  1. Sounds more like Hillary.

  2. Actually this almost happened for real. After Michael Jackson died there were so many people around the world on the Internet searching for all things MJ-related that the Internet was under immense strain and slowed way down for many people.

  3. "Thank you Obama, you're a godsend." Obama keeping jobs over here is better than keeping no jobs at all. Reagan and Clinton were the ones who got this "let's outsource our jobs" shit rolling.

  4. That's probably how all presidents for the past 35 years have been elected. They're all owned by the same interests anyway. Both parties.

  5. I fell out of my damn chair laughing as soon as I saw the title of this video. Lol!

  6. Exactly. Africa's economy is struggling (well, not all of it but a lot/most of it) because the US and the EU use Africa along with other developing regions as warehouses of cheap labor and resources. If Africa ever takes control of its labor markets and resources the West would have only two options: start treating them as an equal trade partner or watch their supply of cheap imports and outsourced industry dwindle.

  7. Lol, if they get desperate enough they might actually try this.

  8. The Pentagon's Unmanned Spokesdrone has been President ever since JFK was assassinated. Every 4 years they just hold a charade to give the public the illusion that it changed appearance.

  9. You do realize the main source of the deficit is the War? Insanely larger deficit? Obama has spent $2.7 Trillion so far. Bush spent $11.5 Trillion. When Obama spends as much as Bush then we can talk.

  10. He claimed ACORN was going to receive billions of dollars and they weren't. They've made a whopping $23 million since 1994. Less than the Salvation Army. Don't let that EEEVIL Acorn Illuminati get you! He claims the SEIU is behind just about everything but never offers evidence. Ironically most of his fans had never even heard of either of these organizations prior to 2008. Glenn Beck should be an embarrassment for conservatives.

  11. No he didn't: mediamatters (dot) org / research / 200909020004 Sean Hannity (who started this rumor) is distorting an article.

  12. Lol, "Onionheads". Is that what they're calling us Onion viewers now? Rofl.

  13. Sadly that map of Africa pretty much represents the average American's (of all races) knowledge of Africa.

  14. So far Obama has spent about $2.7 Trillion (Bush spent $3.1 Trillion in just six months). $23 Trillion refers to all the potential assets, stocks and bonds of the corporations bailed out that they have in the global economy. Not the amount of money they were given.

  15. WHY OH WHY couldn't Glenn Beck have been on that planet that crashed today and killed Ted Stevens?

  16. It is ridiculous isn't it? I'm 23 and I'm always a bit baffled by how grown-ass adults who are 2 to 3 times older than me can actually fall for this crap. Anyone with at least a brain stem can see the logical holes in his "airtight theories". His "theories" are like a bad spoof of Stephen Colbert's "The DaColbert Code" except Beck appears to be serious. But his audience isn't rational. Their world is coming apart and they want to blame anyone but themselves.

  17. Lol, Friendster. What civilization?

  18. If only it had been Glenn Beck that died yesterday instead of Amy Winehouse. I wish Glenn Beck would take Justin Bieber along with him!

  19. Exactly. Even though I don't care for his ideology I'd have more respect for him if he weren't so dishonest. Most of what he says is nonsensical conspiracy theories that he makes up on the spot. Like accusing NBC of being Communists because they're in a building with a piece of artwork made by an artist who was a communist because it was put there by Rockefeller (who he then accused of being a communist). Seriously. The world's biggest capitalist is a communist for owning a piece of art? WTF?

  20. Dude..........I would so eat ALL of those....

  21. Well, $23 Trillion is how much could possibly be lost were all those corporations to fail. The actual bill doesn't agree to cover all their losses. Most economists agree the possibility of them losing all that is very, very remote. I know the Dems supported the war (and the Patriot Act), I can't stand either party. IMHO the election should have been between Dennis Kucinich and Ron Paul.

