What did he say?

He said the President is near.




Whom would play the other parts?

Governor William J. Le Petomane... John Mc Cain.

Lili Von Shtupp... Sarah Palin.

Hedley Lamarr... Karl Rove.

Mongo... ?

Taggert... ?

Others... ?

2. Hedley Lamarr would be played by Lady Lindsey. Bush could play Mongo.

Actually, Blazing Saddles was a real breakthrough film that skewered racism. Then along came Raygun and his ilk glorified racism.

I hope our next president is an Asian-American atheist lesbian woman. Yes, we can!

3. Taggert, I think, is the role Joe Liebermann was born to play.

"What did he say?"

"He said the the President is near!"

"No! I said the President is a N (gong)!



That part was soooooo funny. Of course I substituted Sheriff for President.
