Tears from The Onion

For funny fake news, I turn to The Onion. Here are the headlines from a few hours ago:

President Obama Releases Long-Form Birth Certificate

Hilarious!

Obama Graduates Harvard With Honors, But Pat Buchanan Says That Was Only Because He’s Black

Great Satire!

Limbaugh Attacks Boehner For Not Selling Out Enough To Big Oil

This one is my favorite! It’s so funny I can cry. You can almost here Rush saying such a thing.

Wait. He actually said such a thing? Damn. I’ve been reading Alan.com, not The Onion.

Now I want to cry because it really is today’s news.

But as long as Trump doesn’t make a comment about the black president playing basketball, I’ll be OK.
