Stevieslaw: Honest Hypocrisy

Some Senate Republicans have cautiously moved away from their candidate for Senate in Alabama, Roy Moore. That, after charges that Moore preyed on teenage girls surfaced this week. Still, Republican Senators are careful to start and finish every sentence with an “If it’s true.” Try it. It’s hard to do.

Alabama Republican leaders seem less likely to abandon Moore. They are sure that Moore will still win the election, although his margin of victory is likely to suffer a tad.

Said Republican Party Spokesperson, Monu Ment, “Roy fought the good fight to keep a monument of the Ten Commandments, that he commissioned, from being removed from the Alabama Judicial Building. “McLuhan said,’the medium is the message,’” he noted. “And here is Alabama, and across the South, we’d like to modify that to “the monument is the message.”

“With that in mind, we are pleased to announce a new movement—one, that will sweep patriotic South.”

“MONUMENTS MATTER.”
