For someone who believes in personal responsibility you spend a lot of time blaming government

Andy Borowitz is onto something

Here's the start of his on-target piece; see the rest at the New Yorker.
Republicans Accuse Obama of Using Position as President to Lead Country 
Responding to reports that President Obama is considering signing as many as nineteen executive orders on gun control, Republicans in Congress unleashed a blistering attack on him today, accusing Mr. Obama of “cynically and systematically using his position as President to lead the country.” 
Spearheading the offensive was Rep. Steve Stockman (R-Texas), who charged the President with the “wanton exploitation of powers that are legally granted to him under the U.S. Constitution.”

Calling him the “Law Professor-in-Chief,” Rep. Stockman accused Mr. Obama of “manipulating a little-known section of the Constitution,” Article II, which outlines the power of the President.

"Hey, hey, LBJ, how many jokes did you tell today?"

This joke was a favorite of President Lyndon B. Johnson's:
An elderly man needed a heart transplant, and his doctor told him there were three choices available. There was an 18-year-old athlete, a 22-year-old dancer, and a 75-year-old banker. 
The patient asked about the politics of the banker and was told he was a Republican.
Upon getting this information, he chose the banker's heart. 
The transplant was successful, and afterwards, people asked the elderly man why he had bypassed the hearts of younger men.  
To which he replied, "I wanted a heart I knew had never been used."

Groucho Marx explains the GOP platform


I don't know what they have to say,
It makes no difference anyway,
Whatever it is, I'm against it.
No matter what it is or who commenced it,
I'm against it.

Your proposition may be good,
But let's have one thing understood,
Whatever it is, I'm against it.
And even when you've changed it or condensed it,
I'm against it.

I'm opposed to it,
On general principle, I'm opposed to it.

[chorus] He's opposed to it.
In fact, indeed, that he's opposed to it!

For months before my son was born,
I used to yell from night to morn,
Whatever it is, I'm against it.
And I've kept yelling since I first commenced it,
I'm against it!
