3. This will twist their brains for hours.
Ten bucks when they realize who Jack Bauer really is (and also that he isn't real,) they all stop watching 24.

8. Tommy Douglas is the most famous Canadian ever
Maybe Anthony Weiner will one day be his American equal. The spot is open, but people with balls need to fill it (and succeed)

20. They already have.
They masturbate over pictures of Jack Bauer, and if anyone ever mentions that he's played by Kiefer Sutherland they fly into a frothing rage.

14. LOL. He's not an asshole, he's an actor. You know, make believe for TV.
Just because ignorant Republicans think he's real, doesn't mean you should too.

16. Socialist
No really he is a Socialist, I never could understand the RW's love for him. He is a member of New Democratic Party in Canada, the New Democratic Party is a social democracy party who's international affiliation is Socialist International

18. Maybe a Chip Off The Old Block
His dad did some outstanding stuff back in the 1970s to help end the war in Vietnam.

Here's an example

http://documentaries.about.com/od/revie2/fr/FTA.htm

I watched FTA in April or May for the first time in over 35 years. I actually remembered the joke and told my wife the punch line at the beginning of the skit.... Soldier, do you have change for a dollar?...


It's nice to see Kiefer step out.

21. 24
It needs to be said while the right will use 24 to justify their tacts If you have actully watched
the show over the years there have been things the right would not like.24 Is full of conspiracys.
They would not like It being not just arabs as villains.2 Black Democratic Presidents.The Only time
a decent Republican has been on the show Is their version of Hillary.And they had their own Version
of Bush as a Villian.

Kiefer Sutherland had long ago said he considers 24 to be a soap opera on acid and In reality does
not approve of torture.During early seasons of 24 he did ads urging people to not confuse muslims on the show with real life ones.And remember back In year 2 they had arabs and Timothy Mcveigh types as pawns of corporate conspirators.

Kiefer IS certainly no Jon Voight type even though the right tries to use the show.

This past season once the original right wing cocreator left after the writers strike they had a good
year.Ironic They actully had Jon Voight paly himself and treated him as a Villian.
