Are We Sure Alvin Greene (Dem Sen. Candidate SC) Is Not Like Borat???? WTF?????
Edited on Wed Jul-07-10 10:32 AM by Beetwasher
I mean really, he's got to be Sasha Baron Cohen in black face right?

"Another thing we can do for jobs is make toys of me, especially for the holidays. Little dolls. Me. Like maybe little action dolls. Me in an army uniform, air force uniform, and me in my suit. They can make toys of me and my vehicle, especially for the holidays and Christmas for the kids. That's something that would create jobs. So you see I think out of the box like that. It's not something a typical person would bring up. That's something that could happen, that makes sense. It's not a joke."

:wow:

He can't be real. He just can't. I mean come on! He HAS to be a joke! I refuse to believe this guy's for real. No one and I mean no one is this stupid. Really?

2. GOP ops in SC found a mentally challenged man to exploit for political gain...hard to find it funny

at this point.

He was very likely told he stands to make a lot of money in various ways as a celebrity. He obviously has a childlike belief in what he's told.

3. Yeah, I Guess That Explains It
But shouldn't he have a handler or are they just letting him hang out there?

Bizarre.

5. What CAN be done? I hear they may support an Independent.
Pretty much what they'll be doing in Florida.
