H.N. Fiddlebottoms is a dastardly Republican...

...and I have proof.

Typical of his debating style, showing strong correlation with tactics seen in this latest election, the evidence is incontrovertible.

As a communist message board, how best do we deal with this infiltrator, this running dog of the capitalist oppressors?

One of my proudest moments.
"Plenty of girls and bands and slogans and lots of hoopla, but remember, no politics. Issues confuse people!"

Actually, the most disturbing aspect of the full (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=LhnBrMlqzEY) episodes (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Ez4p2gGYFkA) is that after Batman wins he immediately hands power back to Mayor Linseed.
He spends the entire campaign saying things like, "I'm convinced that the American electorate is too mature to be taken in by cheap vaudeville trickery," but he's only running because the mayor has called him in as a pinch candidate. I can't think of any clearer way to piss straight in the face of Democracy than that.

There's some brilliant quotes in that, especially when Batman pointedly looks at the camera...

"I'm convinced that the (turn to camera) American electorate is too mature to be taken in by cheap vaudeville trickery. After all, if our national leaders were elected on the basis of tricky slogans, brass bands and pretty girls, our country would be (slows down) in a (looks straight at camera) a... terrible... mess... wouldn't it?"

I'm mulling between firing squad and gulag.
