I saw on the morning news that McCain has picked Ron Paul as his running mate. I think the race is about to get very interesting.

You didn't see it Jeri? I think this is going to be bad for the Democrats come November.

Further news,

Hillary has dropped out.
Obama has picked HER as a running mate.
and Curling is now the most popular sport in Hell.

Jeezus LIBERTY!!!!!!! McCain and Ron Paul?

What a great idea. It would be damn funny if McCain did that, and it would definitely make for an interesting election.

What would be almost as funny would be if Obama finally beat Hillary for the Democratic ticket, but then Chongo offered her the chance to be VP on his presidential ticket! The Primate Party, that is. ;-) Chongo intends to wage war on all those who are presently waging war on primates. This would result in the USA embarking on military adventures in both Africa and Asia, as well as greatly heightening domestic security measures on the homefront. Most zoos and wildlife enclosures could expect to be shut down summarily or hit with rapid and decisive surgical strikes by elite airborne forces.

It would be one hell of an exciting presidency, and the heat would be off the Middle East for a change as Chongo moved all available forces to the tropical regions where apes and monkeys are presently being subjected to much ethnic cleansing and slavery by the indigenous human population.

I can see Hillary serving quite well in such an administration, because she could bring her longstanding political experience and savvy to bear and assist in making those hard decisions when they had to be made.

I don't think that it is a coincidence that Apes and monkeys illegally hunted for food are call Bush Meat.

There you go!

That's why Chongo decided to run in this election. Something simply had to be done.

You see, I always figured he might be right about some of it...and wrong about some of it.

That's the way it is with most people, I think. I don't know if I've ever met anyone who was always right about everything...though I've met thousands whose standard procedure was to act as if they were! ;-)

Little Hawk, was Chongo born in the US? If he was NOT, please don't conjecture further. We have enough problems.

He was born in Africa, Ebbie. Be assured, however, that the Primate Party is fully capable of fielding a candidate born in the USA if they have to. The talent is out there and waiting.

Well, now, Little Hawk, I dunno about that Primate Party. I think they may have already made some deep inroads into American politics. After all, for the past seven years, the White House has been occupied by Ronald Reagan's protege, Bonzo.

Elizabeth Dole had some clout until Bob did all those damn Viagra commercials.

McCain is the perfect President for a land war in Asia.
Every war he has fought in was lost. However he has 2 relatives that were Admirals and were on the winning side. McCain is on his bus tour this week an reminded people that his distant relative even served under George Washington. (not a joke)

but then again he did not describe the relative's duties under Washington either.

I heard about the Ron Paul convention from Jesse Ventura on Larry King last night. It was a last minute guest changed since McCain REFUSED to go on the Larry King Show after a CNN reporter yesterday asked Tucker Bounds (McCain camapaign advisor)    "What exactly did Palin do as a commander in chief of the Alaskan National Guard?"   
When Tucker Bounds would not answer 'exactly' what Commanding the National Guard meant to Palin, the CNN reporter asked him 3 more times. 3 more times he would not answer except that Govenors do command the National Guard.

It turns out that Sarah Palin dispatched the National Guard to fight a forest fire.

So McCain would not appear on Larry King in protest of the over the top questioning about Palin's experience.


THE QUESTION...

"WHAT EXACTLY?" is now over the top, rude, outrageous, inflamatory and worthy of punishment from the Republican party.

The "what exactly interview question" is ruthlessly employed by Bill O'Reilly except he won't the person respond if they do know exactly and want to answer. Or he yells "NAME THREE INCIDENTS!" over and over as if the person does not know, and cuts their mike.

CNN did not do that, they were extremely courteous.

A couple of videos of the CNN questioning have disappeared. If you want to see all 8 minutes of it, hurry and CLick Here. They talk about the dau. first, then about 4 minutes in they get into the Natl. Guard stuff. Bounds is pathetic, imo.
