NICE.



Kunta...Kinte...

[WHA-KRAK]

YOUR NAME IS TOBY!

Did anyone ever doubt that it would come to this? Barack's crypto-black supremacist views were only hidden to those who are willfully blind. Having a white mother was only the first of his subterfuges.

seriously, i think it will be important to maintain an adverserial relationship with congress once he becomes president. the incestuous nature of one party rule can fool you into thinking that just because 52% of the people you work with agree with you, 100% of the country agrees with you.

I will be shocked if only 52% of congress is Democratic when Obama is president.

But you are damn right about one party rule. Despite my shadenfreude at seeing the GOP disintegrate, I am concerned that we will not have a meaningful opposition party (or parties) in place. This is a critical part of any functioning democracy. It is a pity that the GOP has so thoroughly discredited themselves.

Let's hope they can either reform themselves or perhaps enough principled republicans defect to the libertarian party or create a large and powerful independent block.

If everybody in our government hit each other with sticks, I think it would be a change for the better.

haaaa... i was just looking for that. i couldn't remember the name of who to look for...

sigdiamond2000 that pic always makes me laugh.

My, my what a big stick he has.

I have a dim memory from American history class of one Senator beating another with a stick during the mid-19th century.

See, he's the slave master. He really is going to enslave the White race.

quickdraw: My, my what a big stick he has.



oh it's twue! it's twue!

Well, after he takes all of our guns away, sticks will be the only thing we will have left to defend ourselves.

Duh!

Skleenar: Having a white mother was only the first of his subterfuges.

Yes, he planned that one well.

For all of you who have never lived in the South,
there's a difference between a whippin' and a whuppin'.

actually whipping the dolts in congress now and then is a great idea!

So is he going speak softly while carrying that big stick?

/Wonder if the ignorant bastard ever heard of TR.

burndtdan: oh it's twue! it's twue!

thats my ARM baby...

"In light of Senator Obama's new acquisition, I'd like to whole-heartedly offer him my endorsement for President."

TheGreyPiper: So is he going speak softly while carrying that big stick?

Speak softly? Appeaser!

/passing on your slashie
//he sure as hell isn't ignorant
///unlike a shiatload of farkers

Subby, I admit, I guffawed.

TheGreyPiper: So is he going speak softly while carrying that big stick?

/Wonder if the ignorant bastard ever heard of TR.

FAIL.

TheGreyPiper: /Wonder if the ignorant bastard ever heard of TR.

whose the ignorant bastard you're referring to? because the way you phrased it sounds like you are talking about someone with an undergraduate degree in political science from Colombia, as well as well as a Juris Doctorate, graduating magna cum laude, from Harvard.

so yeah. I think he's heard of TR.

TheGreyPiper: /Wonder if the ignorant bastard ever heard of TR.

I really doubt Obama has the time to watch Grey's Anatomy.

Someone needs to modify the picture of obama with nunchucks and put the stick in there instead.

ZAZ: I have a dim memory from American history class of one Senator beating another with a stick during the mid-19th century.

Don't mess with Preston Brooks. This guy will jump you on the Senate floor. That's hardcore.

raanne: it sounds like you are talking about someone with an undergraduate degree in political science from Colombia, as well as well as a Juris Doctorate, graduating magna cum laude, from Harvard.

I came loud at Harvard once, too.

The Carter school of government, eh?

Suppose your worst fears are realized and President Obama strolls into the Oval Office with a veto-proof majority in both houses.

If the Democrats go nuts they will face a mid-term election reckoning in 2010 like they did in 94' and Obama would have a hell of a time in 2012.

Don't fret. These things balance themsleves out.

/Also enjoys the possibility of an impending GOP annihilation in November.

Another uppity negro!

ROFL!!

all that oppression, eh?

Theaetetus, I laughed, I cried a little, my fear of both blacks and jews were justified.

fosborb: TheGreyPiper: /Wonder if the ignorant bastard ever heard of TR.

You owe me a new keyboard.

Theaetetus:

And that's why you're not allowed in the library reading room anymore.

A political Nadir.

Walking down the street every soul I meet wants to know about my daddy's cane. (pops to an MP3)

Brown Sauce: For all of you who have never lived in the South, there's a difference between a whippin' and a whuppin'.

That's what I came in to say. The Southern Rule of Protocol, Section 957.42.3 states that if you are ever given a stick (or baseball bat, or stick-like weapon of any sort) by any person over the age of 80, you must thank the person and promise to "whup someone" with it.

Smacking the stick in the palm of your hand or taking a few pretend swings with it is considered a nice touch, but is not required.

OneBrightMonkey: If the Democrats go nuts they will face a mid-term election reckoning in 2010 like they did in 94' and Obama would have a hell of a time in 2012.

Never underestimate politicians' lack of foresight.

Theaetetus: "In light of Senator Obama's new acquisition, I'd like to whole-heartedly offer him my endorsement for President."

Dude Lieberman's noggin' is HUGE.

Thread over, Flavor of the Month wins handily. Occam's Chainsaw gets an assist for the explanation.



/came for photo, not disappointed at all
//actually wished he had the power to call it

This thread is awesome.

/I love Fark so much...
//still too ashamed to tell my family though

Brown Sauce: For all of you who have never lived in the South,

Because Obama was born and raised in the south?!?

Don't worry, with the slippery slope that Conservatives complain about, you'll soon be able to marry Fark.

I laughed out loud, subby. Nice job.

Hmm... is that before or after the Gay Homosexuals make me fark a turtle?
