he won't run....

[rove karl rove]

but it would be okay with me if he did - nature abhors a vacuum and he does know what's he's doing.

[Ravy]

1. Of course he won't run. He is dead, you idiot!

This is a Harry Truman thread, isn't it?

[DFW]

2. Well, if you're gonna pick on every little detail.........

[Ravy]

3. Truman was from Missouri. Missouri elected a dead person to defeat Ashcroft.

Maybe *I* am the idiot.

[DFW]

4. Yeah, but Mel Carnahan was only recently deceased

Give 'em Hell Harry has not been with us for a good while now.......

[Ravy]

8. Since when is there a statute of limitations on being dead?

However, I agree with you. I am *not* an idiot, after all.

[DFW]

13. Knowing Scalia, Thomas, Roberts and Alito

It wouldn't surprise me if they found it constitutional
to find it legal to execute someone for having been dead
for longer than some Republican-imposed legal limit.

The penalty for overstaying your time in Hades will be to
listen to Richard Nixon's "Checkers" speech 50 times a day
for a term of not less than one year, and then to editorial
comment on the speech by Tim Russert and Pat Robertson after
every hearing. That should make any sane soul long for death.

[Ravy]

19. Ha! You posted the word "sane" and "Scalia" in the same message! nt

[DFW]

20. Well, yeah, but at opposite ends of the message!

That should be indicative enough.........

[Lucinda]

24. Does that mean we have to do a shot? n/t

[Richard Steele]

5. ...

[Ravy]

7. Self-delete. Posted joke in wrong place *grin*

[Ravy]

9. Nice pic!

Who is that in the little picture (on the paper)?

[Richard Steele]

12. Mao Tse-Tung, of course. nm

[Kelly Rupert]

14. Tse-tung? Don't tell me you're one of those DLC "moderate" Wade-Giles romanization freaks.

Only hardcore anti-"Communist China" neocons don't accept the Pinyin romanization system. What, you'd rather have war with China than write "Zedong?"

;)

[Richard Steele]

15. I learned to spell it ONCE. I'm done. nm

[spanone]

6. you talking about my dog Edgar? he'll run

[lonestarnot]

10. No he's talking about my jackass.

:kick:

[Ravy]

11. Please try to stay on topic!

:hide:

:hi:

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

16. Sure he will.

[JuniperLea]

17. Run? Or Frog March??? eom

[blondeatlast]

18. Because "My DU" is easier than bookmarking...

:popcorn: and :rofl:

[uppityperson]

21. CALL CONGRESS RIGHT F*ING NOW

[Naturyl]

22. I'm holding out for FDR

FDR and FDR ALONE has my vote.

[Swamp Rat]

23. If it rains he will.

If he's not wearing waterproof mascara. :D

[Ghost in the Machine]

25. Maybe he meant Fred? (btw, has Joe for Clark been cloned?)

[Ravy]

27. Fred was *singing* in the rain.

Dancing too, if I remember right.

[Kool Kitty]

26. Sure he will.
