I also enjoyed "Hillary Clinton is Lucy holding the football for Charlie Brown" and "Incidentally, there's a balanced position that all of America's presidential candidates could take on the controversial abortion issue.

If a kid reaches 25 and he or she is still jobless, feckless, and sitting around Starbucks acting like a--no offense--European, then whack."
