GOODELL SAYS TO COMBAT DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, TEAMS WILL PLAY
WIVES AND CHILDREN IN WEEKLY PRACTICE GAME
by R J Shulman
NEW YORK - (PTSD News Service) – In a special announcement today,
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said that starting immediately, all NFL teams
must have a weekly scrimmage game in which their opponents will be made up of
the players’ wives, girlfriends and children.
“In our serious effort to tackle domestic violence at the NFL, we are requiring
families to come together, albeit a bit violently, by having wives, girlfriends
and children suit up and play their men and fathers in a sudden death quarter of
NFL football,” Goodell said. “All regular NFL rules will apply to these games,”
he said.
The purpose behind the “Bitches and Brats” Wednesday Night
Football is “to help families let off steam and in the process learn how to play
well together,” Goodell said. “I got
this idea when I finally got to see the video of Ray Rice’s then fiancée’s head
hit the elevator wall and thought that if this had happened on the football
field, it would not only have been accepted by the American public but viewed as
a “great hit,” Goodell said.
“I like it,” Rice said.
“I won’t have to worry about hidden cameras anymore when I want to take
Janay’s head off as game cameras are always out in the open.” “I am
excited to get back on the field knowing that the game I love is where I’ll
have an acceptable place to keep my son in line when he starts acting up,” said
Adrian Peterson, a running back for the Minnesota Vikings who got into trouble
for hitting his son with a switch.
The broadcast rights to Bitches and Brats Wednesday Night
Football was reported to have been sold to Fox Sports for $86 Million dollars.

GEORGIA GOP DEFENDS STRICT NEW VOTING LAW: A
SUCCESSFUL DEMOCRACY NEEDS THE RIGHT PEOPLE VOTING
by R J Shulman
ATLANTA – (PTSD News Service) – The Republican party
of Georgia has responded to criticism that their newly passed voter identification
laws have targeted certain blocks of voters who traditionally vote for the
Democratic Party. “We need to head off
possible voter fraud before it happens,” said Charlie “Grand Dragon” Holmes,
(R-Valdosta) who sponsored the bill.
The White Wash Clean the Corrupted Voter Rolls Protection Act
as it is called, will eliminate from the voting roles anyone who uses the word “axe”
instead of ask. “This law does not
target black people,” said Holmes, “but keeps people from voting who give away
their violent nature by using violent words for normal ones.” Ty Griffin, an African American civil rights
activist from Athens, Georgia, disagrees, saying the law does target black
voters. “All we are axing is for our
right to vote,” Griffin said.
The law also disqualifies anyone from voting who is
able to swallow a quart of Taco Bell Fire Sauce without calling for water. “This is not to disqualify Hispanics,” Homes
said, “it is just to make sure that people who might be hot headed are not
allowed make the important decision of choosing our elected officials.” Homes added that if the person yells, “Agua”
or “no mas” they will not only not be allowed to vote, but will be deported.
The new law which requires picture identification,
does not allow a person holding a student identification to vote but allows a
person with a NRA or gun owner’s permit to vote twice. “It is a sound public policy to limit the
influence of those liberal communist professors who have infiltrated our
colleges, universities and children’s minds and taken away their ability to
vote what they know is right, “Homes said, “and this law is also sound public
policy because it gives extra weight to those brave American patriots who
freely exercise their God-given Second Amendment right to point a gun at a
terrorist or two or someone else if they’ve had a bit too much to drink.”
By a 5-4 vote, the United States Supreme Court upheld
the law as Constitutional. “Hell, I wish
all the states would adopt this law,” Justice Scalia said in his majority
opinion.

IT IS NOW EASIER TO ENTER THE US WITH EBOLA AND THE WHITE HOUSE WITH A KNIFE THAN TO VOTE IN WISCONSIN AND NORTH CAROLINA
by R J Shulman
WASHINGTON – (PTSD News Service) - A new study conducted by the Pew Institute
has revealed that it is more likely that a person will be allowed entry into
the United States carrying the Ebola virus than to be allowed to vote in
Wisconsin and North Carolina after those state’s new restrictive voter laws
were validated by the United States Supreme Court.
“Our study shows that the type of voter identification now
required by Wisconsin in addition to the new restrictions on early voting and
various other provisions that limit people from voting makes it at least five
times harder for a person to successfully vote in Wisconsin than for that same
person to successfully jump a fence and enter the White House wielding a knife,”
said Ryan Cornish, a Pew Institute researcher.
“If Eric Duncan, the man who brought Ebola from Liberia to Texas had
used the same ID he used to get into the country to try and vote in North
Carolina or Wisconsin, he would have been turned away,” Cornish said.
The study also noted that being able to vote in those states
is now more difficult than buying an assault rifle, burning down an air traffic
control center, breaking out of a maximum security prison, or surviving a
conversation between Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian as to which one of them deserves
to be more famous.

ROMNEY: 47% CHANCE I WILL RUN IN 2016
by R J Shulman
GROSSE POINT, Michigan – (PTSD News Service) – In a sit down
interview with New York Times reporter Mark Leibovich, former GOP nominee Mitt
Romney said that 47% of the American people misunderstood his comment that he
didn’t care about 47% of the American people because they were lazy free
loaders. “Actually, Mark,” Romney said, “the truth is that I don’ t
really care about 99.5% of the American people who are lazier than I am because
they have less money than I do, but the number 47 just happened to slip out and
then 47% of the media twisted it and used it out of context.”
Romney said that if at least 47% of his staff had told him
that 47% of Americans would be appalled by his 47% comment, he would have found
47 ways to have articulated his point better.
When asked if he might run for president again, Romney said that since
only 47% of the American people still remember how much they hate him, he has a
47% chance he would do better with the voters in 2016.
Romney denied that he has been obsessing on the number 47
and as proof that he no longer thinks about 47 and has moved on, he is
concentrating on 47 other issues including that 47% of Republicans think the
party needs new ideas for 2016 and that there are 47 reasons why he is the best
new idea for the GOP. “This time if I
ran for President, I would put my 47% comment behind me because there is a 47%
possibility that 47 is not my lucky number.”
