LOL!!! A picture that's worth a thousand hilarious words...

Incumbent Republican Congressman Curt Weldon (R) discusses issues with voters from the Glen Mills School as they wait in line to cast their ballot during the midterm elections in Thornton, Pennsylvania, November 7, 2006. (Beverly Schaefer/Reuters)

Looks like one helluva "discussion"!!! :rofl:

"Incumbent Republican Congressman Curt Weldon (R) basks in the glow of an enthusiastic election day reception, November 7, 2006. (Crankie Avalon/Democratic Underground)"

1. Is that fuck campaigning at a polling place???????

[DontBlameMe]

2. Is that not, oh how do they say it,...

SLIGHTLY AGAINST THE LAW???!!!!!!!

[Crankie Avalon]

4. He's just "discussing the issues"...

...doesn't look like the voters are quite on his side of the "discussion," though.

[Hav]

5. .

"discusses issues with voters from the Glen Mills School as they wait in line to cast their ballot during the midterm elections"

It surely seems so. But they don't really seem to like him ;).
They look as if they were rounded up and forced to listen to him.

[Mist]

7. Doesn't look like it's doing him much good, from the looks on their faces! Is

there a link for this?

[Crankie Avalon]

11. The link to this you asked for:

16. Glenn Mills is the oldest residential school for court referred young

men in the US. I think Curt is asking them about prison chow since he will soon be dining at the tax payer expense when the feds finish investigating his sorry ass for influence peddling.

3. That one guy looks like he's about 2 seconds away from smacking

Weldon. I hope he smacked him with a vote for his opponent.

And yes, I don't think the man should be campaigning outside a polling place.

[noamnety]

10. Wow. Check your stereotypes, please

There's nobody in that photo that looks 2 seconds away from smacking anyone.

Disgusted, unimpressed, maybe. Nothing threatening.

[Subdivisions]

15. Stereotype?

[treestar]

20. Lighten up. I'd look like I wanted to smack him too if I was there.

Race, creed or color notwithstanding.

[AndyA]

24. Stereotypes? Did I mention anything stereotypical?

I didn't pick out any one particular person, and in my opinion at least two of them look like they could be close to telling the guy to take a hike.

You might want to check your own stereotypes, you made the distinction, not I.

[FuzzyDicePHL]

25. I'm trying really hard,

but I can't see where any stereotypes come into play in AndyA's comment....?

[Alamom]

13. Smacking is right.....all down the line. None of those young men

look too happy with this guy.


Maybe it's because we're in a war of choice and they are young & draftable IF & WHEN.

Do these pigs not realize,

PEOPLE ARE NOT STUPID & MANY, MANY OF THOSE WHO MESSED UP LAST TIME, KNOW BETTER NOW.

9. This is known as "electioneering" IIRC. It's a CRIME.

Somebody needs to place a phone call to the PA Attorney General's office PDQ.

[Pirate Smile]

12. I feel for those guys. Geez, you go to vote, have to stand in line and

this bozo shows up and tries to talk to you.

Uggghh. Get lost!

[FuzzyDicePHL]

14. They're all thinking...

1st guy from left: "I think this guy just farted."
2nd guy from left: "Is this guy on crack?"
3rd guy from left: "Isn't this the guy being investigated by the FBI?"
4th guy from left: "Shut the hell up before I smack you!"
5th guy from left: "Hey, I'm getting my picture taken!"

[Beelzebud]

17. ROFL I love that tee shirt. I'm straight and I'd proudly wear it. :D

[Quantess]

22. LOL! That cracked me up!

[FuzzyDicePHL]

23. Thanks for the kind words, y'all :)

eom

[shain from kane]

18. Weldon: "And what kind of tennis shoes are you wearing?" It's

obvious that he has nothing in common with these students.

[oasis]

19. Weldon: "Are you cats hip to what's going down on Able Danger?"

:-)

[Beelzebud]

21. LMAO!

HAHAHAHAHA man thats too fucking much!! LOL
