I saw these on Mcsweeneys a week or so ago, my take was that they weren't meant to be takne a literal jokes rather they are a way-too-clever play on the Bush tactic of turning legitimate questions of loyalty, and usually framed with a nasty personal bent. Meta-humor as it were.
I dunno, it wasn't that funny when I thought of them that way, it's even less funny when the potential explanation is typed out.
Mind you the Patriot Act one is legitimately funny.
