Sloppy. Tsk, tsk. However, this did happen, yes?
Yes. That’s the problem with trying to satirize the GOP. They keep lapping the snarkers…
Be that as it may, this “.co” thingy is something I am unfamiliar with. Explain?
International country code assigned to Colombia, as a top-level suffix.
Here you go. All you do is take the URL of the original site as the name of your site, register it in Colombia, and you’ve got yourself a spoof site.
Actually, World Net Daily were the stupid ones. They asked Carson a dumb question and he came back with a very reasonable answer:
Hopefully, liberals don’t attack those opposed to third terms as “Twenty-Seconders”.
You know, given what an idiotic question he was asked, that’s not a bad answer.
If the president refused to step aside after two terms, we’d oppose it through our constitution.
Well, yes. I blame WorldNetDaily for asking the question.
Fuck you, WND, for posing such a ridiculous question; and fuck YOU too, Dr. Carson, for dignifying it with a response.
I think just for this fuckwitted asshattery, the Democratic Party should recruit Michelle to run in 2016.
Given Carson’s recent troubles, I’m actually glad he got the chance to quote the correct amendment. I’d have felt better if it was an answer to a spoken question so he wouldn’t have had a chance to look it up first.
I just agreed with adaher. Don’t worry, I’m going back through my post to figure out what I got wrong here.
Nah, this time it was just a simple poster error. Didn’t read the link closely enough.
In some ways, FoxNews, WorldNetDaily, Congressional Record, etc. resemble spoof sites. Is it possible that some of the Republican opinions on spoof sites are real? … that they’re trying ideas out and, if not debunked, will move them to more “prestigious” spoof sites like FoxNews?
With the GOP now past even the point of self-parody and more like an ongoing get-drunk-and-barf farce, Americans cannot be expected to recognize spoofing in alleged GOP sentiment.
It’s almost unfair to pit World Net Daily, but when reading that article I found a much better one: What Do You Get When You Rearrange the Letters in “Predsdent Barack Obama?”
Warning-Link goes to WND.
From the link:
“Just for the record, WND has been making the case that Obama is and always has been an ‘imposter.’ He’s simply not constitutionally eligible for the presidency.”
They are not joking. They are still birthers. They still think that nobody with any official responsibility to ensure that our nuclear codes (not to mention the keys to the White House and AF1) are not given to “imposters” has looked into this.
WND is the source of the greatest number of Birther Fails this side of Orly Taitz. My faves are the photoshop image of Obama’s grandparents they fell for (with obvious signs it was fake if they’d just looked at it for more than two seconds) and flying a message banner from a plane over an NFL game - in a roofed stadium..
And that is the short list.
He prefers the spelling “impostor”? Dork.
Curiously, his surname, “Farah”, looks mighty suspicious.
Funnier still is that such a rich jest occurred to the parents of Barack Hussein Obama Sr. when they named him. “Just in case he has a son named after him and the son becomes a president of an English-speaking country!”
No, this was not a reasonable answer. A reasonable answer would have been “that’s a ridiculous question – there’s no evidence that Obama plans to serve a third term”.
HOLY SHIT! That was close! I’m indebted to WND for waiting so long in President Obama’s career before making this public! Things could have been SO different,… But they waited, they waited. WHEW!
