Hey there, all. I just recieved this email from my uncle and I really got a kick out of it, so I decided I'd share it with all of you. If you are a Democrat, or a member of any other party that opposes the US Republican Party, it is suggested that you read no more of this post.
A popular Des Moines, Iowa Barber shop had a new robotic barber installed.
A fellow came in for a haircut. As the robot began to cut his hair it asked him, "What's your IQ?" The man replied, "130." So the robot proceeded to make conversation about physics, astronomy, investments, insurance, and so on. The man listened intently and said, "This is really cool."
Later, another gent came in for a haircut and the robot asked him as it began the haircut, "What's your IQ?" The man responded, "100." So the robot started talking about football, baseball, and so on. The man thought to himself, "Wow, this is really cool."
Later on, a third guy came in to the barbershop. As with the others,the robot barber asked him, "What's your IQ?" The man replied, "40." The robot then said, "So, I understand you Democrats are really excited about Hillary running for president?"
Poor, poor Hillary. Seems people out there don't like you.
Lawlz, democrats are st00pid.

I heard that, pal. It's a shame Bush can't have a third term, in my opinion.

I know I don't, but then, to each their own opinion, no?

No, he's done a splendid job f-ing this country up. In fact, better in 8 years than most could do in 25-30.

Man, didn't you get the memo about leet being used only by noobs now?
LOL...I've heard that one, but it didn't insult Dems, it insulted tree-hugging environmentalists.
The best part about that joke is that you can change the last bit into almost anything you wish to mock.
Good stuff. :)

I don't know if this strikes you guys as a possibility, but lots and LOTS of Democrats, or even just the broad spectrum of non-Republicans, DON'T WANT HER IN OFFICE. She's fine as a Congresswoman. Especially far, far away from my state. But God, if we're going to finally get a woman in office, I really hope it's not her.
(I mean really, her ass is HUGE)
((not that this is the real reasoning behind it))
(((but it really is HUGE)))

Indeed you could. That's part of what is so great about the joke.
Replying to what Sterkenland said: From my point of view, this nation is doing great with him in office. Most of the Democrats I speak to who say Bush has screwed up the country are at a loss when I ask them to explain exactly how.
Having said that, I ask you to explain to me exactly how you think he has screwed up this country.

It could feed the hungry.
Anyway, I've always believed we should have photogenic leaders (not that it has happened recently), but let's face it, since we always get stuck with incompetents anyway, we might as well pick the good looking ones.

Democrats, environmentalists, all kinds of people can be insulted with this joke if you just change it around a little bit.
My thanks, by the way.

Well he managed to widen the split between pro and con moreso than anyone before him (except Lincoln maybe... :p )
He managed to turn a budget surplus into a rather large budget deficit without actually showing an anywhere near proportionate economic success for it.
He managed to squander all the goodwill the US had after 11.9.2001 and instead make the States more hated than they ever were before.
Under his "rule" the DPRK completed its nuke-program and Iran is on its way, all the while the US being completely preoccupied in Iraq, where plenty of Americans have died in order to make sure that plenty of Iraqis continue to enjoy their freedom/terrorist attacks.
Under his rule the IMF and the World Bank have become the only properly funded UN institutions, and serve to do nothing but push a neo-classical form of economics that has been shown to not help anyone out in any meaningful way.
He has failed to do anything to strengthen the UN, which (like it or not) is the only body in the world with the credibility to actually solve issues like global inequality and terrorism.
Perhaps someone from the States would like to continue about the domestic implications of him being PotUS...
