By carefully following the lines one by one, you can see that Egypt and Qatar are against each other, except in Yemen where they are now allies; Saudi Arabia is both supporting and bombing ISIS; and Libya is its own worst enemy.

It's from a 2013 Onion article about her new career choice after leaving the State department. But we all know rip doesn't link sources.

First it was the Jews for Rand promo that raised eyebrows. But now it's just getting ridiculous.

p.s. Thank God for the Funny or Die banner at the bottom of that. Most of those just seem real enough to be true. :P

Is the joke that Hillary is a breakthrough in Alzheimer's treatment? Isn't that a good thing?

edit: wait...is it the wooly mammoth story that's supposed to be the joke juxtaposition? are we saying that Hillary is a wooly mammoth?

I thought it was her green jacket that was the joke. Because, I mean, come on, who wears green jackets anymore? That is so 2008.

If the photo is from the weekend, maybe she just likes golf.

She's actually blocking 2 spots! Although I'm not sure stopping in those spots is the same fine as parking in them.

She can afford to pay the fines with all the tips she's not leaving.

This is going to be an amazing election season if they're already focusing on tip jars and parking sports in April of 2015.

Ding!



As for the parking spot, the car is probably not parked. It's standing. And it's probably secret service. So there's no violation going on there. And I doubt someone is being put out by it standing there for however long it did.

Slow news day indeed.

The rear of the car is clearly on this side of the sign. As I said, he's probably across 2 spots.

If I thought someone who needed to spot was being held up, or that they had parked the car and walked away, I might care.

Also as was said, slow news day makes for absurd "drama".

Also, one could argue that just being Hillary Clinton is a handicap. :)

I guess we could talk about how the pathological liar claimed to have been named after Sir Edmund Hillary.

Of course in keeping with the Clinton tradition she blamed it on her mother the liar.

So she is either a top notch liar or really bad at realizing she is being lied to.

Or more likely both.
