It Is Half Time In America

Why is America in decline? We have done it to ourselves.

Propaganda Gone Awry

This was not done as a parody. Planned Parenthood (San Francisco) actually did this video to try to convince people of their cause. The superhero Dionysus, named for the Greek God of drunkenness, drowns an abstinence advocate, who looks like a dirty old man, then murders abortion protestors with a condom gun, and finally we see the closing credits that utilize condoms as weapons of destruction. This really must be seen to be believed.

Babies, Dancing and Russians

This is making the rounds among my wife's Russian friends. It is very funny.

Kissinger Says Israel Will take Over Middle East

Henry Kissinger, 89, keeps up on current events:

We told the military that we would have to take over seven Middle Eastern countries for their resources and they have nearly completed their job. We all know what I think of the military, but I have to say they have obeyed orders superfluously this time. It is just that last stepping stone, i.e. Iran which will really tip the balance. How long can China and Russia stand by and watch America clean up? The great Russian bear and Chinese sickle will be roused from their slumber and this is when Israel will have to fight with all its might and weapons to kill as many Arabs as it can. Hopefully if all goes well, half the Middle East will be Israeli. Our young have been trained well for the last decade or so on combat console games, it was interesting to see the new Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 game, which mirrors exactly what is to come in the near future with its predictive programming. Our young, in the US and West, are prepared because they have been programmed to be good soldiers, cannon fodder, and when they will be ordered to go out into the streets and fight those crazy Chins and Russkies, they will obey their orders. Out of the ashes we shall build a new society, there will only be one superpower left, and that one will be the global government that wins. Don't forget, the United States, has the best weapons, we have stuff that no other nation has, and we will introduce those weapons to the world when the time is right.

The reason I have tagged this as parody is that it is parody. It is not even a very good parody as there are many things in it that obviously Kissinger would never say. Would even an amateur diplomat say "crazy Chins and Russkies"? Yet lots of bloggers on the Internet actually posted this as if it was really Henry Kissinger. It is from the Daily Squip-a parody site with a British accent. 

Do not forget what Abraham Lincoln once said, "There are a lot of fake quotes on the internet."
