I am OK with the Onion making fun of Republicans and Democrats. However,
the last article is a thinly disguised piece aimed at denigrating lobsters
and is not funny. Rather it attempts to unapologetically ridicule lobsters
in the eyes of the lay public without any redeeming merit.


Boy, that sure makes my blood boil.

The main(e) thing I want to say, and I know I should keep my trap shut, but
you're kind of coming in on the tail end of things.

Now there's no need to be "shellfish."

In fact, the admonishments you lob-ster the pot in an uncessary way!

It's simply "claws and effect."

Great article from The Onion...

What lead you to characterize this tripe as "great"?

Writer has to be a pilot or someone connected with aviation....

"Of course it's scary, but I'm not going to stop flying because of
it," sparrow Darryl Beardsley said, echoing the apparent sentiment
of millions of other sparrows worldwide. "I guess it's just my
nature."

I'm an admirer of good satirical humor, but this thinly disguised
piece aimed at denigrating airmen is not funny. Rather it attempts to
unapologetically ridicule airmen in the eyes of the lay public without
any redeeming merit.

Don't be so sensitive Larry. If you think they were picking on GA then
if you disliked that one you'll love this one about commercial
aviation. http://www.theonion.com/content/node/48747

As others have said, "It's the Onion".

I'd better put this to bed, before I tank my next reply.

Oh, now I see.

Satire from a leftist political perspective == funny
Anything else != funny

Thanks for clearing that up.

You've got to remember to view the event from the prospective of the
time. Nixon was caught red handed, and many of his henchmen served
prison time. Nixon was a CROOK. He deserved to have been impeached,
and would have if he hadn't done some cleaver maneuvering by having
the vice president he appointed pardon him for unnamed crimes when he
resigned. Nixon was so guilty, that specific charges didn't even have
to be filed to trigger the pardon.