  22. They're needed elsewhere like Lechnya.

  23. Lol, that map of Africa is pretty much about how much many Americans know about Africa unfortunately.

  24. Idi Amin and Mubuto Sese Seko were both backed by the West as bulwarks against communism in Africa. Mubuto is actually believed to have been inserted by the CIA itself after the mysterious assassination of former democratically-elected socialist president Lumumba. Idi Amin was supported by the US against Obote until he went crazy. The US government has backed many dictators before.

  25. Rid Congress of gang members? You'd have to get rid of 99% of Congresspersons.

  26. Is it just me or does that Congolese economist look like Gary Coleman 10-15 years from now?

  27. "Thats probably good compared to the rest of Africa" Less than 5% of Africans in total have AIDS.

  28. Lol, this is nothing new. 99% of US politicians ARE robots and almost all US presidents in modern history have been Manchurian Candidates.

  29. True but conservatives were the same way about Bush. I was called "anti-American" like 300 times over the years for being a non-believer in Bush.

  30. I don't know what's funnier: the Onion videos themselves, the comments from people who think it's real or armchair political scientists with Ph.Ds from the University of Mom's Computer arguing politics on YouTube.

  31. "From my point of view (Europe) looks like the biggest racists in the USA are the black guys." That's just opinion. Every group claims the other group is more racist. It's word against word and there's no way to quantitatively measure which group is more racist.

  32. Such as what?

  33. @ahhhhjjjj - That's my ideal world. Sounds sorta anarcho-communistic.

  35. This is kind of racist but it's funny. Sorry. I'm black and I've laughed at jokes about black athletes running fast because their ancestors are supposedly used to running from cheetahs.

  36. 1) I didn't say this video was real, dumbass. I know what The Onion is. 2) I didn't say there is a central hub. No shit. 3) Even though the Internet has no "central hub" of course it was backed up by all the traffic after MJ's death. This wasn't just some shit on Twitter. This was in the Wall Street Journal: blogs (dot) wsj (dot) com/ digits/ 2009/ 06/ 26/ the - day - the - internet - almost - died / Instead of hauling off and calling names why don't you ask me what I meant next time?

  38. I wonder if any schizophrenic people saw this and if so I wonder what they thought. I also wonder what any of them who see this video and read this comment think about the fact that I'm behind them right now and that I'm in their head while they sleep. ˙ɹǝpɹo plɹoʍ ʍǝu ǝɥʇ ǝɹoɟǝq ʍoq ˙sʇɥƃnoɥʇ ɹnoʎ ǝǝs uɐɔ sǝʇɐılıɟɟɐ lǝʇuıoɔ ʎɯ

  39. Storyline made sense? How does an extremely high tech civilization being suddenly destroyed by a supernova make sense? Stars take millions of years to go supernova, not weeks.

  40. I just noticed that @ 1:15 there's a sign above the kid's head that says "He's actually a boy" LMAO!!

  41. Sad. Seems like a lot of the American people care more about corporations than they care about their own selves. And what's even sadder is that the corporate masters they defend don't give a dam about them.

  42. Seriously. If it's okay for Glenn Beck to joke about poisoning and killing Nancy Pelosi and poking and prodding people to enact violence against Pres. Obama and/or Obama voters why is it not okay to joke about Glenn Beck not dying? Conservatives are the main people who complain about political correctness but when their own idols and sacred cows are attacked they become PC just like most everyone else.

  43. Exactly. ;)

  44. Does anyone know if fire speaks English?

  46. In other news Jerry Sandusky offered to give 12-year old boys testicular exams......

  47. "True enough, but it's a lot better than some Commie owning all their asses." Corporate masters, bureaucratic masters - same shit.

  48. Can you list what he has fucked up so far?

  49. This must be what the world feels like to Fox News viewers. At least the way they carry on about Obama and everything to the left of Bush.

  50. Well, we'll have to see. Maybe the sane Americans are ready for more control over their own lives and sick of the status quo but apparently a nice percentage are also batshit crazy and fighting to bring back the Bush years.
