We are, as of yesterday, one year to the Presidential election. And so it seems appropriate to turn my attention once more to the work of the editorial cartoonists, and their take on the seemingly endless Republican quest to find someone who can take down President Obama a year from now.
It hasn't been going well. Sufficed to say... these morons are what the GOP would select?
Let's see here... when we last left off, Governor Chris Christie (who might well have been a half respectable choice for the nomination) kept telling the party hacks to "go away, I'm not interested, leave me alone, what part of drop dead do you not understand?" Oh, and of course "if you don't stop bothering me, I'll have you whacked, you idiots." And of course, the Mama Grizzly, Sarah Palin, has dropped out of the game. Her day is done, and rather then blame herself and her ill considered decision to do a reality show about her family, she's planning on having that author who moved in next door for awhile to do a bio... whacked.
Meanwhile, for some inexplicable reason, Pizza Guy moved into first place in the polls. It's an abberation. No, I don't understand it either....
Basic Presidential rules: no one named Herman should even have the right to run for President. Let's face it, no foreign leader will respect a President named Herman. Especially when this Herman seems to think that no government report should be more then three pages.
I'll have more next time on the scandal erupting around Pizza Guy. For now, I'll say this. Having had heard enough of his nutty statements, I was wondering what it was about Herman Cain that seemed so familiar. Then it hit me. He reminds me of Ross Perot.
Herman Cain is the Second Coming of Ross Perot.
By the way, that's not a good thing.
Meanwhile, Governor Mittens and the Second Coming of Dubya, Rick Perry remain in the race, taking shots at each other with regularity....
And Michelle Bachmann just won't go away....
There's just one way to settle this whole thing, and come up with a candidate. In the Thunderdome...
"Two men enter! One man leaves!"
I'm not clairvoyant, but I'm pretty sure I can predict your future, partner.
ReplyDeleteThe Republicans put a price on your head. Stephen Harper (your favorite PM) would like to have you whacked but can't get his hands dirty, sooooo...the GOP will take the White House (because as everybody knows, the Pizza Guy will deliver in 30 minutes or we're free) and cut a trade deal with Canada that will include you being sent to the US to test a new form of nerve gas.
Yes, they think you have a lot of nerve.
Oh, now, some of these were just too good. There were too many I liked to mention. Well done!
ReplyDeleteSeems like there's a too much political chaos in the U.S.A.,as well.We in Greece narrowly escaped insolvency just yesterday,because our politicians care more about their seats than their country.
ReplyDeleteThat Bauchmann witch pic is perfect! Obama really raised the bar for idiots. It's going to take years and years to even out. This next election...people just want someone slightly less idiotic and Republican. It's going to suck either way.
ReplyDeleteAt least you know we're having fun down here!
ReplyDeleteWell, as long as there is politics, you'll never be without something to blog about!! LOL
ReplyDeleteI give up on politics (American and Canadian)...no one will ever be good enough for these two great nations!
It will be interesting to see how it shakes out. I personally am not a fan of big government. So I probably will be voting for one of those GOP candidates that you don't like. But hopefully we can still be friends.
ReplyDeleteI'll vote for whoever wins the GOP nomination, in an attempt to get Obama out ... but even this early, it's clear I'll probably have to hold my nose to do it.
ReplyDeleteWe'll certainly have our choice of colorful characters next year, William! I'm predicting an all-time crazy election year with lots of riots, scandal, protests and the like. We're already off to a good (i.e. sad) start.
ReplyDeleteEJ
GOP is a Golly o'lot'O Politics. Thanks for the laughs, William.
ReplyDeleteAnd God bless the GOP, particularly if they be Conservatives.
Umm... well reading your essay about spoiled brats I was sure you were conservative. Anyway, I will also be voting for one of the GOP candidates. I am hoping not the ones you have mentioned here though.
ReplyDeleteThese damn politicians, same people, different suits.
