From “America’s Finest New Source,” The Onion:
Authorization for the clinic walls reportedly sailed through the state legislature and was quickly signed by Gov. Bryant, despite failed amendments from a small group of Democrats that would have reduced the wall’s height and allowed doctors to use assistive devices such
as ladders or grappling hooks. According to sources, only the planting of thick, thorny shrubbery along the base of both sides of the wall was removed from the final version of the legislation.
Recall the non-satirical political discourse surrounding the Mexican border, and this piece suddenly seems rather less funny.
