I know how to make Republicans shut up and endorse Obama's adress to schoolchildren

[DFW]

Just have him promise to read "My Pet Goat" aloud.

Hey, it worked for the last guy.........

[renate]

1. so, you're suggesting using logic on these people?

Good one! :rofl:

[DFW]

2. Well, no, I wouldn't go THAT far

But I confess to not having read "My Pet Goat" cover to cover, either.......

3. You have to read this.

I am tortured with Hannity every day by someone I work with (the boss's kid so what can ya do?) Some guy named Mark filled in for Hannity and a caller handed him his ass.

It went something like this........

CALLER - Hi Mark, you're a great American.

MARK - Thanks, so are you. What do you have on your mind?

CALLER - Mark, I just want to say how concerned I am about the president talking to school kids.

MARK - Yeah that's right. I think the guy has been on TV about 600 times in 7 months. No wonder the economy is a mess, he's never on the job. Why does he need to take the kids out of class for this?

CALLER - Well, yeah. There no telling what will happen if the president talks to the kids! I mean look what happened last time he talked to the kids!?

MARK - Yeah....

CALLER - Well yeah, I mean last time he talked to the kids the terrorist attacked America with airplanes. And the next thing you know we are all losing our jobs!! We don't need the president running all over the country. The president needs to to keep his butt in Washington and do his JOB. If he would stay at home and get his job done for 5 minutes maybe we wouldn't have these problems !!!

MARK - You do know Barack Obama is president now, not George Bush?

CALLER - What?

MARK - The president - we had an election and it's a different guy now.

CALLER - Really?

MARK - Yeah.

CALLER - Well which one was talking to the kids when the terrorists attached New York - this one or the last one?

MARK - the last one.

CALLER - Now see what's what makes me mad. These presidents never learn from history. You remember when the president's dad was president and he talked to the kids - next thing you know that Saddam Hussein was trying to take our freedom away over there in Iraq and we had to go over there and defend ourselves in Desert Storm. Then, was it the last president? Well he went talking to kids and while he was actually there Saddam tried to take our freedoms away by flying planes into our buildings !!! I don't know maybe it's OK if this one talks to the kids since Saddam is dead now - you know? But look every time the president talks to the kids we get attacked. You'd think they would .....

MARK - (cutting him off) sorry I have to go to a hard break. We'll be back.

4. Did that really happen?

I gotta get that tape.

[SmileyRose]

5. Yeah, I thought I was going to lose it right there in the office.

It was on Friday, somewhere around 5pm.

[renate]

6. oh that is AWESOME

:applause:

Thank you! You must have been in hysterics when you heard that!

[DFW]

7. That is beyond hilarious!

I wish I could hear a tape of that. It must as good (or close) as the tape of the two
Canadian comedians convincing Palin that Nicholas Sarkozy was on the phone telling her
how hot his wife was in bed, and Palin STILL didn't get it. This Hannity substitute seems
to have an equal grasp on reality.
