I’m not a Kos kid, but this is just too funny to pass up.

A few days ago, an earth-shaking article about a judge’s decision in the case of our president’s birth emerged from the depths of the internets. Never one for fact checking, Orly Taitz jumped all over it claiming this was finally the truth they were looking for. Freepers, and other assorted wingnuts had a huge collective orgasm.

Then one of them actually clicked on the link at the bottom of the article. The result? They were treated to a highly entertaining video of Rick Astley’s hit “Never Gonna Give You Up”. For those of you unfamiliar with internet memes, this is known as being Rickrolled, and by internet standards, is a very old prank.

I guess if you want to believe something bad enough, you’ll grasp at any straw you’re given.
