2017 – The Year in Review (Part One)
2017 is dead and gone, and we’re here today to give it our traditional autopsy. Make sure you’re wearing your surgical mask, gloves and smock – this isn’t going to be pretty.
January –
President-elect Trump prepares to take office while Democrats, Washington elites, and the media keep hoping that they’re just having a really bad LSD trip. As reality set in, Barack “I Loathe America” Obama deigned to give Trump some helpful advice…
After repeatedly saying that our entire system of democracy was undermined by the theft of secrets which ended up on Wikileaks, Obama commuted the 35-year espionage sentence of Private Bradley Manning (now “Chelsea Manning” through the politically popular miracle of gender reassignment and garden shears) for the theft of secrets which ended up on Wikileaks.
Which was yet another reason we weren’t sorry when Inauguration Day arrived…
Trump’s inauguration was glorious on many levels – not the least of which was Barry finally leaving the White House, and the deliciously sweet knowledge that it was the worst day of Hillary Clinton’s life. The occasion was marred only slightly by the new President’s insistence that his inauguration was attended by “75 billion people, many of whom came from distant galaxies to be here.”
But in the midst of all the celebrations and renewed hope for America, tragedy unexpectedly struck on January 26, when the last Hope n’ Change cartoon was posted and Stilton left the building under a tattered, 8-year old “Mission Accomplished” banner.
The nation mourns until…
February –
Surprise! After going through severe withdrawal pains we launched “Stilton’s Place,” which was exactly the same as Hope n’ Change, including the same familiar faces…
Funny, we thought your generation knew ALL the four letter words… |
Frankly, we had to come back. Per the first editorial on the new site: “Donald Trump is Presidenting like he has a roman candle shooting out of his rear end, which is sometimes good, sometimes bad, and always (gulp) exciting. Meanwhile, those on the Left have upped their game from insane to criminally insane, having conniption fits over the slightest of upsets and calling for the blood of conservatives to flow in the streets.”
This has been a public cervix announcement. |
After spending 8 years watching Obama put his shoes on the executive desk, Leftists suddenly decided that “knees off the furniture” was critically important in the Oval Office.
“Fingers” Franken in happier times. |
Not only was there no evidence of Trump’s campaign “colluding” with Russia, but the whole premise never made sense. Why would Putin want a wildcard like Donald Trump in office instead of the blackmail-ripe woman who had already sold Putin 20% of our uranium reserves in return for a quick influx of cash?
Hey Bill, is that a missile in your pocket or are you glad to see me? |
North Korea’s roly-poly but unloveable leader Kim Jong-un started an exciting new hobby of testing missiles, setting off nuclear detonations, and swearing to destroy the United States in colorfully insane declarations. Trump countered with increasingly brutal tweets, including one that said Kim’s late father “smelled of elderberries.”
Little mentioned in all this was the fact that during Bill Clinton’s administration, the president and his wife made a special allowance (in return for a buttload of campaign cash) for an American company to sell missile guidance technology to China, which in turn sold it to North Korea.
As icing on the (yellow)cake, the Bill & Hillary administration also gave North Korea nuclear reactors. What could possibly go wrong?
Yes, Colbert really said that. And yes, his ear is really hideously deformed. |
On the CBS “Late Show,” Stephen Colbert delivered an extended, gutter-language attack on President Trump. This would become the new norm for news shows, entertainment shows, and any gathering of two or more liberals.
And President Trump was big enough to shrug it off, apparently believing not only that “words can never hurt me” but “if they do hurt, I’m going to kick someone’s ass.”
The last known picture of Kathy Griffin when she had a career. |
Alleged “comedian” Kathy Griffin (best known for being an angry, unfunny, and annoying presence who has never even accidentally made an audience laugh) held up Donald Trump’s bloody, severed head under the belief that Americans find both assassination and ISIS to be hilariously funny.
Amazingly, she got so much negative feedback (even from the Left) that her national tour was cancelled and she was fired from her longterm gig of co-hosting New Year’s Eve coverage on a major network.
As far as we know, the only work she can now find involves going to ISIS training camp to entertain the troops, like some sort of Bizarro-world America-hating Bob Hope from Hell.
He’s been down there since Inauguration Day. |
Donald Trump took to the Rose Garden to announce his unwavering support for the end of the world. At least, that’s how Leftists described Trump’s decision to pull out of the Paris Climate Accord because the terms were unfairly stacked against America and Americans.
Trump actually announced that he would honor withdrawal terms negotiated by Obama, meaning it would take up to 4 years to actually leave the accord…with the final decision left to voters in the next Presidential election. Still, he would subsequently be blamed for every hurricane, wild fire, and cow fart which defiled Mother Earth.
Of course, the Left knew exactly what needed to be done…
We’re not sure if this production is “Hamlet” or “As You Like It.” |
New York’s well-funded (including with tax money) “Shakespeare in the Park” company staged a modern day retelling of Julius Caesar in which the title character is depicted as Donald Trump – causing liberal glee when he’s graphically and bloodily assassinated onstage by knife-wielding maniacs costumed as Washington insiders.
What a great family outing, huh? And how better to introduce kids to Shakespeare than by making it “fun” with the repeated stabbing of an American President?!
Not that the real Trump was incapable of the occasional self-inflicted wound…
