“Joe Wilson is Your Pre-Existing Condition” becomes overnight sensation
Literally.
While media outlets loop the snippet of Barack Obama’s speech last night- in which Rep. Joe Wilson (R-SC) hecked the president by loudly shouting “you lie,” -an evil cousin to the site “Barack Obama is Your New Bicycle” has sprung up and is all the rage.
Instead of the benign actions attributed to the POTUS on the “Barack Obama is Your New Bicycle” site (example: Barack Obama made you a mixtape, Barack Obama e-mailed your dad and told him how great you are) “Joe Wilson is Your Pre-Existing Condition” lists a series of inconsiderate and annoying things that Joe Wilson “did,” in the same bare bones, all caps style of its predecessor. From the Huffington Post:
- Joe Wilson used your best scissors to trim his ear hair
- Joe Wilson laid off your dad just before his pension kicked in
- Joe Wilson stole your newspaper
- Joe Wilson yells ‘Free Bird’ at concerts
- Joe Wilson called your sister a skank
- Joe Wilson hit on your mom
- Joe Wilson didn’t refill your Brita pitcher
- Joe Wilson traded the dead batteries in his Walkman for the fresh ones in your TV remote
- Joe Wilson cancelled (sic) your insurance for buying off-brand insoles
Some address the health care crisis and his outburst directly:
- Joe Wilson claims your sick child is faking
- Joe Wilson yells while adults are talking
- Joe Wilson cancelled (sic) your insurance for buying off-brand insoles
My personal favorite?
