This was strange reading, until I noticed the footnotes. In today's climate and our attention to detail, you probably should assume that many readers will not understand the satire and take your words literally, ignoring the footnotes.

I'd rather not look at how they treated John McCain, as I just ate lunch and would hate to upchuck all over my work computer's keyboard.
