Ben Shapiro writes:

If conservatives hope to compete in future elections, they must infiltrate the comic world. They must attack the left with irreverent wit rather than sincere protestation. They must target the president-elect's Hindenburg-sized ego, his sincere belief in political tooth fairies and his monumentally empty slogans. They must target liberalism with humor rather than anger. » read more »

A Somalian arrives in Minneapolis as a new immigrant to the United States. He stops the first person he sees walking down the street and says, 'Thank you Mr. American for letting me in this country, giving me housing, food stamps, free medical care, and free education!'

The passerby says, 'You are mistaken, I am Mexican.'

Why did the chicken cross the road?

BARACK OBAMA: The chicken crossed the road because it was time for a
CHANGE! The chicken wanted CHANGE!

JOHN MC CAIN: My friends, that chicken crossed the road because he
recognized the need to engage in cooperation and dialogue with all the
chickens on the other side of the road.

HILLARY CLINTON: When I was First Lady, I personally helped that little

to ensure -- right from Day One! -- that every chicken in this country » read more »
