Use this thread to post humor regarding the election. Here's my lame attempts:

In Florida there's still some controversy. The same people who voted for Buchanan 4 years ago, again voted for him even though he wasn't on the ballot this time.

In Oklahoma a chipmunk made the power go out in some areas where voters had to vote in the dark. It hasn't been confirmed yet, but Al Jazeera has obtained a video purporting to be of the Chipmunk (sporting a turban) in which he/she claims that due to Acorn shortages, he/she would make Okies at the polls feel the same "darkness" that he/she feels having to live in the hollow of a tree.

Etc. Etc.

Well, I would make the old joke, "Due to unprecedented levels of voter turnout, it's anticipated that polling places will be filled beyond capacity. Therefore Republicans should show up on Tuesday, November 2nd, and Democrats are encouraged to show up Wednesday, November 3rd." But it's kind of too late for that one, so I won't bother.

"Dude! Where's my vote!?"

Droves of College Students felt disenfranchised Tuesday at various universities. When they got to the point to punch the ballot, they found that Michael Moore was missing as a candidate.

"That is teh suxors!" replied one student.

"Why did he come and campaign at my school if he wasn't even on the ballot!" complained another.

"Um...will I still get my free underwear? I'm not wearing any and it's cold out here" one Dude said.

"I think it's all a big Republican Conspiracy to keep Michael Moore off the ballot!" screamed another.

Michael Moore couldn't be reached for comment, he was just waking up out of a long "dream"....or was it?

You do realise you are largely responsible for this, right?

This is so not true. While I don't thnk Chad has done anything to lower the vitriol level today, he's by no means "largely responsible" for it.

Har har? Is it just me, or are all of these jokes partisan, and somewhat vitriolic themselves?

I hope not. I was just referring to the Michael Moore "bribery" vote thing, which was stupid (on the part of the republicans I might add).

Sorry if it came out as vitrol, I didn't mean it.

On a lighter side:

Bush is comming out with a new book:

"Bushisms: My Third...er Second Perm"

I hadn't heard about that. I assumed it was making fun of dumb college students, of which, admittedly, there are many. [Smile]

What about bribery, now?

I find this hilarious, but be warned. It's vitriolic. Don't complain if you go there and are offended.

Ralph Nader was reported to have found a new home on TV. He is going to be the host of the next season of "The Big Loser".

His idea is to take the show "Backwards into the future".

(President Bush is expected to sue Nader regarding his attempted Hijacking usage of Bushisms)

Heaven knows why Bush would want a perm. His hair looks perfectly presidential right now.

Nice to see he's starting with the right foot in his mouth. [Big Grin]

Isn't vitriol one of those Impotence medicines I keep seeing ads for?
