Well Clintion isn't really a sex offender actually. I mean besides adultry it was completely legal. She wasn't underage and she was 'willing'. So it's not Rape.

Yes. Because, as the poster above me pointed out, he's not a sex offender. Some had "fun" with photoshop, methinks.

What is this "photoshop" of which you speak? Surely a photography would never lie?

Sigh. Didn't think this one through. What a waste of perfectly good film. But at least I got a nice snapshot of your bum.

Would you accept payment in escudos? Or perhaps 50 pesetas? Failing that, I do believe I have some rubles and Krugerrands hidden in the fridge.

Or, you know, they could just blow me.

I'll have the Krügerrands, thank you very much. But please warm them up before handing them over.

Well, not that that hadn't crossed my mind, but seeing how you'd 1) only be there on paper and 2) only have your backside with you, I'd figured that might be somewhat of an impossibility. Silly me.

Yes, silly you. Why pay for a picture, when they can have the real thing for free? You fail at capitalism.

ROFLMFAO!!! Oh God! LOL!

Yes, that has to be a joke someone played by having a sign made and tacking it beneath the top one. I've seen the top one while going through Arkansas, but never the bottom one.

Plus, the bottom one seems to be bending in the wind, which would indicate that it's cardboard, which means that it's bogus.

Eut, have you never heard of photo editing software? Click on the earlier link to Snopes.com a few posts back and see the wonder of technology used for spurious purposes!

God bless Snopes.com! I derive a lot of personal satisfaction by replying with a Snopes link every time some panicked co-worker, family member or friend sends a picture or "news story" that's complete crap.

It's an obvious fake, but i did have to think about it it for a few seconds, considering that the last odd (but rwal) picture I saw was of an Idaho license plate which proudly advertised how Scenic Idaho is famous for its potatoes. That, for a British person who almost never sees a license plate with more than numbers and letters on it, was just ridiculous.

I guess Bill Clinton cooperated in the "construction" by spooging on Monica's blue dress, right?

Oh, and inserting that cigar! Right!

Hillary was right! Even her own husband is part of the vast right-wing conspiracy!

Of course it's real. Didn't you know Bill Clinton molested and raped hundreds of women and children while president, before killing them and draining their blood for Hilary's nightly bath-time?

I was raised in a simpler day and age, a time when it was considerably more difficult to create visual lies. My first impulse is to think someone made an actual sign. Yes, I have heard of photo editing software, but seldom use it. My most humble apologies for this serious shortcoming. I will proceed to repent in sackcloth and ashes.

I seriously doubt that. :rolleyes:

However, I wouldn't put it past the Ice Queen to bathe in the blood of newborn infants, if she thought she could get away with it. :D

A simple self-flagellation will do nicely. ;)

Ridiculous? Look, just because your socialist nightmare of a society hasn't got the creativity to adorn their license plates....

The gamut runs from "Famous Potatoes" (which my home state of Washington grows more and better of than Idaho, by the way) to New Hampshire's unequivocal "Live Free or Die". Now THAT's creativity.

Ever look anything up while you're online? It's quicker and likely far more accurate than a General response.

In the US, if you're a convicted sex offender of any type, your US State will keep track of your whereabouts forever.

And publish that in an online database.

And notify neighborhoods that you move into.

So people will know to stay away from you. Forever.
