  1. Chancellor   17 years ago

    So Betty Boop is a Welfare Statist who is pro-gay, pro-animal rights, pro-public transit, anti-death penalty... My Gawd, she's Kucinich in a dress!

  2. Abdul   17 years ago

    I just got a call from a push pollster suggesting Betty Boop has had children out of wedlock.

  3. drawnasunder   17 years ago

    From the same era: letter from the editor of the Onion:

    "I almost cannot believe it is time for the suet-brained populace of this flagging Republic to be once again herded into the voting-booths to allegedly choose precisely which bloody-handed butcher will crack their bones and suck the marrow over the next few years."

    http://www.theonion.com/content/columnists/a_letter_of_introduction?utm_source=onion_rss_daily

  4. Zevatron   17 years ago

    There's wisdom in that Onion article:

    "I have not voted since becoming a wealthy industrialist, having figured out some time ago that it is much wiser to employ the organ grinder than vote for the monkey"

  5. Bruce Majors   17 years ago

    No. The hot hot hot political video today is this:

    http://www.youtube. com/watch? v=sVeFVtcdSYY

    Do you think the Clinton campaign is involved?

  6. Bruce Majors   17 years ago

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVeFVtcdSYY

    This is a second attempt to make it more clickable.

  7. pinko   17 years ago

    Bruce,

    WTF???

  8. Bruce Majors   17 years ago

    What do you mean WTF pinko?

    This "deposition" from an alleged homosexual prostitute about his coke and crack fueled tryst with said presidential candidate has been circulating all over the internet all morning.

  9. Nike Juckabee   17 years ago

    Good thing I was high when I watched that video.

  10. The Wine Commonsewer   17 years ago

    Jesse Walker, you are a gem. As was that Boop cartoon.

    When I was five years old I had a mad crush on Boop. Used to run up to the Philco and kiss the TV screen.

  11. The Wine Commonsewer   17 years ago

    Bruce, as I recall libertarians love dirty politics. In fact, didn't Reason do a story on that?

    Is it true? Is it false?

    Do I care?

    NOPE. 'cuz I would never consider voting for Obama anyway.

  12. The Wine Commonsewer   17 years ago

    Besides, the only people who will believe that Obama was doing coke and guys in the back seat are people who don't plan to vote for him anyway. Obama supporters will simply call BS on the story.

    This sort of reminds me of when Boxer planted the story about her Republican opponent being going to hookers the day before the election.

  13. miche   17 years ago

    I think the Obama story should be in the news at least half as much as that particular donation to Ron Paul's campaign. While I really don't care about Obama's tastes in sex and drugs, knowing that LP candidates wouldn't get a pass made me feel much better about reposting the video this morning.

  14. The Wine Commonsewer   17 years ago

    Michelle: 1

    Reasonoids Against Ron Paul: 0

  15. guy in the back row   17 years ago

    This video is really cool!

  16. Bruce Majors   17 years ago

    While I am entertained by seeing major party candidates eat each other in general, I posted that video in part because I wanted someone to trace its provenance. I loved Tucker's show tonight where he asked befuddled Demwit bobble heads about the Clinton's open fanning of racism in the Demwit Party and the resulting idiotic spinning of the little chattering cretins in denial.

  17. Hmm   17 years ago

    So she's for income redistribution, free movies & jazz, universal rain coverage, and progressive criminal reform.

    Is that Red I smell, comrade?
