You echo my thoughts and feelings. Empires rise and fall. I just hoped this one would last a bit longer that it seems it will. I guess it's China's turn again. I just hope we haven't blown our shot (as a species - I think we have as a nation) at space travel and interstellar colonization. If we're doomed to remain on this planet, then we are doomed to eventual extinction.

Wouldn't they need some humor first to lose? Sorry, but that was pathetic. I'm all for a good Obama joke, but at least raise the bar to something requiring some thought. (Yeah, I know Gary, its Mike's joke.

It just occurred to me. Nixon was the man who opened up the American/Chinese trading 'partnership,' and he's the man who took us off the gold standard - opening the way for massive inflation.

You mean Gaskey and Stan? Can't come up with a decent joke so they have to recycle Bush jokes? :laugh:

I think there's plenty of material to get crafty.. Mike's just being lazy and taking the easy road. ;)

Did you think it was pathetic when the very same joke was being told of Bush?

Too bad they're not making jokes about LBJ's wife. That would be much more acceptable in my eyes - you could say that a post on the Bird is worth two on the Bush.

And just how long have you been waiting to use that one? :-D

I'm pretty sure I would not like to live in a world in which I would never be offended. I am absolutely certain I don't want to live in a world in which you would never be offended. Dave

Or rather, does a pathetic joke stop being pathetic with a simple target change?

I see the person who replaced Bush with OBAMA, used all capitals. It worked better with Bush, because, well, you believed he was that stupid.

Sorry, but this did the rounds widely as a Bush joke.

It was funnier when told about Bush, but not for political reasons, because you could believe Bush saying it.

Before O! the same joke told with B!

I am willing to consider the possibility that he worked hard to appear stupid, to put his opponents off guard.

It was funnier then, because I hadn't heard it before.
