    If this is the Friday Funnies I'll rate it "well above average".

  2. smacky   18 years ago

    "That's So Raven!/McCain '08"

    I will volunteer to make this happen.

  3. dhex   18 years ago

    they could save money by firing the friday "funnies" people - who are no doubt nice folk who love their families and puppies and whatnot - and just getting random blogger hilarity like this for free.

    "He's Newt F'in Gingrich, bitch!!!"

    Really great!

  5. mk   18 years ago

    Man, I can't wait to see the wacky hijinx that will happen when Raven is VP.

    Like Raven accidentally said she would go to the senior prom with both the ambassador from Russia and the ambassador from Georgia. Uh-oh! What is she gonna do?

  6. Pro Libertate   18 years ago

    McCain/Lagasse, eh? Think of what Emeril's excellent cooking abilities could bring to the table? Peace through better cuisine!

  7. Dagny T.   18 years ago

    Looks like it's Palin.

    ...too bad, McCain. I know that thing about the oval office painted in blood, entrails and paprika was a secret turn-on.

  8. The Wine Commonsewer   18 years ago

    she might get pissy when I kill the Eskiomos for their oil

    Great stuff.

    BAM! He went with her anyway.

  9. Pro Libertate   18 years ago

    Oh, you said pissy. I was wondering where this was going.

    Man, I can't wait to see the wacky hijinx that will happen when Raven is VP.

    Like Raven accidentally said she would go to the senior prom with both the ambassador from Russia and the ambassador from Georgia. Uh-oh! What is she gonna do?

    Oh, please, it's easy, just take them both but make sure that they don't see each other!
    What could possibly go wrong?
