my favorite thing about the onion is that an article's headline is literally the entire joke and then the rest of the content related to that headline isn't funny at all.

Bush swore to do "everything in [his] power" to undo the damage wrought by Clinton's two terms in office, including selling off the national parks to developers, going into massive debt to develop expensive and impractical weapons technologies, and passing sweeping budget cuts that drive the mentally ill out of hospitals and onto the street.

During the 40-minute speech, Bush also promised to bring an end to the severe war drought that plagued the nation under Clinton, assuring citizens that the U.S. will engage in at least one Gulf War-level armed conflict in the next four years.

I will admit this is true 75% of the time. I prefer their shorter articles otherwise it's just 300 words of the same joke used in the title being repeated.
