Poll question: Hypothetical: The White House announces that President Bush...
Edited on Fri Oct-03-08 12:16 PM by Mr_Jefferson_24
...is a vampire (a real vampire), which is later confirmed by credible independent sources. Bush makes a speech following this announcement where he informs the U.S. citizenry that he no longer intends to feed off the blood of livestock, but instead will from now on, be sustained by children chosen as sacrifices to come from the general population of households making less than $65,000 a year, and will ask Congress to pass legislation authorizing this. He goes on to explain how urgent the matter is and claims that it is absolutely necessary in order to save Main Street -- or, in his words: "If the children aren't loosened up, the sucker could go down."

Do you believe that perhaps after adding a few sweeteners, a bit of pork here and a bit of pork there, that Congress would find a way to pass such a measure in order to satisfy George W. Bush?

1. It's much more likely that Dick Cheney is the vampire.
Bush would be like his familiar. Check his lip for tatoos.

2. I wouldn't argue with you on that...
...Darth Cheney would have to be some sort of monster.

4. I dunno, it depends on the credible independent sources. Who would they be?
I'm not sure any source is credible or independent anymore.

9. You got me there.
I used to view left gatekeeper media as credible and independent, but since our two obviously stolen presidential elections, 9-11, the Sibel Edmonds case, and many other events, that's just not how I see them anymore.

6. I have no doubt.
They will bend to the will of their corporate masters.

When people are crying and starving they will draft our youth to fight in their military machine in their empire wars.

That is vampirism! Blood-sucking whores of Satan!

7. It's low-income kids being sacrificed?
Edited on Fri Oct-03-08 01:05 PM by Naturyl
No problem. Aren't low-income people already under the bus?

We have to think of the people who matter. The sacrosanct MIDDLE CLASS.

8. alien lizards don't "ask" Congress, THEY tell Congress.
Our reptile overlords are already bloated on the bodies of dead Iraqi babies. No need to cull the human livestock at this time.
