Why was the "FChan / T - It's full of Tubes!  Twistings Tubes!"
 removed?  (or did the software just eat that thread?)

The image of the dear Senator is a reduced version of a publically distributed image of a public offical used for satirical purposes.
As is the quote.  Definitely fair use and certainly not DNP.

you should double check fair use.

a very good article on this is found at http://www.publaw.com/work.html

refer to the paragraph that starts: Section 107 of the Copyright Act, entitled, "Limitations on Exclusive Rights: Fair Use,"

It goes on to say: "The copyright law contemplates that fair use of a copyrighted work without permission shall be for purposes such as (1) criticism and comment, (2) parody and satire, (3) scholarship and research, (4) news reporting and (5) teaching, and that such fair use will not result in the infringement of a copyrighted work."

Items (1) and (2) are both met.

1. We don't allow board jokes
2. We didn't like it, anyway
