upcoming election

[muck]

A friend of mine received an email from a friend of his who lives in Ireland. The email read as follows:

 

'We, in Ireland, can't figure out why you people are even bothering to hold an election in the United States.

 

On one side, you had a pants wearing female lawyer, married to another lawyer who can't seem to keep his pants on, who just lost a long and heated primary against a lawyer, who goes to the wrong church, who is married to yet another lawyer, who doesn't even like the country her husband wants to run!

 

Now...On the other side, you have a nice old war hero whose name starts with the appropriate 'Mc' terminology, married to a good looking younger woman who owns a beer distributorship !!

 

What on earth are ya lads thinkin over in the colonies ??

 

.....................

 

Discuss.

It's kind of weird that the right wingers keep on diseminating emails from alleged europeans (look it up, there is exactly the same email somewhere in the tailgate from, I beleive a scandinavian fellow with the same basic joke only cruder) but of course when Obama gets positive feedback from Europeans the rightwingers dismiss any opinion coming from europe.

If you are going to make up emails, why do it from a stance that you are fundamentally opposed to?

 

And once again, is it just my imagination or does the right way more into cut and paste forwarded emails than the left?

Yes, by about a factor of 200 to 1.

umm, it's a joke. for the purposes of the joke, it doesn't really matter if the guy is a pollack or a brit or an australian. nor does it matter if the stick up your ass is poplar, ash, or maple.

Whoa - Az is mentioning the stick up someone else's ass?

...sorry...I thought it was a legitimate email from an actual friend of a friend...

No prob. The precise reason that my commentary is in regards to politics rather than humour (Az's hyper literal interpretation notwithstanding)

Perhaps here, but they tend to come from the same finite group of morans.

 

There are plenty of tards on both sides of the political spectrum, and they both generate idiotic material. For every "Obama is a muslim t'rrst" email, there's a "Have to agree here Bush is consipiring with Exxon to drive up oil prices" website. There are way, way too many dipsh*ts in this country for one political persuasion to have a monopoly.

So... you don't think that a group of former oil executives suddenly given the keys to the white house didn't serve the same interests they've had for two decades.

 

Interesting theory.

Well you know what they say, the easiest way to make money is to start a environmental conspiracy theory while whoring yourself out to energy lobbyists is a distant second.
