"I'll buy almost anything as long if it's shiny and made by Apple."
This is pretty subtle satire. For the Onion, anyway.

Bush Says He Still Believes Iraq War Was The Fun Thing To Do
I've said this before, but the Onion quietly produces the most consistent, and consistently funny, satire out there. Their humor can get pretty dark:
"I urge those who have grown tired of this war to lighten up and live a little," Rice said on CBS Evening News, adding that Bush had furthered his commitment to having a rip-roaring time in Iraq with a recent troop surge. "What detractors of this war don't understand is that when it comes to fighting terrorism, there's no harm in letting loose and painting the town red."
The president also stated that he would not succumb to those who had pressured him to set a date for withdrawal, insisting that U.S. troops would remain in the region for as long as his administration was enjoying itself.
The whole article is here.

State of the Union
"Bush also took time from his hectic schedule of staring blankly into the gaping maw of absolute dissolution to reflect on the country's past and look forward to its 281-day future."
The Onion has quietly become the best source of day-to-day political satire around (the Jon Stewart/Steven Colbert one-two punch is a close second). This is particularly grim. Funny, though.
