Today we learned that the big Republican/Rand Paul scoop on Chuck Hagel possibly being friends with some organization called "Friends of Hamas" turned out to be based on one guy's sarcastic quip that stupid people took seriously. The notable handicap of the group not actually existing has not, however, diminished the certainty of the Breitbart "reporters" as to how Hagel is probably secret BFFs with them, which is a damn impressive thing all the way around.
So anyway, here's some people laughing at them. Feel free to join in.
