Nuke the Punchline: Pope N' Change

Harvey over at IMAO has another straight line of the day up, and so it is time to pick the winners of the last one:

After the Pope's resignation...



#5 blarg: ...A lot of people looked over at Obama with that “anyone else wanna resign while we’re on a roll?” look.

#4 Scott: ...since he’s already “sort of a God,” Obama did a recess appointment for the next pope…

#3 Dohtimes: ...the NFL dropped their copyright lawsuit for the use of XVI.

#2 Iowa Jim: ...Biden started preparing “Pope and Change” posters for his 2016 campaign.

And the best punchline goes to Oppo:

After the Pope's resignation, he tore out the eighteenth book from the Old Testament, shouting “take this Job and shove it!”

Congratulations Oppo!

And the honorable mention for the best movie reference goes to Rodney Dill:

The Cardinals paraded around doing, “pie jesu domine, dona eis requiem” (THWACK)

(1 point for that)

The best punchline for the last Nuking Politics straight line was from CTCompromise:    

To prepare for his State of the Union Address, Obama spoke with the heads of the AFL/CIO, UFCW, & Teamsters to see how they were doing.

Congratulations CTC!
