(Mike) Tyson thinking of fighting women, (and voting GOP)

[wageslave71]

At the press conference, Tyson posed for photos with fans, signed autographs and campaigned for Maryland U.S. Senate candidate Michael Steele.

Tyson, wearing a white and blue Steele for U.S. Senate T-shirt, said he used to believe black Republicans were "sellouts." But Tyson said he changed his mind after researching the Maryland lieutenant governor.

"We have to open our eyes more," Tyson said, as he pointed to his T-shirt.

Having Tyson public supporting you is almost as bad as having Cheney campaign for you. He says he's done some research. I couldn't quit laughing. Who's next? OJ Simpson? Michael Jackson?

Maybe, this is the October Surprise. LOL

1. I thought Tyson already fought women. And how in the world would

that vegetable do any research?

[wageslave71]

2. It occurred to me...

that he already has a bit of experience fighting women.

7. Welcome to DU. Maybe he thinks women's boxing allows biting.

17. He lost in Indianapolis

3. He's already fought plenty of women. Just not in the ring.

It's a totally moot point though, because no state would sanction a fight like that.

4. Makes snese to me, Mike's a nutural born Pub. n/t

5. "Vote Michael Steele...

...or I'll come and eat your children."

I'd hope Steele has enough sense to be embarrassed that a mentally handicapped (and then brain-damaged) ex-boxer who was convicted of rape, who bit off a chunk of an opponent's ear, and then screamed "I want to eat your children" at a press conference was vocally supporting him... though I'm not holding my breath. :rofl:

6. I'm thinking about sending Tyson

a Patrick McHenry T-shirt, if I can get my hands on one soon.

13. You forgot his other great quote . . .

"I'll fuck you til you love me"

[progdonkey]

14. Holy Shit! I've never heard that one before....

Okay, you win for best quote. :rofl:

[NJCher]

8. Try to see it from his point of view

Hey, after you've eaten somebody's ear, all that's left is to vote republican and beat on women.

10. Wrestling women is Andy Kaufman redux. It was a way for him to engage

in public frottage.

So, whatever . . .

[FreeStateDemocrat]

11. Not sure, but isn't Steele dummy's ex-in-law and uncle to his children?

[qanda]

12. Yes, Tyson is Michael Steele's ex brother-in-law

Why would he say that he had to do research to support him unless he's trying to pull the wool over people's eyes.

[Vinca]

15. Good political move - having a lunatic, wife beater out in front

for you. Makes you want to run out and vote for Steele, doesn't it?

[hippiechick]

16. Too many hits to the head ....

... but beating up women - for money or not - and voting Republican DO tend to go hand in hand, though ....

[mcg]

19. Mike.... STOP. HELPING.
