Political Humor and Must Laugh Links

Given the current political situation in our nation’s capitol where it seems funny as hell to not do the people’s business I thought it would be nice to have a few laughs on them. Pick a political subject or any politician and they are all guilty of telling you who is to blame for NOT getting the job done. Rather than let it turn your stomach sick it is probably best for your well being to have a good laugh or two. This is just a quick roundup of political humor sites that I thought were pretty damn funny. Let me know what you think?

Obama Correspondents Dinner Video

One of the events I always love to see is the White House Correspondents Dinner. Only at this event can our nations President’s relax and throw out a few good belly laughs. President Obama was in rare form at the 2009 gathering of reporters and journalists.

Below is the first video of the dinner speech from President Obama with additional video links to part two and three…

Swine Flu Prevention Tip
“Don’t Do This!”

*****

It had been said that in America , if a black man were elected President, it would be, “when pigs fly”. Lo and behold, 100 days into Obama’s Presidency……SWINE FLU!!! - Author Unknown

The other day my neighbor, who is blonde, came running up to me in the driveway jumping for joy!

I didn't know why she was jumping so excitedly but I thought, 'what the heck', and I started jumping up and down along with her.

She said, 'I have some really great news!'

I said, 'Great. Tell me why you're so happy.'

She stopped jumping and breathing heavily from all the jumping up and down,
told me that she was pregnant.

I knew she'd been trying for a while so I told her,
'That's great I couldn't be happier for you !'

Then she said, 'There's more'

I asked, What do you mean there's more ?

She said, 'Well, we are not having just one baby.
We are going to have TWINS !'

Amazed at how she could know so soon after getting pregnant, I asked her how she knew.
She said ....

(You're going to love this !)

'Well, that was the easy part. I went to Sam's Club and they actually had a home pregnancy kit in a TWIN-pack. Both tests came out positive !' - Author Unknown

This one caught my eye and it turns out it was a scam. Popcorn being popped by cell phones… Somebody ran a marketing scam for cell phone head sets. This is a spoof on the myth that just a couple of cell phones can do more than just pop popcorn.

Then we have this one on the current scare over Swine Flue becoming a pandemic…

Then we have this for those of us with a personal religious philosophy for our lives…

This is a hoot, but I suspect the minister didn't appreciate it.
A minister was completing a temperance sermon. With great emphasis he said,'If I had all the beer in the world, I'd take it and pour it into the river.'

With even greater emphasis he said, 'And if I had
All the wine in the world, I'd take it and pour it into the river..'

And then finally, shaking his fist in the air, he
Said, 'And if I had all the whiskey in the world,
I'd take it and pour it into the river.'

Sermon complete, he sat down.

The song leader stood very cautiously and announced
With a smile, nearly laughing, 'For our closing song,
Let us sing Hymn #365, 'Shall We Gather at the River.'

Have a great weekend!

First Class or Coach

If you ever wondered what the difference is between First Class and Coach when you fly this picture explains it all!

Picture and Author unknown.

MSNBC has the released FAA tapes from the cockpit to air traffic control in New York's Laguardia tower for the U.S. Airways crash into the Hudson River in New York. You have to give the Captain of the U.S. Airways plane credit for being calm and cool under pressure. How the hell he pulled off a water landing with a jet that size is something I'm sure that every airline will be studying for decades and using his experience to train future pilots. Added to Captain Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger's record is that not one person died in this crash! Now that is a great pilot. Check this out from MSNBC on the conversation Sully had with the Tower...

Media Bias has to STOP!

Come this Tuesday when Barack Obama is sworn in as the 44th President of these United States of America it will be yet one more first that America has achieved. America is the land of new thoughts, and now a new cultural exploration with our melting pot of people. It is now the time to end the media bias in news reporting.

It’s almost sickening to turn to any network for a liberally biased or right wing biased report of the same damn facts. Facts don’t lie, it is the reporters interpretation and presentation of these facts that dictates bias. Enough is enough. Media Bias has to Stop!

The REAL Dirt On Barack Hussein Obama

BY MICHAEL LINN JONES

Let's just get this over with. Political campaigns are filled with the most childish innuendo...like knocking someone to the ground while batting eye lashes and giggling. It's not exactly straightforward. And so, having gleaned some of the aspirsions cast against Senator Obama, I thought it prudent to just list them all. That way there is no more guessing, no more sleight of hand.

Here is the list. Hopefully you will find it complete. However, I understand much more will be revealed if Sen. Obama continues to capture the attention of the American people.:

1. OBAMA CHOSE HIS NAME AT BIRTH!

This may be hard to believe, but if you don't, just ask Ann Coulter or Rush Limbaugh. They KNOW what they're talking about. As baby Obama left his mother's womb, his first words were, "I want to have Hussein as a middle name!"

