Obama Girls to Adopt Bill Clinton
In one of the more bizarre twists in recent political memory, Bill Clinton will be returning to The White House - not as ‘First Husband’ but as ‘First Pet’. At the same time, we have the answer to the most-asked question of the transition period: “What kind of dog will the Obama girls choose?”

And in a bit of historical irony, when hearing of Malia and Sasha Obama’s choice, both the President-Elect and Neo-Conservative icon Bill Kristol uttered identical sentiments, likely the only time this will ever occur, with independent responses of: “One thing’s for sure. If he’s gonna stay, he’s getting fixed.”

8. Thanks...
...for sharing your obvious happiness...

p.s. not knowing you, I hope when you see something you like, you will share positive thoughts...

negative criticism is fair enough, so long as you're willing to show appreciation when you like something.

Happy Holidays (seriously.)

33. unsolicited friendly advice :)
For your next DU thread, post incendiary satire about Palin, Bush, McCain or some other republican. When you amass thousands of posts and a few DUzys then you can upgrade to making fun of our Dem favorites, but be very careful. I will be among the flamers if you try to make fun of Obama :)

42. Don't worry...
I consider myself a Clinton Democrat. In my mind, he's the best we've had in my lifetime.

While I supported Hillary in the primaries, I've become grateful to those who had more vision than myself. The more I see of our next President, the more I believe he will be among the best ever -- and thank God, because we need a great one now.

But I don't apologize for poking fun at anyone, myself included. I didn't create Clinton's reputation. I didn't vote for him as a faithful husband, but as a damn good President.

I will refrain from attacking Obama until he is in office. I am unpopular for suggesting others withhold judgment, even about Rick Warren (as you can see in my journal), until he is in office and we see what actions he takes.

When I agree, I'll say so. When I don't, I'll say so. I appreciate your loyalty to the Party, and I share it. But when my own mother is wrong, even she taught me to speak up.

I hope you'll give me the chance to prove to you that, whether we agree or not, I do my best to be fair. Like our President-Elect, I like to hear reasonable arguments against me, and can be shown when I'm wrong.

As far as satire against Palin, Bush, McCain, etc., if you check out my website (link at the bottom of this post), I think you'll be more comfortable with where I'm coming from.

But I do appreciate the advice (seriously). As a Newbie, I apologize if you feel I over-stepped.

Hoping for dialogue down the road... DB

47. I know, let's start a flamebait animal neutering thread!
I think I recall one a few years ago. Some folks were upset that animals got neutered and it wasn't "natural."

It will give us something to get all worked up over until Obama is inaugurated...:evilgrin:

14. And tell those assholes over at FR that LetFreedumring says hello!
the handle I used to fuck with them before the election! The one they were too stupid to understand! The one that should have been a red flag of an interloper, but again they were too stupid to understand! And the messages I left, congratulating Obama on his victories in Virginia and Florida, but again they were too stupid to understand!!!!

You got some dumb-fucking comrades over there! Tell them I said so!!!!! And give them a hug ( or bathroom-stall foot-rub ) for me?

17. My guess is this jackoff is already too busy with dads latest edition of Hustler
the pubes are still growin'....he's probably sweating and grunting over his keyboard right now ( dads going to need a replacement one soon ) still pissed about getting stood up at the prom due to the fact that he has an extremely small dick and all of the guys laughed at him in gym class, and the girls found out about it so they made fun of him, too!

Sorry!!! But hey..he can always blame God for that one!:D

29. This, coming from a 'liberal'
a word that means 'tolerant'?

hearing is one thing, understanding is another.

You say you're a democrat, but you show the temperament of an Evangelical Republican who just struck out with the boys' choir.

Appreciate your offer, but no thanks...,

but really, thanks for bringing the post back to the top of the page for those just logging on to DU...

31. You miss the whole point of me kicking this for you...
the fact is...I kind of feel sorry for people like you, so every now and then I like to give people ( and I use that term VERY LOOSELY ) like you your so-called "day in the sun". You just sit back and enjoy the fact that you have a thread of yours of this nature that made it this far and ....who knows? maybe it's something you can tell your grand-kids about ( god help us all if you decide to spawn, but I'm just saying ). Something that you actually...you know, achieved in life!!!!

Hey! just think of it in those terms! " Well kids...one time I went to this website and managed to get a pathetic thread of mine kicked"!

kids: "Shut the fuck up, grandpa, and give us a Werthers"!

I was beginning to think that after 'happy hour' the only people who posted are the ones who can't be happy unless they try to make someone feel worse than they do about themselves...

As a Newbie, I appreciate you giving me faith in the DU community.

Happy Holidays to you and yours.

I mean if your standard of having faith in people is whether they laugh at your own jokes --well, that's kind of sad actually. :rofl:

32. My apologies...
sincerely.

Didn't mean to offend, just was taken by surprise when (what I thought was) obvious satire drew such venom. There's too much out there that being said with obvious hate. That's where I try to direct criticism. Just got the impression there are those who only show up here to trash people. You are obviously not one of them, and quite frankly, I appreciate you calling my attention to my own lack of patience.

If there are more like you out there, I know I'm going to like it here, and certainly hope to earn respect of those whose views I share...

Happy Holidays, and thanks for putting me in my place in a constructive way.

I'm new, but hopefully I'll be a quick study.

For example, didn't know there was a deadline for the shut-ins to get their jollies.

Hope to run into you again soon. Thanks for speeding my education.

46. Keep on doing your thing ...
... there are alot of folks here who take themselves waaaay too seriously and like to be the first to sign up for the Pitchfork Bridgade. My opinion is, if we can't make fun of ourselves, we're no better than the other side.

Anyway, keep on writing - your audience will find you, and those who want to piss on your parade can get bent.


:hi: HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO YOU TOO!!
