Sharpton Mocks Limbaugh for Winning Book Award: Must Have Been Voter Fraud

Al Sharpton was absolutely dumbfounded today to learn that Rush Limbaugh is now officially a children’s book award winner, and found it scariest of all that the winners are supposed to be chosen by kids. Sharpton half-mockingly asked, “Could this possibly be voter fraud from some kids on the right?”

Zerlina Maxwell found the results a little odd, remarking that, “absolutely, 100 percent, the kids did not vote for Rush Limbaugh to win best book over Divergent.”

Sharpton suggested every child who voted should be forced to show photo ID for confirmation, while Abby Huntsman said Limbaugh’s book probably sold so well because “he bought half of them himself.”
