazy liberal assassinating his political career all by himself.

So, Weiner was hacked by a prankster looking to make fun of his last name with a picture of what possibly could be his junk. Or not, he can’t be certain.

Don’t worry because he has launched an investigation. Guess who he hired?

Fresh off the case of the Alphabet Bandit (the one where they discovered the M was actually disquised as a W), Daily KOS CSI arrived on the scene and determined this was a conspiracy.

See, the user hacked Weiner’s account, posted the picture, took a screenshot, then either surrendered control to Weiner or deleted the picture himself. Then he sent the screenshot to Big Government, who posted it there.

Despite the best efforts of Daily KOS law enforcement the hacker remains at large. All Democratic Congresspersons are advised to be aware and prepared, and ready in case the hacker decides to post incriminating pictures on their twitter accounts.

He could strike at any time.

And conservatives are joining the search for the hacker at large too. Gateway Pundit is offering a $200 reward for information leading to the capture of the Weinergate Hacker. Iowahawk has put up $1,000 to bring the Weiner Hacker to justice.

Maybe Harold Camping was right. From where I stand the craziness signals the end of the world.

(And I thought it was bad the first and second time I asked the question.)

There is, for starters the most-interesting timing award, which goes to Barack Obama for claiming the pre-1967 borders were the starting point for Isreal-Palestinian peace talks.

Always good to whip out that kind of talk during the same week the media is all over an end-of-the-world prediction. Then we hear about Iran and their testing of nuke trigger devices.

This is the same country that thinks black magic and genies are influencing their politics.

We have male reporters attempting to lactate to spice up a story on the topic. And by spice I mean confessions:

It was strange to apply a breast pump for the first time. My nipples aren’t accustomed to regular stimulation, and though I felt like I was defying the natural order, pumping was surprisingly pleasant. Nipples are filled with nerve endings, after all, and the gentle upward tug of the pump was both comforting and erotic.

The end of the world sometimes means throwing up in one’s own mouth, by the way.

People are hiding the gender of their children for fear of some kind of stigma. Or something.

“We’ve decided not to share Storm’s sex for now–a tribute to freedom and choice in place of limitation, a stand up to what the world could become in Storm’s lifetime (a more progressive place? …),” it said.

That’s right. They’re not saying whether Storm is a boy or a girl…

…”In fact, in not telling the gender of my precious baby, I am saying to the world, ‘Please can you just let Storm discover for him/herself what s (he) wants to be?!.” she wrote in an email.

Coming soon to the 2020 US Census: a box to check off non-gender. End of the world? Maybe. Another label for people who hate labels? Yes.

NPR is actually concerned about perceived bias after taking George Soros’ money last year.

So is the world ending? I don’t know. But these are interesting times. And by interesting I mean effed up.
