From the same reputable source:

WASHINGTON—Indicating a major shift in public opinion from just a generation ago, a poll conducted by Gallup this week found that 74 percent of Americans would be comfortable blaming a female president for the problems facing the nation. "According to our latest survey, nearly three quarters of Americans now say they'd be willing to saddle a female president with blame for everything from a stagnant economy to interminable wars in the Middle East, up from barely half of respondents a decade earlier," said lead researcher Jennifer Cervantes, emphasizing that while nine of every 10 voters under the age of 40 said they could see themselves condemning a woman president on nearly any issue, older voters—a demographic typically more opposed to vilifying a female commander-in-chief and angrily attributing America's declining global influence and ballooning debt to her incompetence—were now becoming increasingly receptive to the possibility. "The change has been striking; for the first time in this nation's history, we're entering an election year in which a significant majority of voters say they can see themselves denouncing everything a female president does and accusing her of being the single worst thing that has ever happened to the country." In a further sign of Americans' evolving views, the study also found that 95 percent of Americans now believe they'll bitterly abhor a female president in their lifetime

The sad thing is that in all the humor, they're sometimes probably right!

Search youtube for "Some bullsh!t happening somewhere", it's one of the onion's best!.. next best is "Sony introduces new POS".. both are so true and hilarious

I don't know where they come up with the brain power to think these things up.. some of them get a little repetitive, but there's also lots of great ones
