WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)Seizing upon an issue that could become the cornerstone of a possible 2016 Presidential campaign, Senator Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) said on Thursday that he would do everything in his power to block the twenty-first century.
A lot of folks in Washington believe that the twenty-first century is a forgone conclusion, and that theres nothing we can do about it, Rubio said. I say, Not on my watch.
Explaining his strategy, Rubio said that he and fellow Republicans were exploring ways to stop funding any items in the federal budget that pertain to the current century. We cannot stop time, perhaps, but we can defund it, he said.

I honest to god do not know how decent human beings allow this shit to continue.
Tolerating their existence is something we must do as non violent human beings, but they do need to partitioned off into what we could call "insanity corrals" where they would not be able to hurt anyone.
The idea that so many of them actually have political power, well Shirley, that is just insane.
I said something the other day about how do we tolerate their existence and someone immediately accused me of making a threat, dont be an ass, that isnt a threat, it is a rhetorical question that all decent human beings must be asking themselves on a daily basis.

Totally ridiculous.
We all tolerate their existence every day. We should all be getting Medals for our patience.
