Also, this calls for an oldie but goodie:

I've actually been saying that a vote for Romney is a vote for Mad Max, but zombies work just as well.

So voting against Romney just because he's evil is fine but laughing about him is too much.

I'm not voting for either of them so I found this to be funny.

For what it's worth nothing's stopping anyone from trying to make a center-right TV show similar to the Daily Show that caters to the "youth vote" with funny material that ultimately paints Obama as "evil". If people like you don't like the Daily Show you should stop complaining about it and support an effort to make something you think is better. For instance I'd honestly think it'd be funny to see a clever "liberal" version of Stephen Colbert. *shrugs*

Grow up. The Daily Show picks on both candidates. The only reason Republicans get skewered more is because they're utterly ******* insane and it makes for great comedy.|

Swear to god, if I hear another rant about the evil leftist media brainwashing people, I'm gonna go stabby.
Doom.
Yep.
This is really doom.

They've tried. Unfortunately, conservative stereotypes of liberals are often taken seriously by conservatives, not with any comedic value.

So posting partisan juvenile political rants that have nothing to do with the game is ok, but voicing an opposing opinion isn't? Got it. |

Be sure to polish your forum cop badge so that people can see it, your name isn't showing up red for some reason.

That's it, go nuts man. I'm sure it will go about as well as the discussion of your blaster. |

All that is planned fails. All that is born dies.
All that is built crumbles. This will always be true.
But memories remain, And that is beautiful.
