Head-slamming-on-wall stupid

Via DailyKos:

We all know The Onion; billing itself as 'America's finest news source', and featuring regular clearly satirical, that-could-never-happen stories such as "Drunk Dick Cheney shoots man in face" "George Bush, pet pig have relationship crisis" and other stuff clearly meant to be an amusing send-up on the real world.

The problem with satire, however, is that some people are stupid. A disturbing number of these people have in turn populated the right-wing blogosphere, where they cast wider the nets of their dumb-ass-ness. As in this example, in which someone apparently did not understand that what he was reading was perhaps to be taken with a grain of salt.

Here are some quotes from a pro-abortion person, Miss Caroline Weber, who wrote an article at The Onion online magazine.

The Onion Article

When referring to the killing of her child she said:

"I am totally psyched for this abortion!"

"Those pro-life activists made it pretty clear that, unlike me, they actually think abortion is bad and to be avoided. Are they nuts? Abortion is the best!"

"It wasn't until now that I was lucky enough to be pregnant with a child I had no means to support."

"I just know it's going to be the best non-anesthetized invasive uterine surgery ever!"

Who does Miss Weber blame her abortion on? The pro-life movement.

"The funny thing is, I actually have the pro-life movement to thank for this opportunity."

It's our fault? She says:

"If my HMO wouldn't have bowed to their pressure not to cover oral contraceptives, I never would've gotten pregnant in the first place."

Sorry ma'am, if you hadn't had sex you wouldn't have gotten pregnant, it's not the HMO's fault for not supporting your promiscuity while not married.

Does it show at all that the right wing also believes in creationism, "tax cuts and expenditure hikes don't cause deficits", "the weapons of mass destruction are in Syria" and all that? Is there maybe a linkage here?
