A Pennsylvania Dutch joke from Edwards Supporters to Obama Supporters
Edited on Wed Apr-23-08 02:05 PM by Stop Cornyn
An Amish farmer is going for a walk when he notices a man drinking from his pond, with his hand.

The Amish man shouts: "Trink das wasser nicht. Die kuhen haben dahin gesheissen" (which means "Don't drink the water, the cows have shit in it").

The man shouts back: "I'm from New York and just down here campaigning for Hillary, I can't understand you. Please speak in English."

The Amish man says: "Use two hands, you'll get more."

8. Just because you missed the vote
doesn't give you the right to try to change the outcome after the fact.

9. Because Amish are all Obama supporters?
And they want Hillary's volunteers to die a painful death?

Dumbest joke of the year so far.

14. Yes, all Amish are Obama supporters, and want Hillary people to die painfully.
Life is just one big angry insult to you, isn't it?

Edited on Wed Apr-23-08 03:39 PM by madinmaryland
rather than some crude joke that only serves as flame bait and has been posted over at Freeperland.

34. Living in the middle of an Amish community
Edited on Wed Apr-23-08 05:36 PM by sybylla
and having German ancestors myself, I have to say I LOL at that one.

And knowing my Amish neighbors as well as I do including the fact that they don't vote or get involved in politics except on they rarest circumstances, I think they'd find it rather funny themselves. It wouldn't matter what candidate you used. They do like to laugh a bit at us English - especially city folk.

40. No sense of humor
Jeeze - some people have no sense of humor.

It's a damn joke.

There is a huge swath of people, both O & C supporters that need to be told the folowing classic line from the movie "Stripes" (with Bill Murray):

"Lighten up Francis."
