16 Sep 08 - 12:45 PM (#2442179) Subject: RE: BS: McCain sitcom From: GUEST,Don Firth (computer still in the shop) Garrison Keillor is in Seattle, and right at this very moment, I am listening to him being interviewed by Steve Scher on local NPR affiliate KUOW-FM. Keillor just remarked that, in this political campaign, satire is futile because the campaign itself is its own satire. Incisive! The man has a sense of proportion. Don Firth |

Hell, I could have come up with it, too ~ you, too, most likely. When I read somewhere about Tom Lehrer's comment, some nmber of years ago, I forget whether my reaction was "I coulda said that" or "Gee, I said that myself already." |

Actually, Lehrer came to this conclusion when Kissinger was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. |

17 Sep 08 - 03:39 PM (#2443362) Subject: RE: BS: McCain sitcom From: Stringsinger You will all laugh so hard that it will hurt. McCain is being marketed by unscrupulous politicians and quite opposite of being funny, it compromises basic American principles of Democracy. You won't laugh all the way to the bank if McCain gets in. You'll find out that the joke is on you because you refused to take this flim-flam candidacy seriously enough. |
