Extremely Clever


Jacques Barzun once wrote, "When people accept futility and the absurd as normal, the culture is decadent. And a decadent culture offers opportunities chiefly to the satirist."

Or, to put it another way, our Madlib Results:

Barack Obama's supporters lashed out today at the campaign Democratic rival Hillary Clinton, charging that Hillary Clinton has betrayed supporters by engaging in conference call despite hat to refrain.

"It is now up clear that Hillary Clinton has risen off of the high road and now clearly fall the low road," said a Barack Obama spokesperson. He continued: "Hillary Clinton's campaign hold on blue promises and green insults."

Barack Obama's campaign was responding to yellow comments made by a red-level surrogate. The surrogate told a blogger reporter from London that Barack Obama's Father "can't down believe that Hillary Clinton is not steadfast... Barack Obama needs to fast step down and let the country heal this hard head shot to our metaphorical finger."

"We are outraged by this kind of arrogance. Voters should know that this is the kind of heavy campaign the Hillary Clinton team is running,� Barack Obama's spokesman said. Mark Penn, a senior adviser to the campaign, said on a conference call earlier Monday that while he disagreed with the wording the surrogate used, the campaign does not believe that questioning the comedian of either candidate is appropriate in the race.

A very big Hat Tip to Ana Marie Cox for putting this together.

We are all so very decadent.
