The Ticket
Timely new art from Hugh:

Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk!
Seriously, though, you shouldn't tarnish the legacy of the Three Stooges by associating them with Obama in any way. That's not right.

I think McCain should pick Michael Steele as his running mate.

I said this in a previous post: this was a great choice by Obama: a political "insider" with a propensity for putting his foot deep in his mouth, who in no way brings in new votes and TOTALLY pisses off the women who feel Hill got thrown under the bus. The only better choice would have been David Duke to "bring balance to the ticket". But Slow Joe Biden will do just fine.
Sarah Palin for McCain's VEEP. He'll sweep the female vote so hard, there won't be any bristles left on the broom.

Dear Lord! I see from Van's timely new art (from Hugh), and on Michelle Malkin's website that the Messiah has actually chosen Joe Biden for his running-mate? Can't believe it! As a caller to Rush's show (from Delaware) noted, these two egos will never be able to fit inside the White House; Smarmy Joe may not actually reside therein, but he will damn sure be one of the Doh!bama puppet-masters calling the shots for the untrained, inexperienced incompetent boob that is Doh!bama, along with Reid and Pelosi, Kennedy, Durbin and others, if (God forbid!) the Annointed One actually does become POTUS.
After denying the rumor that he was to be the Chosen One's chosen one yesterday (what used to be called a "lie"), Jo-Joe's head must have come near to exploding when the announcement was made!

matt: Gov. Palin sounds great to me, or Bobby Jindal (though the folks in Louisiana so desperately need him, it would be a shame to take him away, even though it is "for the greater good").
Pick Lieberman or Ridge, and it's all over, John. Best keep that in mind (unless, of course, you want your bestest friends across the aisle, the ultra-Liberal Marxists ruling the Dhimmicrat Party, and the all-Obama/all-the-time Media who now, suddenly, hate your maverick guts, to run this country? I certainly hope not!).

So I'm watching the Batman movie (1989) and I suddenly realize that Obama is the Joker, ha! Bear with me here.
The Joker rolls down the street in his cool-looking parade float with hip Prince music playing on the speakers, throwing money into the streets. Of course the crowd goes wild as they paw in the air to get their free money. Little do they know that they're being drawn in to their deaths as the Joker then proceeds to gas the entire crowd.
"Hubba hubba hubba money money money who do you trust? I'm giving away free money here and where is Batman? He's at home washing his tights!"
Naturally Batman shows up to save the crowd from the bad guys and still he is perceived as a villain among the elitists; an out of touch guy who bends the rules to protect the people of Gotham City.

Remember when Joker Jack said he wanted his picture on money? When my mom and I saw the scene you related above in the theater, she whispered to me "I bet his face is on that money". Remembering that, I can REALLY see the simularities!

He must have picked Biden because he has a better looking wife than McCain. And he's white. And old enough to have some experience in his back pocket, unlike himself.
I'd love to be a mouse in the Clinton house. Wonder what the banshee is going to do now?

A black man as president scare the shit out of you pussies doesn't it.

On behalf of the Howards, I object to their inclusion in the cartoon.
They were way more intelligent that either of the other two.
Posted by: Larry Sheldon at August 23, 2008 4:18 PM
And no, a black man as President does not worry me in the slightest. Is Thomas running?
A Marxist who can not put a coherent thought together picking a racist plagiarist for a "mate" does scare the shit out of me.
Posted by: Larry Sheldon at August 23, 2008 4:38 PM
Hey Dan-o...I'm not scared, I'm pissed. Socialism, class warfare, wealth re-distribution, America-as-third-world-nation...these things anger me.
As Larry said, Clarence Thomas, Michael Steele, Larry Elder and a whole host of other black conservatives would be fine with me.
Now, how about you? Does the idea of a whole lot of here-to-fore tolerant white people getting fed up with being the ONLY group that can have hate and bigotry hurled at them with no consequences getting anger scare the shit out of YOU?
Posted by: matt at August 23, 2008 5:41 PM
"angry". Sorry...I must be getting scared shitless.
Posted by: matt at August 23, 2008 5:43 PM
Why do idiots like Danny always assume that anyone who is opposed to Obama is automatically a racist whose opposition to Obama is based entirely on race?
My distrust of Obama has nothing to do with the color of his skin, it has to do with simply the facts that he's inexperienced, a fanatical Marxist, in favor of partial birth abortion, and practically every couple weeks reveals Obama's connection to another highly questionable person or group.
Posted by: Adam at August 23, 2008 6:07 PM
Idiots like Danny hide behind the Race Card because they are too uninformed, not mature enough, or both, to have a discussion using facts.
As soon as you corner them beyond their limited grasp of the points being discussed, they either pull the race card, change the subject, attack you, or a combination of all of the aforementioned.
The use of the term idiot is appropriate to describe them.
Just go to the HuffPoo or Koos and see how they attack each other on issues they should all have a solid basic grasp of (left talking points).
Most posts and responses read like a hate monger support group gone bad.

How could anybody be against a "mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy"? (Joe Biden said that. I would not want to be accused of plagiarism.)
Posted by: Larry Sheldon at August 23, 2008 6:34 PM
Michael Steele would be good as would Kay Bailey Hutchinson.
Great news that Biden was picked - only a matter of time before he says something incredibly stupid.

I don't mind answering stupid with crude:
What a stupid schmuck. Shit and role in it, Danny-o. Call me a "pussy" to my face you worthless pissant clueless coward.
Posted by: Jimbo at August 23, 2008 9:00 PM
Forget it, Jimbo. Dan-o chickened out as soon as he found out we were going to nail him with facts instead of what he's used to. He's long gone back to HuffPo land.
Book 'em, Dan-o.

I like the "Clean and Jerk" nickname for the ticket. I forget who first said it, but it fits perfectly.

Obama's father was of Arabian decent and born in Kenya, his mother was white and born in the United States. How does that make him "black"? That's would be like my saying that I'm "black" because my father was a South African Boer. (He wasn't, by the way)
Posted by: KHarn at August 24, 2008 7:48 AM
It was hilarious to see the clowns at MSNBC do their best to diminish Biden's deficiencies. John Harwood claimed that Biden's history of making racially insensitive remarks won't hurt Obambi with middle American voters because they actually agree with them.

Seems to me that Moe, Larry, and Curly are being sullied in this otherwise funny image. Shame!
