CONGRESSIONAL CANDIDATE FORCED TO EXPLAIN CONTROVERSIAL 1971 "FUCK EVERYTHING" REMARK
LITTLE ROCK, AR-U.S. Rep. Vic Snyder (D-AR) was forced to defend himself Monday against Republican opponent Marvin Parks' claim that witnesses heard Snyder say "Fuck everything" in 1971. "At least four people attest that they saw an inebriated 24-year-old Vic Snyder tell a group of fellow medical-school students, 'I'm so sick of dealing... Fuck everything,'" Snyder said. "Everything? Did Snyder mean 'fuck' middle-class families who need tax relief? Did he mean 'fuck' the nation's elderly? Does Snyder say 'fuck' the American flag?" A spokesman for Snyder said the remark made perfect sense when put in the context of finals week.

Yeah, I saw that the day the new issue hit the web. It's been printed and proudly displayed in my office for two days! It's great how many times AR makes an appearance in the Onion.

Unfortunately the story I posted wasn't satire.
