Just had to bookmark this one.
From the department of photoshopped bipolar behavior comes this hilarious photograph that accompanies a headline of doom from the leftist cesspool known as the Daily Kos.
It just doesn’t get any better than this from the Kos kids. Thank you for making life entertaining with this epic failure.
Tom Nelson spotted it and wrote in a tweet:

@dailykos puts a photoshopped penguin on the “Ursus Bogus” iceberg, attribution NCAR! https://wattsupwiththat.com/2010/05/12/new-bear-species-discovered-ursus-
