Waste of bandwidth...…

Stupid chit like this, be it attempt at humor, outright fabrication, non truths, or deceit, is second or third worst attribute of the internet... You do realize that maybe half of Americans will read that and give it serious consideration for true fact....

it’s the opposite of stupid, it was brilliant. there are so many layers of liberal folly being exposed and made fun of here, the entire internet was worth inventing just for this.

i don’t think many people think it’s legit. when people see alec baldwin imitating trump on SNL, do people think it’s really Trump?

i’m a real snob when it comes to comedy, not much makes
me crack up. it was brilliantly hilarious, and also teaches an important lesson about where
liberalism is in this country right now.

Agree, it’s right out of the Russian play book.

I think it's liberalism that's right out of the Russian playbook (trying to make 51% of the voters feel marginalized, by blaming conservatives for everything), and this makes fun of that.

Babylonbee doesn't pretend to be news. It's set up as a fake site. It's the website equivalent of SNL, that's all it is.

But Jim, you are putting yourself out on the edge with your constant bashing, IMO. I for one, do not appreciate being played for stupid by Trump and being told bold faced lies. I voted for him, by default (against HRC), but this administration is pure insanity...… daily.

I bash when it's deserved, I praise when it's deserved. I have praised Obama and I have criticized Trump. I don't engage in constant bashing. Warren deserves to be made fun of in my opinion, as does the liberal notion that everyone who disagrees with them, is a hatemonger.

There's a TON of dysfunctionality, but also a lot of accomplishments that have helped regular, middle class people.

Bully in high school? It’s the same logic when you think anyone deserves to be made fun of, runs rampid in this board, name calling is the norm.

"Bully in high school?"

Nope.

Warren is a victim, that's what you're saying? She's a multi, multi-millionaire, a US Senator, a liar, a fraud, and a hypocrite.

Making fun of her, and making fun of someone who can't defend themselves, are not remotely the same thing. She is the bully. For example, she used her platform to call the Covington kids "hateful", and the school received bomb threats. SHE is the bully.

Oh come on guys - it's basically the same type of satire as is on the pages of The Onion which is also hilarious on occasion.

I don’t like Warren but I’ve barely recovered from years of that crap ahead of and since the 2016 election, I feel like politics and this board at times is a contest to see who can be the nastiest and most inappropriate.

‘nasty’ is making fun of people for things they can’t help, like being short or disabled. No one forced Warren to pawn herself off as a native american and to constantly lie about it, no one forced her to get rich off college students and foreclosed homes, while she attacked others who did the same thing.

does it bother you when liberals satire conservatives, or only the other way around? no one gets made fun of more than trump.

Thanks for proving my point, did you guys get beat up in English classes in your youth and now feel the need to pass on the abuse and insults? They say abusive people usually come from an abusive upbringing, you guys must have had it rough.

Im in Sarasota enjoying 85 degree sunny days, have a fishing trip scheduled Saturday, sorry the rampant was spelled wrong, OMG you guys can find the stupidest crap to bitch about.

Remember, this is how they distract themselves from reality.
