Humorists On High Alert After Recent Florida Election
Comedians, cartoonists and Internet satirical sites have been issued the highest alert possible by the Florida Elections Commission following the stateâs primary vote Tuesday.
The news comes just as dozens of humorists had thought they could take the week off due to the solemnity marking the first anniversary of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.
"Dang, I was hoping to go fishing this week," said Calvin Barry, Boise, Idahoâs very own âman of a million laughs.â "But leave it Floridaâs and its confused voters, malfunctioning voting machines, conspiracy theories, candidates threatening lawsuits, public outrageâ¦"
Many old jokes, parodies and witticisms from the 2000 presidential election will now be forced to come out of retirement in the aftermath of this most recent debacle.
