I so love the Onion. When I need a good laugh nothing, with the exception of a bucket of popcorn, big glass of psyllium husk thickened water (don’t ask) and the company of a really good and equally sarcastic friend with whom to watch Mystery Science Theatre 3000, can compare to the Onion.

So thanks to StumbleUpon Stumbler FerretMom, my really good and equally sarcastic friend, for stumbling me this webpage:

I can’t tell you how much I needed the laugh.

One of my favorite lines was: “At the top of the platform is a military strategy calling for the phased withdrawal of .000006 brigades from Iraq and Afghanistan every seven months over the next 350 years.”

Sadly I had forgotten that during an election year one must not only submerse oneself in the issues but also partake of the vast buffet of political humor. As usual, the Onion does not disappoint.

Thanks, FerretMom, for the reminder. In times of trouble one must always temper the stress with laughter.

wishing you all much laughter,
