    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        How is that RIP?

        They’ll end up, after a lot of drama, with the same formula they use every time they have a trifecta: take away health care and food assistance from low income families and use the money to fund tax cuts for their donors.

          The Onion stopped being edgy about 8 years ago.

          Do you think that he'll allow stories like this to be published?

            Well then RIP 2016?

              What do we know about Mr Collins? Is he an indoctrinated progressive? I guess some people at the Onion felt shackled to some political perspective, but in which direction did they want to turn, and where will they go with this new freedom?

              Education is extremely important.

                  Ah. So, watch for a version of The Onion that's more overtly left than it used to be.

                    Correct.

                    Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton
