We need a good DU satire.. let's beat the media to the punch
on the EPIC "Kennedy vs. a concrete barrier and his own car". We should pull a Colbert and report it as they are BOUND to do today, tomorrow, and over the weekend.

(I have no ear for writing this stuff, but someone with a proclivity shouldn't have a tough time. . it's so damn stupid and predictable)

1. "Pull a Colbert" ... ?
That doesn't sound at all truthy.

Besides, Colbert will surely be covering it. He won't have to "pull a Colbert" -- he IS Colbert!

Meanwhile, we should be sure to inquire about the identity of the man Kennedy shot in the face while he was showing off for his extramarital girlfriend, and whether there were gambling and hookers and Republican bribes at the place he was served liquor.

Because everybody knows that all the Kennedys are drunks. The CIA/FBI/GOP would never slip any of them a mickey and take down the cautionary road signs.

Right?

--p!

6. Sorry, no extramarital girl friend. Don't think he's ever married.
Not that I particularly care, one way or the other. I'm so "yuropeen" that way.

2. I'm all for satire...
But what IF he really was drunk and avoided a sobriety test and a mug shot based on his name recognition?

(I bet Cynthia McKinney is pissed.)

5. I just wish we all had one freebie card for these kinds of things.
I'm just jealous.
