06 Nov 04 - 05:05 PM (#1319064) Subject: BS: Humor to soften the blow From: Jim Dixon I'm not interested in hearing Republicans gloat. I don't want to read about conspiracy theories right now, even if they're true. I don't want to see anything that will make me more depressed or angrier. I WANT STUFF THAT WILL MAKE ME LAUGH, or that will GRAPHICALLY reflect the way I feel. Here's what I've found so far: Same shit, different asshole! Marry an American - a Canadian offer to help. Joining's easy, eh, an invitation from the Toronto Sun. O Canada, we plead to cede to thee from the Philadelphia Daily News.

Click anything. This show never disappoints. The Onion always has something good. Dave Letterman's Top Ten Archive has some good stuff about Bush. |

The cached link you posted for "O Canada, we plead to cede to thee" didn't seem to work, so here's one that might do the job: O Canada, we plead to cede to thee (cached) Cheers... |

22 Nov 04 - 08:56 AM (#1335215) Subject: RE: BS: Humor to soften the blow From: Jim Dixon Copied from another thread, where it was posted by an unnamed GUEST: In the spirit of reconciliation with my Republican friends and neighbors, I offer the following poem: The election is over, the results are now known. The will of the people has clearly been shown. We should show by our thoughts and our words and our deeds That unity is just what our country now needs. Let's all get together. Let bitterness pass. I'll hug your elephant. You kiss my ass. |

22 Nov 04 - 05:22 PM (#1335721) Subject: RE: BS: Humor to soften the blow From: Mr Red One recycled from the impeachment archive I suspect One sunny day in 2005 an old man approached the White House from across Pennsylvania Avenue, where he'd been sitting on a park bench. He spoke to the U. S. Marine standing guard and said, "I would like to go in and meet with President Bush." The Marine looked at the man and said, "Sir, Mr. Bush is no longer president and no longer resides here." The old man said, "Okay" and walked away. The following day, the same man approached the White House and said to the same Marine, "I would like to go in and meet with President Bush." The Marine again told the man, "Sir, as I said yesterday, Mr. Bush is no longer president and no longer resides here." The man thanked him and, again, just walked away. The third day, the same man approached the White House and spoke to the very same U. S. Marine, saying "I would like to go in and meet with President Bush." The Marine, understandably agitated at this point, looked at the man and said, "Sir, this is the third day in a row you have been here asking to speak to Mr. Bush. I've told you already that Mr. Bush is no longer the president and no longer resides here. Don't you understand?" The old man looked at the Marine and said, "Oh, I understand. I just love hearing it." The Marine snapped to attention, saluted, and said, "See you tomorrow." |
