Subversive and Funny

Who doesn't like The Onion? People who can't take a joke, that's who!

Well, there's also the people who have been fooled into thinking it's a real newspaper. They don't like it much, but then, they also think The Colbert Report is a real news program. Oh, wait, it is -- Sorry about that, Mr. O'Reilly.

Oh, oh! I just thought of someone else. George W. Bush isn't real fond of The Onion, either. Niether is Laura, I hear. Or Dick Cheney.

Hmm. Now that I think about it, they've gored pretty much everyone's oxen. Some satire is subtle, some is overt. But mainly, it should take no prisoners. I guess that's why I like The Onion.
