Illustrating Absurdity

Sometimes headlines, like sound bites, can be particularly illustrative of the absurd.  Here a few from my morning reading:

From the Wall Street Journal:

"The GOP's Racial Challenge" Republicans can't win in the future without more nonwhite votes.--Zoltan Hajnal.

So the elections of Marco Rubio, Allen West, Tim Scott, Nikki Haley, Brian Sandoval, and Susana Martinez were a reflection of a whites-only voting bloc?  Can someone place some coffee under Zoltan's nose to wake him up?!  Manny Lopez of the Detroit News paints a more accurate portrait. New faces of hope for GOP.

From the New Jersey Star Ledger: "Pelosi's plummeting popularity is a burden to Democrats".  When was she ever popular?  The Botox Hammer has always been egregious.  Except now, she doesn't have a majority running interference for her--they all got booted--thanks, in no small part to her leadership.  Bye, bye, Nancy.  Don't let the doorknob hit you on the way out.
