best of : the current issue of "the onion" | "HOLY FUCKING SHIT: ATTACK ON AMERICA"

dude, i realize this is dark humor about a touchy subject, but the recent edition of the onion has some of the funniest and wittiest fucking bits i've ever read.

social commentary hasn't become sacred, and i for one, am fucking glad.



i think one of my favorite bits, just from skimming over it and reading little bits has to be point - counterpoint, just because it encapsulates how fucking stupid some people are being.

Bush Sr. Apologizes To Son For Funding Bin Laden In '80s

MIDLAND, TX— Former president George Bush issued an apology to his son Monday for advocating the CIA's mid-'80s funding of Osama bin Laden, who at the time was resisting the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. "I'm sorry, son," Bush told President George W. Bush. "We thought it was a good idea at the time because he was part of a group fighting communism in Central Asia. We called them 'freedom fighters' back then. I know it sounds weird. You sort of had to be there." Bush is still deliberating over whether to tell his son about the whole supporting-Saddam Hussein-against-Iran thing.
