- Syujinkou, on 09/17/2008, -6/+246I actually didn't expect the onion after reading the title
- inactive, on 09/17/2008, -7/+147Is it sad that I thought this could be real before I saw theonion?
- Asheis, on 09/17/2008, -6/+117They forgot her black great grandmother and her asian bff.
- sargeras, on 09/17/2008, -9/+103DOHOHOHOH THE ONION HAS STILL GOT IT
...kill me - Superperson, on 09/17/2008, -9/+88Anyone else notice how Palin's kids are "off-limits" except for when she wants to talk about her soldier son and her baby with Down's Syndrome?
- bicyclethief, on 09/18/2008, -5/+52"Palin has a campaign stop scheduled next week in Texas, where she is expected to introduce her stepsister Linda, a $35 barrel of offshore-drilled crude oil wrapped in an American flag."
- RudeTurnip, on 09/18/2008, -3/+44A McCain/Palin administration would render The Onion redundant.
- mnortei, on 09/17/2008, -3/+35obligatory "oh ***** I thought it was real till I saw it was from the onion" comment
- inactive, on 09/17/2008, -26/+57I wish she'd disappear. Just *poof* and gone. This woman must not be allowed in the white house.
- rz8472, on 09/18/2008, -2/+25I didn't think that this was a joke before I saw it from the Onion. The entire McCain campaign is one huge joke.
- oldgal, on 09/17/2008, -2/+23I was just beginning to like her better and you had to spill the beans that its The Onion.
- GKaushik, on 09/18/2008, -1/+22after the antics we've seen in this election so far, yeah...i believed it.
- GBPACKGB, on 09/18/2008, -1/+21Anyone else notice that Superperson isn't running for the 2nd highest job in the world?
- BossKey, on 09/18/2008, -1/+21I never thought I'd fall for a headline like that before checking for theonion.com, but it's all over.
I blame you, Sarah Palin, for helping to make dangerous implausibility plausible. - trisweb, on 09/18/2008, -4/+21I think the whole country should be told, in a giant nationwide public service ad, that you are NOT in high school anymore, and the presidential election is NOT a popularity contest or a beauty pageant. Please, vote with your brain and not any other part of your body, including but not limited to your "heart" or your "gut" or your "dick."
- MattNF, on 09/18/2008, -1/+18Hey, I read that in the story too!
- ncc74656m, on 09/18/2008, -0/+17Read the title and went "Wait, are you for ***** real?"
Then saw "theonion.com." I sighed a sigh of relief so loud the office was looking at me. - TunaFishGangsta, on 09/18/2008, -2/+19McCain is 72 years old. Average life expectancy for a male in our country is 74 years. There is a strong probability that he will die of from old age during his first term.
He's also had cancerous lesions removed from his body several times. That doesn't help his chances.
Even if he doesn't pass away, the man is showing the first signs of dementia. He doesn't even know on which continent Spain is found. Is this not enough? - Elranzer, on 09/18/2008, -3/+19Liberals (aka intellectuals) can recognize satire a mile away. It's always Conservatives who get uptight about humor (and everything else).
- TunaFishGangsta, on 09/18/2008, -3/+17Wishing won't make it so.
You have to register to vote and make an effort by calling friends and relatives and telling them how you feel and why. - AndrewDB, on 09/18/2008, -2/+15I'm going to walk up to some sick and dying kid in the Make a Wish thing and tell them to make their wish that "John McCain and Palin not be allowed in the white house." as it's not illegal, not evil, and can be used for the general good of humankind.. they have to grant it.
- FredFredrickson, on 09/18/2008, -0/+12I definitely thought this wasn't an Onion article from just reading the headline. Yes, I expect that much (or maybe that little) of the Republican party at this point. Wheel out the sideshow.
- amzran, on 09/18/2008, -1/+13I wasnt expecting the onion either.
Wow. - gsnedders, on 09/18/2008, -0/+11A satirical article posted under comedy!? What's wrong with that!
- DreKor, on 09/18/2008, -1/+12McCain seems to have trouble with that too.
- hawkdude56, on 09/18/2008, -1/+12Not at all... I'm guilty of this too, along with a likely 50% of those who read it as well.
- TunaFishGangsta, on 09/18/2008, -4/+15Better than "because Jesus tells you so". At least we have facts supporting our opinions.
- JonMcL, on 09/18/2008, -0/+11hey genius.. it's comedy.. i would say it was correctly categorized.
- bumzab, on 09/18/2008, -2/+12'Well, how much power does the VP have, anyway?'
I pity you for not knowing the evils of Dick Cheney. - kamaldasa2, on 09/18/2008, -2/+12If people would stop digging so many stories about her that may happen. I am a liberal but have been burying many Palin stories because most are just keeping her in the spotlight. We need to put McCain back in the spotlight and under the microscope.
- badlogik, on 09/17/2008, -0/+9Uh... what?
- weaksnyc, on 08/14/2009, -0/+9"Palin has a campaign stop scheduled next week in Texas, where she is expected to introduce her stepsister Linda, a $35 barrel of offshore-drilled crude oil wrapped in an American flag."
...hahahahahaha - Premier, on 09/17/2008, -2/+10I didn't find this unbelievable for Palin
- shipwreck58, on 09/18/2008, -0/+8Funny! A little Lesbian MILF firefighter action never hurt anyone.
- coyote1284, on 09/18/2008, -2/+10Obama-Kool-Aid is cooler and more refreshing than old McCain Cola!
- JamesPDX, on 09/18/2008, -0/+8WTF! She left out her Muslim first cousin once removed! That BITCH!!!!!!!
- bakagaigin, on 09/18/2008, -0/+8Haven't you guys heard of sarcasm? sheesh.
- NJank, on 09/18/2008, -0/+7that was humor.
- coyote1284, on 09/18/2008, -0/+7***** your partisanship, no one mentioned Huffington Post. All this polarization is precisely why this article exists.
- inactive, on 09/17/2008, -0/+7Uhm... holy *****. Congratulations, this is officially the most ridiculously terrible comment I have ever seen on digg. Back to kindergarten with you.
- 7m7uf, on 09/18/2008, -1/+8"...her stepsister Linda, a $35 barrel of offshore-drilled crude oil wrapped in an American flag"
LOL'd SO HARD! The office is now looking at me. - FredFredrickson, on 09/18/2008, -1/+8For the McCain campaign, yes, but not for you.
- rootnik, on 09/18/2008, -1/+8Onion + Palin = automatic front page.
- thugok, on 09/18/2008, -0/+6Politics has been about labels and smearing for a long time. Anything to avoid actually talking about the issues.
- nickels, on 09/17/2008, -7/+13The Onion knocks another one out of the park - hilarious!
- TWillz, on 09/18/2008, -0/+6Lighten the ***** up.
- slimkevi, on 09/18/2008, -0/+6Sounds the beginning of a bad joke.... oh wait
- miked123, on 09/18/2008, -1/+7Ditto. And I find that horrifying. ***** identity politics.
- TTURabble, on 09/18/2008, -1/+7Quick and dirty (I'm at work): SFW
