The shortest, bestest joke ever...

[Atman]

A fascist, a fundamentalist and a felon walk into a bar.

The bartender says, “It’s an honor Mr. President”.

[HughBeaumont]

1. HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

For Ohioans, it'd be this dick:

[IndyOp]

5. Yep. "It's an honor Mr. Secretary of State." No doubt!

Did you read in RFK's Rolling Stone article that when he refused to follow Ohio law re: elections, this jerk compared himself to Mohandes Gandhi?

4. new punchline...

the bartender says: "what'll it be, mr. president?"

[RobertSeattle]

"Will you have the usual?"

--------------------------------
Since it's "committed a felony" not "convicted of a felony" Bush qualifies. . .and, even if that were arguable, he certainly qualifies as "An evil person."

12. OHO! So "convicted felon" is not redundant! Did not know that. nt

[pat_k]

13. Yep. If, as dictionary.com indicates, conviction is not implicit in . . .

. . .the term felon, then "convicted felon" is actually a necessary qualification to refer to one who had committed, and been found guilty of, a felony.

The logic gets fouled when "innocent until proven guilty" is tossed into the mix. Unless the offender has confessed, you can't know that they committed the crime until they're convicted.

Since Bush openly and repeatedly admits his central crime, he has essentially convicted himself. As far as I'm concerned, his crimes are proven because they are self-evident.

. . .Treason is defined as "Violation of allegiance toward one's country or sovereign." In the United States, it is the collective will of the people that is sovereign.

The occupants of the White House not only terrorized us into war with baseless threats of mushroom clouds, they are violating countless laws; invoking a fictional right to do so (e.g. claiming authority to continue criminal surveillance of Americans without warrants). Bush and Cheney are leading a conspiracy to violate our collective will. Their actions constitute treason against our constitutional democracy. . .

Dictionaries are truly wonderful things.
