I know this probably isn't how ventriloquism works in real life, but...

If you could suddenly control what a politician says during a speech against his will whose speech would you control and what would you make him/her say?

(I only named this thread vantriloquism for simplicity so people would get what this thread is about since thats what Disney depicts vantriquism as, controlling what someone else says)

Firefox 2.0 is your friend.

I'd have him launch into a jaunty tune. :p

What does that have to do with this thread? :confused:

All of the Legislative and the Executive Branch and have them all admit that they are lying hypocrites who manipulate the American people for their own gains and then have them list all the crimes, etc. they've done while in office. No lies, mind you. Just the truth for once.

Then I sit back and watch the fun.

(Note I left the Justice Department and Branch out so that they can prosecute if need be)

because the built in spell checker in FF 2.0 would have pointed out that there is no "a" in ventriloquism

ROFL. :D

I probably would have them promise to reduce the power and size of the government, install the Fair Tax Plan, and basically create a Libertarian Style government. :D

ROFL. :D

Surely there isn't a single better answer...

Besides applying the same to every government in the world rather than just my own. :)

EDIT: Hell, I'll throw in big businesses and things of that sort, too.

Imagine it. Everyone in power admitting their crimes and misdeeds, handing their fate to the innocent (and the Judiciary Branch, since we still need all this to be legal.)

I'd have the democrats running for president go "If I become president we shall all have aborted fetuses for breakfast!!"

Then I'd have the Reps going say <insert joke thread I made on NSG for me to read off here> or I'd have him/her go "it doesn't matter who you vote for, either way your planet is doomed...doomed!" or a simple "Attention my fellow Americans...we're all going to die!"

:D

Rep: In a world that suddenly became all rubber...and then the walruses would take over using bubble blowers to microwave out tanks....

Lies are not what we need, SL. Only the truth will make people pissed enough to change things.

Imagine the reaction of the African-American and Hispanic communities when all the Congressmen would admit their bigotry and "how all blacks/hispanics <<insert derogatory statement here>>" :D

Yes but I'd imagine people would like to play around a bit.

I'd also have Bush vow to nuke China and France and then play a game of twister in the oval office with his advisers only with the names of random places put on the dots so that the circles the winner is touching will be the next places to be nuked. :D

I'd have him launch into a jaunty tune. :p

Pat Robertson launches into a snazzy rendition of 'It's Raining Men'.

:)

Bush sings "Ridin' Dirty" :D

Bush sings "Ridin' Dirty" :D

And Gore "White 'n Nerdy" :D

You just have to make sure it isn't one of those cases when it is wrong.

I'd have Stephen Harper admit to eating babies.

Nixon sings Weird Al's "I'm a genius in France" :D

Bush sings "Be prepared" after deciding to invade the middle east.

Nixon sings Weird Al's "I'm a genius in France" :D

And what for Clinton?

And what for Clinton?

Erm... the toungue tied song (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l1CHVxyonU4) from Red Dwarf. :D

Cool.

Now all we need is Kerry, Hillary, and Jeb.

I thought the scrolling marquee on the GO train was enough of an admission. ;)

Bush sings "Ridin' Dirty" :D

This is what Bush should sing: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-4503587312547179125&q=SNL+eddie&hl=en

:D

I bet going back in time and having all three Axis leaders during WWII participate in the "what is love" song would be hilarious. :D:p

Nope, we need to hear it from his mouth.

I'd have the Iranian president go "Nah nah nah nah na na! Bush can't stop me! Nananananan!"

There's so many things, but I suppose the best would be something along the lines of making Bush jr and his cabinet announce on world TV

"We're incompetent fools and we're stealing all your tax dollars to give our friends."

Nope, we need to hear it from his mouth.

Someone could splice together a series of words from different speeches to achieve the same thing. Then broadcast it on CBC News at 6. :)

I'd make them sing some of the songs from West Side Story. The Reps can be the Jets and the Dems can be the Sharks
