The Carnival of Satire (#62)

Welcome to The Carnival of Satire. This week our satirists tackle politics, technology and the gastro-intestinal track. Yep, just another day at The Skwib. We hope you enjoy it.

Mad Kane’s Political Madness has political poetry to start us off: Bellicose Bush.

On a related note, we found this amusing spoof of Bush and Blair’s relationship, on YouTube, and that electronic crack, Sid Meier’s Civilization (Warlord).

Damian G. has fake news from the fecal front: President to request surge of 21,500 restroom attendants in wake of Athens embassy bombing.

Now, this satire from Avant News would be much funnier if Mark hadn’t actually survived amoebic dysentery: Organic Windows Vista Virus Can Target Computers Even When Powered Down.

Keeping with technology for the moment, Guns’n’butter has the top ten features of the new iPhone (the Mac version).

Back to the loo! At Genius Types you’ll find a cogent argument for why a man needs a cave: A Man’s Last Refuge.

Madeleine Begun Kane has a related marital limerick Marriage Catch.

Wise Bread is watching out for our health in Kellog’s Protein Water Can Cure Cancer (Maybe).

Bile, Snark, and Sneer presents Maybe they used a crowbar.

Craig Harper presents Creating a Crap Blog in Ten Easy Steps.

The Scratching Post has a plea: Quick, We Need Your Help!

And to take us out on a note of bad poetry, The Rocketman has a Gollum-esque parody for our delectation: PoEmotIronic.

Thanks to everyone for submitting their satire, and thanks to these fine folks for helping us with webby-stuff: the Blog Carnival for their form; and the listings at the Ubercarnival, and at the Blog Carnival too. Bush cartoon by the talented Lar deSouza.
