Would You Like Some Old Cheese With That?
For the first time ever I took the time to listen to the Prickly City podcast, with your hosts Scott Stantis and his man-servant, Toby. He spends a good chunk of the podcast explaining how all the Democrats do is WHHIIIIINNNNNEEE - they're creatively bankrupt, they're out of fresh ideas.
So what does Stantis do today? He makes fun of John Kerry. What's that stink in the air? I think it's called "irony."
What's strange is that John Kerry, the man to get the second most votes ever in a Presidential election, never really went away. In fact there were some Democrats that were complaining that he was still hogging too much of the spotlight after being cheated out of the 2004 election. Stantis and Toby spend some of the podcast talking about their little debate on election night predicting how much KERRY would win by. Ha ha ha. That's the funniest thing Stantis has ever said. Does anyone buy him thinking Kerry had a chance? Please.
But you see this whole week of strips had a purpose: to kick Dems in the booty so they'll offer more of a resistance to the Republican party. You see, simply opposing everything George Bush does isn't enough. Democrats have to offer up solutions to everything Bush has screwed up. In other words, Stantis and his Republicans are the Seahawks, demanding that Bill Cowher explain how his Steelers are going to win the Super Bowl. And if he doesn't, he's a WHHHIIINNNNERRRR. Sorry Scoots - you elected this moron, you deal with the outcome.
What's interesting is that Stantis thinks he's somehow helping to foster genuine debate in his effort to quell the Bushie Brigade. Does making fun of John Kerry and Howard Dean and Hillary Clinton really do any of that? I guess it could, but not the way Stantis does it. Maybe in his world calling Michael Moore fat is extending an olive branch - with the purpose of fattening him up with olives.
Oh, and one quick note about John Kerry and his lack of ideas: remember when he said the invasion of Iraq was the "wrong war, wrong place, wrong time?" Apparently so does at least on leading neo-con. Funny how those big minded conservatives seem to come around to the liberal way of thinking when they're proven wrong. I mean the next thing you know Bush will try to hand over our port security to a nation where two of the 9/11 hijackers were based out of, and those poor conservatives like Stantis will cry foul...oops, I guess that's another story for 2 weeks from now.
One last note about the podcast. There's a very bizarre moment in where Scott Stantis talks about how the political group Coretta Scott King fought to the DEATH against was...the Democrats? Believe it or not I actually listened to the rest of the broadcast after that, only to be rewarded with Toby reading a fan letter that offers to fellate Mr. Stantis, or something to that effect. Some people might call it a "plant." And yes, I'm some people.
Tomorrow, my brush with greatness, as Mr. Stantis or Toby or another lacky responds to my email. That's right, the first ever Shrubville teaser! At least it'll save me from guessing how much time Stantis spends this upcoming week on Dick Cheney shooting an elderly man in the face.

No fair on the teaser, I can't wait!

Aw! I hate teasers!
Only few more hours to find out what your question was and what Scott's answer is...
