Jack Abramoff and Boris Badenov: Separated at Birth!

It now appears that Jack Abramoff is actually the younger sibling of former terrorist and no-goodnik: Boris Badenov.



Note the similar last names, wardrobe and desire to suck up to a Fearless Leader.

As of the posting of this article, Boris Badenov has not replied to repeated requests for an interview.

The government of Pottsylvania, an ally in the War On Terror, has publicly denied any connection to Jack Abramoff or the Republican bribery scandal. Furthermore, they claim that photos of Abramoff and Mr. Big are strictly a coincidence.

1. But, Jack never smiles. eom

2. Badenov has not replied to interview requests

Not surprising; would YOU want to answer for such a family black sheep as Jack? Please leave poor Boris to his private shame, you jackals of the press!

3. Hey, inquiring minds want to know!

This could be HUGH!!!111

[Dunvegan]

4. Of course they're the same person...

...think about it: Have you ever seen Abramoff and Badenov in the same cartoon at the same time?

9. yw.

How have you been?

[MuseRider]

10. Doing well.

Getting our state group up and running finally, it is exciting.

I am worried about Alito and the state of our country, I don't like that feeling much but there it is. There have been many things to be worried about the last 5 years haven't there? It is wearing.

How did that documentary you were working on go?

12. She is still looking for funding.

As for Alito, I'm concerned about it... but I won't panic until they pass a flag-burning ammendment.

That will be my signal that it's time to get the heck out of the country. At that point, there is nothing left fighting for.

8. Why do all these Republican assholes have no lips.

Lipless assholes that hate the world.

13. This goes in my "wish I'd thought of that first" file!!

It's right beside my "Mr. Know-it-All" file, which is much, much larger, of course!!

[brainshrub]

14. Don't feel bad.

I wish I had thought of this when it the pictures of Abramoff's wardrobe first surfaced. At the time, the best I could come up with was this:



Boris Badenov is far more appropriate, however I missed the window when this would have been most effective.

15. Timing. It's the key to all comedy.

There's a great Johnny Carson story on "timing," but it's not the same when written as when told.

All comedy is topical. Sometimes you have to run something else in front of it to make it timely, the set up.

I like your SPY v SPY comparison. It's good. Keep it up. I'm a man of letters, but not only is one picture worth a 1000 words, but who the hell will read a 1000 words any more? BAM! You have to hit them with the idea in one easily digestable moment.
