Town Hall Organizers Put Out National Casting Call for Angry Assholes


Encouraged by their ability to disrupt a week's worth of town hall
meetings on health care, Republican organizers have secured the services
of a Hollywood casting director to conduct a nationwide talent search
for angry assholes.

Carol Foyler, who has stocked numerous Hollywood films with angry mobs
for crowd scenes, says that she is looking for people who are "willing
to shout and scream and get red in the face with no provocation."

Saying that her current assignment was a "challenging" one, Ms. Foyler
said finding "angry, out-of-control assholes" is harder than it looks:
"You really have to tip your hat to Fox for finding Glenn Beck."

One possible source of assholes, Republican organizers said, is the
burgeoning movement of so-called "Birthers," who today openly questioned
the existence of President Barack Obama.

"We need proof that Barack Obama exists," said Birther leader Orly
Taitz. "In my mind he's about as real as a unicorn."

While most Americans still believe that President Obama exists, a new
poll shows that most self-described Birthers agree with the statement,
"Barack Obama is not a real person and is probably just a hologram or
something."
