He is seen biting a rattlesnake in half and chugging its blood and venom.<\/p>\n<p>Obama then yells: \u201cWelcome to Barack-Town! Population: My Foot In Your Ass.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Romney wins the coin toss, which means he gets first chance to fake wash a bunch of pots to show his fake support for the poor.<\/p>\n<p>Romney: \u201cI want you to get a job! But China ate them all.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Romney: \u201cI\u2019m going to make sure you can get hired to make iPhones in a Shanghai sweatshop.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Romney: \u201cMy plan to put people back to work is to undo the Republican dick-jam clogging up Congress\u2019 pipes like an old tampon!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Obama: \u201cI got a five-point plan, too. Five fingers form a fist and punch Mittens in his crotch-wallet. BOOM.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Man in audience asks: \u201cWhy are you a Muslim Kenyan Martian Socialist Gay Married Christmas-Hater?\u201d Is unmasked as Donald Trump.<\/p>\n<p>Romney just answers the next question by licking his fingers and smoothing his eyebrows, then chuckling.<\/p>\n<p>Romney holds up a golf ball: \u201cThis is clean coal!\u201d Then he sets it on fire and warms his hands by it.<\/p>\n<p>Obama: \u201cTruth is, Governor Romney is a lying-faced liar that lies, and his pants are on fire. And full of poop.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Asked about renewable energy, Romney just squeezes his hair, drinks it, spits it into a Zippo flame and BOOSH.<\/p>\n<p>Now they\u2019re just hitting each other with their microphones. WHUMP BOONG FWUMP FFFMMM BUMP<\/p>\n<p>Obama starts explaining economic theory. Romney makes fart noises and monkey sounds in the background.<\/p>\n<p>Question from audience: \u201cGovernor, how do you plan to pay for all your tax cuts?\u201d Romney: \u201cChinamen. I mean, Keebler elves.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Romney is now holding the moderator\u2019s head in a toilet bowl he appears to have brought from home.<\/p>\n<p>Romney: \u201cI want to help those middle class families that earn more than a frabjillion dollars per year.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Upon hearing his name, Bill Clinton rides in on a Kodiak bear wearing a gladiator costume. Bronzed and oiled.<\/p>\n<p>Romney: \u201cI am going to force the wealthy to pay more tax \u2013 HAHAHA heehee I can\u2019t do it sorry! I josh! I josh!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Obama: \u201cRomney\u2019s plan will cost us five trillion dollars.\u201d Romney: \u201cI make that much in a week!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While Obama is speaking, Romney is wandering around the audience selling snake oil and bad mortgages.<\/p>\n<p>The moderator just pulled out a Taser.<\/p>\n<p>Outside the debate, Big Bird just doused himself in gas and set his golden feathers ablaze.<\/p>\n<p>Romney: \u201cI love affirmative action. That\u2019s a Republican thing, right? It\u2019s not? I hate affirmative action.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Romney: \u201cI love women. I smack their asses when they do a good job. I give them kisses &amp; candies. They prefer that to raises.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Romney: \u201cI think abortions are delicious. Wait, what are we talking about?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Romney: \u201cI GET NEXT ANSWER WAIT SHUT UP ME NOW NEXT FIRST I SAY THINGS NOW STOMPY STOMPY BOO BOO.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Romney: \u201cI will trade our women to China and that will balance our budget.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The moderator is loading a handgun. For herself? Remains unclear.<\/p>\n<p>Obama: \u201cI promise to hunt and kill Honey Boo Boo. And film it. Seal Team Six stands ready.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Obama: \u201cHere is Osama bin Laden\u2019s head. Let us now play kickball with it and end this charade.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Obama firmly strokes his turgid erection. Bill Clinton and he lock eyes, and share a wink.<\/p>\n<p>Romney: \u201cObama only did 92% of the things he said he\u2019d do. Zing! Gotcha, nerd! Go back to Kenya!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Woman asks about immigration. Romney explains that they will serve in an annual \u201cHunger Games\u201d event.<\/p>\n<p>Romney: \u201cImmigrants can bow out of the Hunger Games provided they agree to serve as building materials.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Romney explains that his strategy is \u201cto say whatever works to make you like me. When that fails, I will release angry bees.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Romney: \u201cI sucked four years ago. Hell, I was high on goofballs during the GOP primaries. You shouldn\u2019t quote me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Obama: \u201cIn my next four years I will enact legislation to punish those who interrupt during debates. Seal Team Six is ready.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Obama gets mad, shoots lasers out of his eyes. Buzzsaw blades from his mouth.<\/p>\n<p>Romney just had a terrorist attack in his pants.<\/p>\n<p>Obama: \u201cI want to keep guns out of the hands of orangutans, clowns, postal workers, children, grandchildren, and Republicans.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Romney: \u201cI think children should be raised by guns. Straight guns. Not gay guns. Because, ew.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Weird. Romney has a dead dog strapped to the top of his podium.<\/p>\n<p>The moderator is unlocking a tiger cage.<\/p>\n<p>They pan over the audience. Turns out, undecided voters are basically a pack of unwashed hobos. One guy is sniffing his hands.<\/p>\n<p>Romney: \u201cThe key to getting tough on China is enacting legislation to make sure we get crispy, spicy General Tso\u2019s chicken.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Romney: \u201cI plan on solving immigration by sending Obamacare to China and then shooting Libya with guns and tax cuts.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The undecided voter audience is now eating one another. I suspect bath salts. Or some kind of Walking Dead voodoo.<\/p>\n<p>Romney: \u201cChina hacked my BIOS and made me say all kinds of crazy things during the primaries.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Last question of the night: \u201cDo you like anal?\u201d Where do they get these people?<\/p>\n<p>Obama and audience member named Barry form a detective team, Barry and Barry. This fall, on ABC.<\/p>\n<p>Real debate: these two dudes seriously do not like one another. I really thought they were gonna start kickboxing or some shit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Image courtesy of&#8230; uhh? The Internet?)
