Nuke the Punchline - We'll Help Your Kids

Harvey over at IMAO has posted a new straight line of the day, so it is time to choose the winners of the last one:

After Hearing of a New Study Showing That TV Makes Kids Stupider, President Obama…

(The Old Study)

#5 tinman: … told reporters “If I had a son that watched TV, he’d look a lot like Joe Biden.”

#4 Dohtimes: …scrapped all the free lunch programs and ordered a hundred billion TV dinners.

#3 walruskkkch:...blamed all his scandals on tv watching children.

#2 John: ...Made no correlation between the study and his 200 prime-time, televised speeches, his 65 appearances on The View, Leno, Stewart, et al…

And my favorite straight line of the day was from D***Cat:

After Hearing of a New Study Showing That TV Makes Kids Stupider, President Obama...proposed a new government program of free TVs for anyone up to age 26.

My favorite NP punchlines:


Detroit billboards "Your Vote is Your Voice" were displayed with the wrong election date. The next typo... 

#3 can of spam:... will lead to the first Republican in over 60 years being elected mayor after the "R" is misprinted as a "D".

#2 Bob B. :...will be crushed by the Grammar Hammer!

My favorite line was from Dohtimes:

Detroit billboards "Your Vote is Your Voice" were displayed with the wrong election date. The next typo...will be either Jimmy or jw Bogarting my snacks by referencing a story by their favorite reporter Cookie Roberts. [it could happen! :) ]


Toffee Trifle to Dohtimes!

  7. ... they got an M.E. rather than an Emmy.

    ... they launched an ad campaign to inform people that, though it sounds similar, it is not "Meet the Pres."

    ... they hired a community organizer to solve their problems. What? You mean community organizing isn't relevant enough experience to run something as difficult and important as a TV show???

  8. ...they sent both of their viewers a get well card, just in case.
