Republicans ‘Fun With Guns’ Shoot Top Two-Dimensional Democrats
College Republicans “Fun With Guns” Shoot Top Two-Dimensional Democrats
Republicans on Tuesday distanced themselves from campaign activities that encourage college students shoot cardboard cutouts of leading Democrats with a BB gun or paintball gun. The Republican National Committee said it had no connection with Morgan Wilkins, the woman accused of organizing the offbeat campaign activities at the University of Michigan; although the RNC admitted that there is more connection than Iraq and 9/11. Paul Gourley, chair of the College Republican National Committee, said Wilkins is an independent contractor hired to recruit students to the GOP, but he said the reported activities were not authorized. Gourley said, “We don’t authorize activities We just contract with Republican operatives and give them money. Maintaining plausible deniability is at the core of our contractual relationships. We’re not stupid!”
Democrats objected to the “Fun with Guns” event in strenuously luke-warm terms, “It’s not that we dare oppose the gun lobby during an election season, nor are we opposed to gun owners having fun. We need the gun vote to out-Republican the Republicans, which by the way is getting harder every day! We may not be able to come up with a coherent opposition to the war and violence in Iraq, or the daily gun violence in the streets of America, but we will say that shooting cardboard cutouts is just plain wrong. We refuse to stand silent while others take aim at two-dimensional Democratic favorites such as Sens. Hillary Clinton and John Kerry with a BB gun or paintball gun.
One observer adroitly noted, “Wouldn’t it make better sense to run over middle-of-the-road Democrats than to shoot them?”

Top Pun’s Funny News may not be completely factual, but it has a frighteningly close resemblance to the truth. Any reference to president George W. Bush does not imply that he is an actual president.
