    ... and yet this joke was posted here ages ago and used Bush. What it really highlights is how swiftly the mighty have fallen. Is this an early indication of how Obama is perceived?

    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. ;)

        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.

          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.

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

                  The Department Of Defense briefed the president this morning. They told OBAMA that 2 Brazilian soldiers were killed in Iraq To everyone's surprise, all the color drained from Obama's face. Then he collapsed onto his desk, head in his hands, visibly shaken, almost in tears. Finally, he composed himself and asked, 'Just how many is a brazilian?' This is especially funny since he obviously has no understanding of billion or trillion either.

                  Mike - typical white guy. The USA does have universal healthcare, but you have to pay for it. D'oh. Thomas Mann - "Tolerance becomes a crime when applied to evil." The NYT - my leftist brochure. Calling an illegal alien an “undocumented immigrant” is like calling a drug dealer an “unlicensed pharmacist”. God doesn't believe in atheists, therefore they don't exist.

                  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.

                    No, not really. The only thing that makes it funny is the relationship between brazilian an some very large number names, which sound similar. That combined with the vast sums of money being spent by the Obama administration makes it topical. With Bush, it would be a stretch... It really is all right to laugh at someone other than Bush you know...

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

                                    Jesus is dead. Dead people are incapable of love, and I'm incapable of loving dead people. I can love the memory of a dead person, but not the dead person itself. If you're referring to your imaginary friend Jesus, then tell him that if he wants my love he'll first need to deposit 100 million tax-free USD in my checking account. Then I'll be happy to kiss his invisible ass like you do.
