God I love the old Batman show. I would vote for mr Penguin over any politician :)

That's so spot-on that it depresses me.
Also, John McCain would make a good penguin.

Penguin had a couple problems though...

1) he's not a good judge in character, his henchmen always suck

2) he like most villains always leaves before his plan is complete....when you don't supervise a plan all the way through it leaves room for screw ups

Sounds like we've just had 8 years of Penguin.

Well all henchman in Batman suffer from the same problems. They like to dance around on the edge of a shot waiting for their turn to get beat down. It's not sportsman-like to attack all at once.

And as any James Bond villain will tell you, it just isn't the same if you actually oversee your entire overly meticulous plan personally. Same goes for execution devices that are painfully slow. ;)

Bush could never match the penguin in wits. He's more like Bane, only without the super-strength.

Wow, welcome to several weeks ago! I posted that when it first came up. :) Very appropriate to remind people of it, though. :D

I was driving yesterday and stopped at a light when I overheard the redneck in a pick up behind me, upon spotting my veteran plates and Obama sticker, yell out, "A veteran for Obama?! What the hell?". I really wanted to get out and explain to him how certifiably insane, erratic and downright on death's door McCain is nevermind about the possible nightmare of Palin being even VP. *shudder* But I figured it wouldn't do any good so I just had a good laugh at his ignorant confusion.

Because everyone knows that if you've fought in a war, or served in the military it automatically makes you a life-long Republican. Because...wait, what?
:p

Having your own opinions is overrated!

That and how McCain can somehow be a better Commander in Chief because of his service? There were, and are, plenty of stupid people in the military. I know that for a fact. Military service does not equate presidential leadership.

I knew right away McCain was not the one to be the CiC when he said we can "win" in Iraq. We already "won" in Iraq: we conquered the government, deposed their leaders and eliminated their military. That's victory. We are now peacekeeping and nation building and there is no "win" in that. McCain's ignorance of that fundamental situation is appalling. :D

I've heard some of them leave the military, too. ;)

*runs like hell, yelling "I kid, I kid!"*

I'm just all warm and sunny that it was you. I knew you cared!
