Found a site that might give The Onion a run on some of its political humor:

Greenspan, Kevorkian to Save Social Security; "Greatest Generation" Urged to "Make One More Sacrifice"

quote:
WASHINGTON – Alan Greenspan stunned luncheon participants at the Green Gables Society of Washington, D.C. by proposing a radical new cure for the fever-ridden Social Security Administration, calling on all adults past the age of 63 to “do us all a favor and die, right now.”

A jarring silence filled the room as Greenspan proceeded to outline the so-called “Kevorkian Solution”, in which the so-called “Greatest Generation” would receive “considerable incentive to surrender the ghost” – all in the name of a frightened, aging Baby Boomer generation.

This is my kind of political analysis. [Big Grin]
