THE REPUB HOT TUB TIME MACHINE

OR...MEET THE FOCKERS!

 

Trent Lott drove to the mansion of Ted Cruz for the 'event'.

Many things were on his mind.

Why am I doing this?, thought the old Senate Majority Leader.

But Cruz represented the New Hope!

THE WEDDING

The Spanish Wedding

My new daughter-in-law finally made an honest man of my son!

My beautiful granddaughter is no longer a bastard. (or is it bastardess?) Hahahahahah

I told my brother that in Victorian England with all the prudence? that 80% of the 'public' (read unwashed) never married and the Law of Bastardy applied only to the inbred aristocracy. haaah

IRONY

So he asked me if I believed that Jonas really survived in the belly of a whale for three days.

I responded that I did not know but maybe I will ask him when I get to heaven.

And what if he is not in heaven when you arrive.

Well then you can ask him.

HONESTY IN THE REPUBLICAN PARTY


The curse of being Irish is that
women just love me for my stories!
(Eyewitness_(1981_film@32min)

Honesty is the best policy?

Really?

Forget the best policy aspect of this Franklinian (is that a word?) proverb; does it work or do we need more stories from Irishmen?

Honesty has been creeping into our media lately and the honesty has been coming from the repubs; of all people?

Rep. Scott DesJarlais (R-Tenn.) told an 11-year-old girl who spoke out at a town hall meeting last week that her undocumented father should be deported, saying "we need to follow" current immigration laws.

A NEW LOOK AT THE UNEMPLOYMENT PROBLEM

LAMAR ALEXANDER

 

THE NEW JOB PROGRAM

I have an idea that will really create jobs in this country.

I have studied this issue for decades.

And I have finally found the answer.

EPISTOMOLOGY VS. NIHILISM

I have not been over to the Onion for sometime.

I come across this perverted 'news' from time to time.

I cannot find the link but the Onion article I caught spoke about the hazards of working in the subway.

It cited the 'fact' that some 25,000 workers die every year attempting to save mass transit in a particular area; NYC!

My reaction was (and still is) terrible.

Every time I read this faux news item, I found myself laughing uncontrollably.

AN ODE TO PAULA DEEN!

 

I think that I shall never see

A poem as lovely as Paula Deen

A Southern Lady with real taste

Who cooks the entire pig eschewing waste

 

A Southern Belle with the temerity

WHERE HAVE ALL THE COMEDIANS GONE?

 

 

You know a friend of mine is a comedian and he had this gig in Vegas or somesuch and there were these Germans in the audience.

And he told me that following a comedic presentation there some Germans came back to have a tete-a-tete with him.
