John Fleming Unable to Recognize Onion 'Abortionplex' as Satire

Remember the Onion's Aboritonplex story? It was a satire article which far too many people thought was real. Rep. John Fleming (R-LA) is one of them. Not only did John Fleming get wind of the article nearly nine months after it was published, but he also thought it was real.

John Fleming posted a link to the Abortionplex article on his Facebook page, with the comment "More on Planned Parenthood, abortion by the wholesale".

Note to John Fleming (and anyone else who doesn't know better by now): The Onion is a satire site. The stories you read in The Onion are not real. Also, "by the wholesale" is not a real term.

The Planned Parenthood Abortionplex also has a Yelp profile: "Two Floors of Arcade Games, no tokens needed!"