2. OBAMA DEMANDED TO BE MUSLIM AT BIRTH, TOO!!

It is a little known fact that right after baby Obama demanded Hussein as his middle name, he also specified that he be raised as a Muslim.

3. OBAMA RUINED HIS FAMILY LIFE AND IS A CONTROL FREAK

This allegation is obvious due to the fact that at age 3 or 4, young Obama kicked his father out of the house and forced his mother to move to Tanzania, or Indonesia, or someplace where weird people live. People who use names like "Barack" and stuff like that.

4. He drinks water from PLASTIC BOTTLES!!

5. He has hugged women WHO ARE NOT HIS WIFE!

6. He used to SMOKE CIGARETTES!!!

7. He has recited the pledge of allegience ..... AND HE DIDN'T EVEN WRITE IT!!

8. He is a LIBERAL who believes that the Constitution ACTUALLY MEANS SOMETHING!

9. He doesn't put shopping carts back where they belong EVEN IF THERE IS A CART CORRAL NEARBY!

10. He has refused to GO QUAIL HUNTING WITH VICE PRESIDENT CHENEY!!

Thank God we at least have another 11 months of a God-fearing, pious man in the White House who is not intimidated by terrorists (whether they be foreign or domestic critics), due process of law, common sense, or any interference with the Presidential Sceptre by some dead crackpots having written a bunch of luney ideas on a scrap of paper and calling it a Constitution.

This nation doesn't need some egghead like Barack Obama as president. No, we need someone with the stalwart dedication to his goals like President Bush, no matter how deranged they may be. We need a fighter, or at least someone willing to let someone else fight for him.

America deserves order; it deserves protection from itself whenever it goes off on one of these wild tangents involving "representative government" and other such nonsense.

Now that you know the truth, the half-truth, and nothing approaching the truth.....you are better equipped to deal with the election process.

It's the least I can do.

NOT THE NEWS FLASH! Monica Lewinsky Throws Thong In The Ring: Cites White House "Experience"

BY MICHAEL LINN JONES

NOTE: THE FOLLOWING IS A COMPLETE FABRICATION USING THE NAMES OF REAL PEOPLE. YES, A PACK OF LIES, BUT THEN THAT QUALIFIES ME AS A GOOD SPEECHWRITER.

P.U. News Service (Washington)--- In a hastily arranged press conference, former White House intern Monica Lewinsky declared herself a candidate for president.

Lewinsky is basing her qualifications upon the premise of White House experience, basing THAT upon Senator Hillary Clinton's claim of said experience.

The new candidate expanded upon this: "Look, I've thought about this. A lot. I mean, I have White House experience too. (snide chortling from some reporters). I've been willing to stick my neck out on the job (murmured laughter) and besides, I wouldn't have gotten into all that trouble if Hillary had been doing her REAL White House job in the first place."

Asked about foreign policy experience, Lewinsky emphasised that she visits Cancun at least once a year. Also, she claims extensive service in South Padre Island. (statement later retracted when it was pointed out that South Padre Island is in Texas)

Lewinsky continued:

"We need a woman in the White House. But not just any woman, and certainly not THAT woman (Hillary Clinton). This country needs someone in the White House who is willing to get on their knees in the Oval Office in service to the American people. And I've done that. Just ask the Smithsonian, they have the proof."

A reporter asked, "Does this mean you're willing to put your money where your mouth is?"

Lewinsky replied, "Yes. Or vice versa"

Riotous laughter broke out, security was called and the room vacated, ending the press conference.

Asked for comment, Senator Clinton demurred, although one reporter overheard her muttering, "That stupid b****!"

Former President Bill Clinton was also contacted. His first response was "Who?" Pressed on the matter, however, Mr. Clinton said that he has not ever had sexual relations with either woman.

Clinton brushed by reporters on his way to begin a short vacation from his wife's campaign.

Reportedly, his destination is.....Cancun.

********************************************

P.U. Weather Update:

After Green Bay's loss to the Chicago Bears at Soldier's Field...a game played in conditions so bleak even Polar bears wouldn't do the wave....quarterback Brett Favre was asked for comment.

"I'll be honest with you. It was cold as hell out there."

Nicely said, Mr. Favre, and let's hope the Dallas Cowboys regret having home field "advantage" when the Packers come calling. (NOTE: P.U. News is totally biased. Since the Carolina Panthers totally turned to mush this year we don't really care who wins the Superbowl. As long as it's not Dallas. So there.)
