Zod kicks off campaign in Philly

PHILADELPHIA (Reuters) -- General Zod launched his 2008 Presidential bid yesterday, greeted by a crowd of over 25,000.

"I am General Zod!" he bellowed, surveying the masses. "Listen to me, people of the Earth! Today I bring a new order to your planet! Your lands, your homes, your possessions, your very lives -- all of this and more you will gladly give to me! In return, I promise you lower taxes and cheap gas prices!"

The promise was met by wild cheers and a fanfare of balloons and confetti.

He continued: "It is as useless for you to deny me your vote as it is for me to annihilate you. You will only bring death and destruction upon yourselves, while I lose the potential products of your labor. In return for your vote, you will have my generous protection! In other words - you will be allowed to live.

"Hear me now! There is now one law, one order, one ruler who alone will determine your collective destiny! Kneel before me! From this day forward - there is only Zod!"

The reception among the crowd was enthusiastic. Said Doris Eddins, 53, of Trenton, "That's my President right there. I hear he's gonna put a lien on my house, but he's promising tax refunds. You hear that? The President's gonna send me a check!"

Zod is expected to make stops in Cincinnati and Indianapolis tomorrow.

3. hmm, change "Zod" to "God" sounds like Western Religion

and you have a modern version of ancient populist religion. Maybe this is obvious to everyone else but it struck me:

You people have become disgusting minions to these things you call idols. These things take your money and your land, put you into debt, enslave your sons, provide you with unclean foods, and sue you when you say anything bad about them. Yet you people fatten them up at the marketplace. You give them free land, name your stadiums after them, allow them sacrifice your own usury protections. Quite frankly it astonishes me. I will break this sickly codependency. It is I God Alone who shall be your ruler. I shall empower you with wealth to give me as tribute. An idol cannot bow to me or give me tribute that comes from the heart.

4. OTOH

"I offer you direct candor and brutal certainty"

That's why the wingnuts voted for Bush.

5. With just a couple of tweeks (mostly the photos) this could be Cheney's site should he decide to run

Seriously.

6. His platform has some surprisingly liberal planks

" Universal health care. Even a criminal like myself is shocked that millions are not able to get health insurance and cannot pay for basic surgery."

But this-
" I do not take orders. I give them. Congress shall no longer have the ability to impeach me or override my decisions, and the Supreme Court shall not meddle in government affairs. "

Well thanks, but we already got one of those.

[drm604]

10. You left out some context on the health care issue.

Universal health care. Even a criminal like myself is shocked that millions are not able to get health insurance and cannot pay for basic surgery. Who are these power brokers that allow the pigpen to become wormy and filthy? I demand your very lives, but I am not such an imbecile as to institutionalize suffering and poverty. You have my assurance that this shall change swiftly.

Yes, mustn't let our pigpen become wormy and filthy!

7. Now there is a man who leads from the front!

Congress people could learn a thing or two about not being cowardly and avoiding hard decisions!

[Uncle Joe]

8. This is great drm

:rofl:

[slay]

9. Oh man, that's great.. an honest oppressor.. hahaha

Run Zod run! :patriot:

[drm604]

11. Hey,

maybe he'll be a spoiler and split the freeper vote!

[tjwash]

12. Now HERE'S an honest candidate in Japan...

This dude is certifiable.

This Toyama guy is actually a genius comedian/activist, and is making a joke out of the Japanese democracy. Spoof or not, it's a freaking riot to watch either way. It's like if that nutty guy in your neighborhood that walks around in his bathrobe and screams at trees was to run for office, this is the type of campaign speech he would use.

[drm604]

13. You should post that in Political Videos.

It's very entertaining.

[NormanYorkstein]

14. OMG

I would so vote for that guy.

Give me your malicious vote! Elections don't change anything anyway! If I win, they freak out. I will freak out too!

[Selatius]

15. "If you elect me, they will freak out. ...I will freak out, too."

:crazy:
