Sounds excellent. Good work.

Got to hand this one to Obama. He's finally made it "cool" to buy a car for an old rich white guy.

Biden wants a convertible trans am

C/D: Sadly, we must ask about the Onion story. While shirtless, have you ever washed a 1981 Pontiac Trans Am in your driveway?

JB: [Laughing] You think I'd drive a Trans Am? I have been in my bathing suit in my driveway and not only washed my Goodwood-green 1967 Corvette but also simonized it. At least the Onion should have had me washing a Trans Am convertible. I love convertibles.

Who's in control of the sites again?

We need some links and some thumbnails for these orgs on the sites.

Don't get carried away with the concept and spam the universe if the product isn't ready for primetime. The charities should be highlighted to maximize interest (for those who aren't soley about the lulz).

I'd rehost the images to prevent cross linking issues, two of those aren't from the organization websites....

cant we find one cheaper than $25k?

VoodooTaco: extroverted_suicide: I can't read through 586 comments right now, but I am concerned that there are probably ethics regulations that would prevent him from being able to accept the car. If this proves incorrect, I am totally down for 5 bux.

Appreciated, but please recall that it's ultimately for charity. Lulz are a freebie.

Well, I still didn't have time to read it all, but I did make a few moments to skim and did catch the decision that either the car or the money will ultimately go to charity. So now I am definitely in.

While he can't accept it, I think he would reach legendary status and nab a lot of votes if he showed up, spent a few minutes hand washing it, in jorts of course, laughed it off and agreed that it should be auctioned off as the site suggests.

Duke Phillips' Singing Bears: Why all the anger? It's a fun idea. If you like Joe, there's no reason not to have some fun. If it bothers you so much, start your own donation page to buy Romney a f*cking personality or something.

How about a box of dildos?

RichieLaw: Coronach: Just quit my job, but I think this is well worth going hungry for.

No. Its not. Buy yourself some food. I'll chip in $5 for you.

No kidding!

As for your link, I would still put in some verbiage to the effect that "This shows that Biden has a sense of humor, and anyone that can laugh at themselves occasionally is what we need more in politics..." or something liek that...

maybe if everyone got all giddy and stupid about Big Bird too you all could donate to your local PBS station to save Sesame Street...instead of buying a Trans AM for a millionaire.

if ever there were a time for the double facepalm this would be it, instead

No,no. Much appreciated but I can 'lil brudder this. Awesome Idea in the spirit of Fark.

/I've budgeted through spring

Ricardo Klement: extroverted_suicide: RichieLaw: I need a name for Joe Biden's trans am.

Sally

/in honor of Sally Fields in Smokey & the Bandit
//also, Sally just sounds like something you'd call a Trans Am

Michele has more comedy potential.

I love it.

Love it! Nice job.

I just gave $10. Because I like Joe and because this is a completely awesome idea.

I gave my ten bucks!

Someone with the Twitters should send this to media personalities like Daniel Tosh or Bill Maher that might find this as hilarious as we do and say something about it on their show.

Nezorf: Verdelak: While he can't accept it, I think he would reach legendary status and nab a lot of votes if he showed up, spent a few minutes hand washing it, in jorts of course, laughed it off and agreed that it should be auctioned off as the site suggests.

I think it would increase the price if it became the "Trans Am that biden signed and posed with"

If it generates press and noise, and he actually washes the sumb*tch on the whitehouse lawn, I guarantee somebody will buy it for a lot more than 25K.

Put me down for some fuzzy dice.

Also, the car better have a fire chicken on the hood.

This is amazing. I too vote for calling it "The Bird", and painting it on the left rear quarter.

Added links to the indiegogo site.

Does this have a Facebook page yet? It needs one.

Also, link Kal Penn. He's a great star, advocate, and supporter. He could give this momentum.

Welp, I just popped five bucks in this bad mutha. Looks like I'm eating dogfood again tonight.

zedster: doyner: Bontesla: Mrs.Sharpier: USA Prime Credit Peggy: If the Onion gets wind, they'll want to help. No doubt.

I've tweeted them and their politics twitter account the links, more would help spread the word.

I'd also tweet Stephen Colbert.

And HuffPo...

need a good hashtag, how about #VPbiatchenTA or #Bidencarwash

#Hilarity4Charity

Hopefully we never see a Presidential Library with his name on it.

But how awesome would a Presidential Library be with a Trans Am in the middle of the entrance?

ice009: This is the car that he needs to get delivered to him. Seems like a perfect match

This might be weird but I actually think that IS the car The Onion used. Look at the 5th shot in the gallery. if it were horizontally flipping that could be the exact picture that The Onion 'shopped

Did you read it?

"Now, if for some reason this awesome gift is too awesome and cannot be given to Vice President Biden, the internet will still purchase the car and auction it off.
All proceeds will be distributed to the Biden Breast Health Initiative, Doctors Without Borders, the Wounded Warrior Project and GLAAD.
Regardless if it is to Joe Biden or to charity, maybe Joe Biden will wash it on the White House lawn"

Just ignore the haters. They ain't worth a sh*t.

Thanks, we'll see what we can do - just grabbed the mp3. Damn, 3:09? Ok, will take awhile.

Oh man, it's about to break the 1K mark...that's when shiat gets serious.

Kate Gosselin's Pap Smear: You vaghole. I have a campaign to help starving vets, and you would rather help a freaking kid who should just be put down? Have you no compassion? These vets could perhaps became adults who did sow peace and stability, or fought a puppy that had cancer, something your kid would never be able to accomplish.

Nah. Just haters. There's a lot of haters out here today. Haters. Haters whose mama's have underwear wit' dickholes in them.

You're right. Haters gonna hate, no matter what. They should really get off the internet.

Cyclometh: coeyagi, you were the one who wanted the audio, right? If not you, the person who it was needs to contact me so I can get you a high-quality WAV version of it.

It was me. The mp3 sounds ok, we'll see what we can do. It will take awhile to create some P-shopped stills and then compile. It will at least be a template for building the video.
