The end is near for two great species.

The department of the interior just released its newest list of endangered species. Two rarely seen animals have made the newest list "Truth" and "Facts."

Department spokesperson, Pearl Marcus, laid the blame squarely at the feet of talk radio. "These magnificent creatures are about to be taken away from us. It's difficult to ascertain why this catastrophe is happening. They can't be eaten. Everybody knows that the truth is hard to swallow."

Talk show host, Rush Limbaugh, an avid fact hunter himself, in response to Mrs. Marcus's comment. "My friends, this is the way Liberals lie. The truth is that we search for the facts, but they are very difficult to find. It's survival of the fittest, and the fact of life is that truth and facts can't survive in such a world."

The Obama administration is considering the release of a few pairs of wild truths in Yellowstone National Park. There it is believed to have no natural predator. There it is believed that it can coexist with it's cousin, Beauty, that has flourished in the park for many years.
