In some ways the parody news sources are closer to the truth. They capture the "essence" many times.

You know it's egregious when you're a liberal newspaper and you're getting pilloried by Yahoo News.

Amazing stuff, I'd say.

I'm not a big Ann Coulter fan, but one of my liberal friends sent me this link a couple of days ago asking for me to explain.

I explained that it was a parody...
