So I'm at the county fair today... |
|
One of my friends always sets up a booth and sells discount sunglasses and purses. I ran the booth for her for a couple of hours this morning because she had an appointment this morning. I could smell popcorn cooking so I sent one of my kids to investigate and they bring me a bag. So as I'm eating I notice that the bag is stamped with G.O.P. on the front, in pale green letters. Apparently the Republicans from our county had a booth set up on the other side of the building and were handing out free popcorn. Well, I couldn't help it...I had my oldest daughter watch our booth and marched over to the Republican's table and promptly plunked the bag down. I said,"I'm sorry, I can't eat this" and the man said "Is there something wrong with it?" and I said "No, but I just can't swallow ANYTHING that comes from the republicans anymore!" I walked away and while he just stood there, gaping. Then I giggled my ass off until my friend got there. I sent my kids over to the county Democrats booth to pick up stickers to put over the "G.O.P" on their bags. My son picked a Hilary08 sticker and my daughters chose Obama.

I'm still giggling over it...but then again, my sense of humor is kind of lame.

Everything they have touched has gone to hell.

13. I read this to a friend |
|
she said: Too much oil and not enough heat. My reply: Isn't that a description of the Republicans?
