Need a laugh? Check out OneNewsNow.com

Sometimes you just need a laugh during the day.

I sometimes find it at OneNewsNow.com. The “news” site is so far right and biased it makes Fox News look moderate. Also like Fox News, it packages the stories to make them seem respectable.

OneNewsNow.com reads a bit  like The Onion, the satirical newspaper that prints outlandish, made-up “news” stories. The Onion is different, though, in that it has wit on its side.

Today I saw a OneNewsNow story quoting the arch conservative Phyllis Schlafly about President Obama. Gee, I wonder what she had to say?

Schlafly says Obama wants to transform America into a “type of European-style socialism, where the government controls everything.” He’s begun his mission through “Obamacare.”

Ha, ha, ha.

Oh, what a time we live in.  It’s a bad thing to help those who otherwise can’t afford health care or can’t get coverage because of pre-exisiting conditions. It is a good thing to place our faith in unregulated healthcare insurers doing the right thing, even though history shows that insurers follow the money. Yes, God bless America.

Ha, ha, ha.

Check out the “news story” here.

    One News Now is the same organization that does a search & replace function on all AP stories. It searches for the word “gay” and replaces it with “homosexual” which has led to some funny stories about Olympic athlete, Tyson Homosexual.

    People have been saying that Obama is a socialist all along, so what is the surprise? And why is it funny? I have never even heard of this site, but from the looks of it, there are some really good stories on it. It is too bad some refuse to check out the facts before they mock and laugh at something.

    I did not think it was a secret that Obama is a socialist. Also found some really good stories on that site.

    Mr. Barna,
    You seem to imply that those who oppose Obamacare don’t care for the uncovered or those with preexisting conditions. Just because this law prevents Insurance companies from turning down pre-existing conditions does not mean the parents can afford the coverage. Insurance companies will not give you the same price they would for a healthy child. Liberals are so naive.
