Who the hell is Lee Mercer Jr., anyway?

[Danger Mouse]

It's driving me nuts. I feel like I've heard the name before.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

1. He was last seen boarding a UFO with Elvis back in the mid 1980s

[Starbucks Anarchist]

2. He's proving "Jeb Bush is all in his house with disease."

http://www.mercerforpresident2008.com/home.html

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[Danger Mouse]

11. I found Jeb Bush in my underwear drawer the other day.

Pervert.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

16. Was he trying to steal that, too?

[Danger Mouse]

19. No, he was just taking long, slow whifs.

Maybe I should vote for Mercer. He might be able to help me there.

[fizzgig]

22. oh ffs!

:puke:

[Danger Mouse]

23. i love you too, baby

:hi:

[fizzgig]

38. get away from me

:P

[laylah]

41. Oh my!

We need to discuss your taste in men, honey :rofl:

[Starbucks Anarchist]

36. See, now you just made it awkward.

:rofl:

[CreekDog]

3. a guy running for president and i just asked myself this 5 minutes ago

here's his website:
http://www.mercerforpresident2008.com/c14f7f9dd9bbed555232a5cb8defd6f7.html?PHPSESSID=f39f89cea36fa39c2615e34a9edcfae7

of course, reading it, you won't necessarily learn more about his quest as it is unintelligible, though legible.

[Danger Mouse]

8. My brain hurts.

:cry:

[AlCzervik]

4. He's going to prove America is America.

[CreekDog]

9. it's about time!

you have a Lee Mercer avatar!

:applause:

[Kutjara]

5. An insane man for an insane country.

His time has come.

[Danger Mouse]

15. You know what? In some ways, I think we truly do deserve a madman.

[emilyg]

32. We have one now.

[Danger Mouse]

35. We have a sociopath. What we need is a complete whacko jacko from cloud cuckoo land.

=D

[Critters2]

43. Then Lee Mercer, Jr. is your man!! nt

[Muttocracy]

6. candidate for pres., rather out of the mainstream

thought this was a satire or financial hoax when I first saw it on DU
http://mercerforpresident2008.com

in part because google found his name on a bunch of financial scam posts but there is a listed phone # at that name and address and I'm afraid it's for real if the phone interview is for real

7. If you don't understand this, you are an idiot

1. The United States Federal Congress has encouraged me to want to become President of the United States so that I can do what the President of the United States of America is supposed to do and complete the federal and military government biography and autobiography in development in Eye Spy Community-Military Intelligence (All Three) Business and Commerce Intelligence Education across the board National and International.


yeah, neither do i. :shrug:

[Danger Mouse]

10. He just wants to do what the president is supposed to do!

Let me get out my check book...

[Kutjara]

17. Reads a lot like just about every spam email I've ever received.

A whole pile of non-sequiturs, engineered to get past heuristic spam detectors. I'm surprised part of his platform isn't about "Buying V1A6RA."

[Danger Mouse]

21. You missed #71 on his list of reasons for running for president:

'P3N|5 enlargement'

[Kutjara]

25. Well, in that case...

...he's got my vote!

[Danger Mouse]

28. There was something about a Nigerian prince in there too or something along those lines...

[Kutjara]

31. Damn! This guy is really connected.

I hear those Nigerian guys are the ones to talk to if you want unlimited wealth for little or no effort. That could be the answer to America's debt crisis once and for all!

[Muttocracy]

27. see my post #6 for some related financial spam

it's a complicated world this man runs

[Fire Walk With Me]

30. Holy shit! The Nigerian scammers are going to steal the presidency!

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

12. A "Road Scholar" that was bestowed upon him by the combined Navy and Marines at West Point

Fifth paragraph from the bottom at his campaign website:

http://www.mercerforpresident2008.com/61ef56b176271955f090407ba0f48cbd.html

"I won road scholar from the United States Navy/United States Marine Corp. at West Point."

[Danger Mouse]

14. Ah, so he's one of the fabled Navalrines, is he?

He got his Road Scholarship from the Grand Peanut of the Illuminati himself, I'm sure.
This guy makes Lyndon Larouche look put together and reasonable.

[Muttocracy]

29. is LaRouche still out there? n/t

[BrotherBuzz]

40. But, but, but his Bios says he's stalled and might sue to complete his debriefing

:crazy:

I am in a stalled police debriefing with the Houston Police Department waiting for me to sue to complete my debriefing for my background biography with them in the United States Army Military Intelligence Academy Camp Bullis San Antonio, Texas The University of Texas ROTC to West Point Military Academy U.S. Navy doctorate degree in Police Science.

[Critters2]

44. I'd just as soon he keeps his briefs on, myself. nt

[BrotherBuzz]

50. LOL, I don't disagree

Still, some brave soul should should start a poll; Boxer, brief, bikini, thong, or boxer/briefs? :rofl:

[Chovexani]

13. The only man who can save America.

[Danger Mouse]

18. With his 2000 tapes and his proof that Bush is a death order...

he may be our only hope.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

20. If he exists (and I think he's the figment of some wise guy's imagination)

I'd probably vote for him for no other reason than to contribute to throwing our entire political system into chaos, where it belongs. And I think chaos would be a sure fire thing if this guy were in power.

[Muttocracy]

24. see post #6 and adjust your hotwire n/t

[Danger Mouse]

26. he could be our very own caligula.

[CreekDog]

33. what's caligula?

sorry, in some classes i didn't pay attention. :shrug:

[Danger Mouse]

34. third roman emperor. completely nuts.

[CreekDog]

37. oh thank you

somebody is copying his legacy...and i don't mean Lee Mercer! :yoiks:

[Kutjara]

39. He's rocking an Idi Amin stylee in the photo on his website.

If he starts wearing field marshall uniforms full of medals, we'll know we're in deep(er) shit.

[Danger Mouse]

42. Look on the bright side....

we may enter a new era of american culinary achievement!

[Kutjara]

45. Human Fat Burger!

I'm going to register the domain name right now, just in case.

[Frank Cannon]

46. He's an obviously mentally ill person that DUers make fun of

'Cause, you know, it's such a blast to make fun of the mentally ill.

[SPKrazy]

47. when they put up a web site

and declare they are running for president, then it becomes fair game i guess.

come on, read the site, it's humorous.

it's also sad that people's brains can get so scrambled up.

if he joins DU as he's been invited to, how will people react then?

[Frank Cannon]

49. I saw the website

Maybe it's just because I've worked with the mentally ill, but I don't find this guy's site to be all that funny. I actually think it's sad. I can only imagine the maelstrom going on in his head if this is the best he can express himself in words. He's makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

Sorry to be a killjoy about this. I really DO have a sense of humor and don't mind making fun of people who truly deserve it--usually the arrogant and powerful. I just don't see the comedy here.

[sniffa]

48. DUers sicken me.

Vote Mercer.

[Dr. Strange]

51. He made an appearance in "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?"

The book, not the movie. In it, he goes by the name Wilbur Mercer. And, NO, he is not a replicant!

[robertpaulsen]

52. You've never heard of him. And you've never been hotwired.

Just keep believing that nobody in the United States Government National and International (All Three) is actually 1. Praying For Persons to die with electronics, 2. Killing the person’s heart with an electric snake hot-wire hookup and 3. Poisoning Persons with Cancer, and you and your family (All Three) will be just fine.
