BS: My Concession Speech

From: Rapparee

First, I want to congratulate Barack Obama on his victory. He has been an admirable opponent, truthful and honest and open-handed in his dealings with me. Never once could I accuse him of "negative campaigning" and I hope he can say the same of me.

Yes, I am disappointed. I could have used those Presidential retirement benefits and I am certain that Bobert is also disappointed.

But I promised President-Elect Obama on the phone a few moments ago that I would do everything in my power to support his presidency and I will not ask for any special offices, like Ambassador to the Court of St. James or something, to do so.

Again, congratulations. It was a good fight and God Bless.

Good man, Rapaire.

Way to go, man. Chongo has, as you know, given warm tribute to your unique contributions to the APP campaign, as well as to Bobert's tireless efforts in the same cause. Either one of you will be more than welcome at the shortly-to-open Primate-Human Friendship Center that Chongo's campaign manager Renata Carson will soon be setting up in Chicago.

A great diappointment indeed that the Rapaire/Bobert ticket didn't get elected.

It may not be too late to demand a recount. Heck, ya'll only lost by something like 140,000,000 votes.

Chongo is the one in charge on that, Bee-Dub and he has already gracefully conceded to Obama. There will be no recount.

It is a real shame, though, that we will not get to see what Bobert would do as Secretary of Cannabis in a Chongo administration or what Rapaire would do as VP. I believe he had plans to mount 50 cal machine guns in the White House library. An historic opportunity has been missed.

Don't be silly. They would make too much noise. ANY gunfire in a library MUST be done by weapons using silencers.

Oh. Of course. Why didn't I think of that?
