Goehring for Congress?? I can't stop LOL... it's not the Onion either!

[greencharlie]

(I know it's not the exact spelling) seriously... I can't stop lol... a pub named Goehring is running for congress in Ca-11

There's SOOOOOOO much fun that could be had with Photoshops, etc...

1. I know--and he's a Nazi too!

I call all those RWer's Nazis, becasue they are followers of Bush, who is a Nazi by inclination and descent. If anybody doesn't like that, I don't care!

[virgogal]

2. It's his name----so what !

[struggle4progress]

3. Surely we can be adult enough to do better than making fun of his name

[greencharlie]

5. why so serious? Just laugh a little... have fun with it. nt

9. For me, "Goering" will never be a particularly humorous subject

[demosincebirth]

10. Suppose his name was Hitler?

[struggle4progress]

11. Well, you know, there are persons named "Hitler" living in this country. I think if it had been

my own last name, I would consider going to court to have it changed (as many of them have), but apparently not everyone feels that way. I have never met anyone surnamed Hitler, but if I ever do, I hope I will have the decency not to take sneering little cheap shots, since I expect they are unlikely be Nazi admirers: I might be interested to hear about the family history, and I'd probably be undisciplined enough to ask about what common reactions the person experienced when people learned his/her name

4. If Palin's name was "Ice Cream and Apple Pie" would you vote for her?

A person's name shouldn't have anything to do with his electability. But it would be funny if he ran against candidates with names like Hitler, Stalin or Pol Pot.

6. But if Palin's name was "Pitler" wouldn't it open up additional avenues of humor? nt

[JVS]

12. Pitler! LOL!

[AnArmyVeteran]

14. Now she does look like a "Pitler"!!! Say a "Pitler the Grifter" (Sarah Palin Meltdown)

Pitler's a con artist and a master at duping the gullible.

Anyone familiar with Questiontime in the UK? The prime minister is riddled with all kinds of barbs and questions and they have to think on their feet. They have to have a brain. I thought it would be hilarious if Pitler was put in a position like that. She would quickly meltdown mentally, leaving very little mental debris to clean up, but it would be a funny spectacle watching her totally incapable of answering even the simplest questions, like what do you read?

7. Gaaagh! He looks like him too. n/t

[Robeson]

That was my first thought.

[NNN0LHI]

8. He twittered that he wanted to issue hunting licences to kill liberals

[struggle4progress]

13. Well, perhaps you have changed my mind: if he is going to indulge in eliminationist rhetoric,

he is simply begging for soundbites like "Goehring wants political opponents shot"

[arcadian]

15. I would Godwin his ass up to and including election day.

Guaranteed victory.
