Fake real news

by Rob

The sad thing about this humorous mock news story is that it’s true: Nation’s Poor win Election for Nation’s Rich

Wake up, sleepyheads. Wake up.

P.S.
Further lunchtime reading unearthed this gem too, also in the fake-yet-real news genre: White House Claims Mandate By Whole Half Of Nation

… and the as-always, dead-on, balls-accurate (and real) reaction to said mandate, by the inimitable Joe Conason: Echoing Bush’s line won’t help Democrats

Sleepyhead directions: (1) Turn off FOX. (2) Click the links and read the words that appear. (3) Think.

Small consolation but we have to hold on to something.
2 Paul Tomblin { 11.12.04 at 2:08 pm }: No, we’ll get his brother instead. Think of someone as evil and unprincipled as GW, but with some intelligence of his own. Scares the hell out of me.
3 Tim G { 11.12.04 at 3:50 pm }: I wasn’t thinking. God help us.
