Hell, number two was my response after 9/11 about Afghanistan. I said I was looking forward to vacationing in, and I quote, "Lake-f*cking-Afghanistan."

Oh, I know. Just pointing out to people that even if you agree with a few, it doesn't make you a part of the elephant herd. :)

Got it. Actully, I pulled these off the net because I got lazy while crafting one of my own Republican jokes, that goes something like this:

How many Republicans does it take to screw in a light bulb?

Four: One to deny that science can create light, which is, as the Bible tells us, is God given; one to argue that light bulbs are an unconstitutional infringement on the right to bear arms, since they shed light on concealed weapons; one to collect fees from poor people for using the light while denying that taxes are being imposed; and one to claim that light bulbs are treasonous because they expose the torture in Gitmo.

You call the structure in which you live a "hoooss."
You or your son have a Roman numeral after your name.
You belong to the same fraternity as your fahthah and grahndfahthah.
You don't understand all the fuss about George Allen -- what's wrong with a deerhead in a mailbox? It's rather amusing, actually.

I hate to say it, but nearly every one of them were true, and I laughed at this one. Good work.

The false one that stands out was about Hootie and the Blowfish. I wouldn't call them the end of racism in America. I'd call them the evidence of the end of rock and roll.
