Subject: RE: BS: Tobacco Farmer Holds off US with Tractor
Well, danged! You all can make all the fun you want, but this poor guy is is fir a chilly night down there in D.C. in the middle of the reflecting pool and well, okay, maybe the possum eatin' issue isn't one of my stronger ones, but if I can get this danged garden tractro fire up, strap a flag on it, I'll just take a poster board and a mijic marker and think of somethin' better on the way down. Heck, I won't get there fir a day and a half.
But now really. Think of it. You have three government buildings shut down, you have 50 FBI and CIA agents and a few hundred D.C. cops satndin' 'round the reflecting pool with this *very native * North Carolina tobaccie farmer camped out on his tractor 'cause he's mad at someone about some tobaccie thing that the rest of the world don't have a clue about. Meanwhile, with all these folks camped out watching him and trying to negotiate with him, it's costing the taxpayers about $1M a day. Okay, maybe not that much. But lots! Heck, I think I'll just call up Georgie Porge and tell him that I think the guy is Saddam in disquise and then Georgie Porge will just nuke D.C. and in doing so solve a lot of problems.
Junior's last words "Heck, how was I to know that the White House was in D.C.?"
