I've made a political satire blog, is it funny?
Here's the link: http://dylanholly.typepad.com/

I started it several hours ago and so far I've got two posts up. This is pretty much my first attempt at political satire.

Basically the site features a couple new, fake, and hopefully funny political stories every day. I need some feedback though, so honestly, are the first two stories funny or atleast mildly entertaining?

I'm not looking for hits, just honest criticism. Thanks.

3. So far so very good
I'm nit-picking here but,
I think the calendar idea is as good as anything on the Onion.
But I think the outsourcing item, while also a very funny concepet, could use a re-write. Bush should "think" something different than it is a good idea. I'm only bantering concepts here, but how about something like: Bush thinks it's a good idea as long as he still gets to use Air Force One. Or Bush thinks it's a good idea because Karl Rove has told him it will show the American people he is serious about bringing modern corporate efficienalites to government.
Again I don't mean to be negative. I think you're off to a very good start.
