OK.

Along similar lines, I just pissed off my neighbor, and while watching him throw a fit, I got the whole picture on how the Liberals are responsible for every bad thing that's happened in the last eight years (why that time frame?) including tsunamis and toxic loan products.

I am going to reach total enlightenment any day now, I am learning so much Relevant and Real Truth these days.

Cleveland, Coolidge, Carter, Clinton.

Madison, Monroe, McKinley.

As long as we never have another Bush I'm okay.

If Obama wins, we may have to reconsider some presidential nicknames:

~ Bill (William Jefferson) Clinton
* The First Black President

~ Thomas Jefferson
* The Negro President

There has also never been a President elected who was half-black, a woman, or present at the drafting of the Magna Carta, but one of those things is about to change come November.

the percentage of people whose last names end with M and C and much larger than the percentage of people whose last names end in O. To be expected.

Only two people (Warren Harding and John F. Kennedy) have ever gone directly from the Senate to the White House. This year, all three remaining major candidates are Senators.

He'll have no problem raising funds for the campaign. After all, the Mike is for "money" and the D is for "diamond".

Here is another one. 100% so far have been male. That would be no females. So since there have been no presidents who surname begins with O and no female presidents, that means its a McCain presidency.....?

 
hovsm 2008-05-04 12:21:05 AM  
Also, in the beginning, there has never been a president so it was so weird that Washington was the first since it was just unheard of before. Can we apply the asinine tag to that headline now?

Nope; McCain, if elected, would be the oldest president in history.

So, that excludes all of them.

Somewhere in her castle, Hillary has a magic mirror, and when she used to ask "Mirror Mirror on the wall, who's the fairest one of all?", it used to say "You dear are the fairest one of all, and will soon be Queen". But recently it has been saying something like "You dear are loved, but there is someone in the kingdom named Bonbon Biracial that is loved even more than you are." Lacking a poison apple that can put Bonbon Biracial to sleep for a hundred years .... um I think I am confusing Snow White with Sleeping Beauty, and can't imagine what Hillary will do instead of a poison apple, but I am convinced she has a magic mirror that she has been consulting.

Ever read the original Sleeping Beauty? You'd never recognize it. The biggest difference? She's not awakened by a kiss from the prince, but rather the nudging of her newborn twins. Yep, while she was asleep, the prince, er, well, you know, even though he was already married to another woman!

Technically, Coolidge was not elected to his first term (he became president when Harding died). Although, he can still be considered an elected president, as he won the 1924 election.

/"Van Buren" was counted as a V, but you could add it to the Bs instead, if you desired
//The only vowel that seems to do well is "A"
///We sure have a lot of presidents who got the H into the office!

Yep. It wouldn't surprise me if most Americans with an O name were O'-something, followed by Hispanics (Ortega, Ortiz etc.), then Slavics (Ostrovsky, Obruchev etc.) and Asians (Okada, Okimoto).
