GOP Mad-Libs: Response to Scandal

Filed in National by on December 10, 2008

The investigation continues regarding [name of person], who [is from the same state as / served on a committee with / once played basketball with] Obama. Obama is not implicated in the investigation, nor has he been accused of any wrongdoing; he stated that he was unaware of what [name of person] had been up to. However, the GOP was quick to grasp at straws pounce nonetheless.

“The serious nature of the crimes listed by federal prosecutors raises questions about the interaction with [name of person], President-elect Obama and other high ranking officials who will be working for the future president,” said Rep. Eric Cantor of Virginia, the new GOP House whip.

As to what questions it raised, Cantor hadn’t the foggiest, but he was really hoping he would come up with some.

Added Robert M. “Mike” Duncan, chairman of the Republican National Committee, “President-elect Barack Obama‘s comments on the matter are insufficient at best.”

 Duncan also noted that, as RNC chair, he felt that all of Obama’s comments regarding any situation were “insufficient at best”, and suggested any future comments would also be regarded as, at best, insufficient.

    Anyone who thinks that Republicans are going to be anything other than combative, obstructionists douche nozzles as President Obama sets about to clean after Bush needs to get their head examined.

    In response. Dave Burris found Jason’s comment to be “insufficient at best.”

    Mike Matthews believes Jason’s comment just raises more questions.

    It was during the Clinton years when the Republican party taught me that you don’t have to count someone as President if you don’t like them. So for the past 8 years, my America has not had a President (I am a fast learner!). Of course, Bush eventually worked himself into being a non-President anyway, but that’s another story.
    So it should come as no surprise that the Republican party, home to such wonderful future talent as the comical Sarah Palin, would not even wait until Obama is inaugurated to begin the campaign against him. And these people claim to be Americans.

    Ah, who could forget those “Charlton Heston is My President” bumper stickers.

  7. it is pretty sweet to see people dissing Obama before he is president.

    there president isn’t even around, but sure, bash the guy that isn’t president for being the president, bc your president is hiding.

    i love it.

    It’s day -41 of the failed Obama presidency.

  9. Geezer says:

    Eric Cantor strikes me as a real hand job.

  10. pandora says:

    Cantor reminds me of Rick Santorum.

  11. Bob McWilliams says:

    pandora – I always thought his name was Rick Sanitorium.

  12. Now, I can’t say that I understand y’all’s objections. If the former junior senator from Illinois has no ties to this thing at all, nor any real involvement in anything else touched by Rod Blagojevich, why wouldn’t you want him to get every scrap of paper, every note of contact, his whole schedule, out in the open to immediately answer any questions and prove, as well as can be proven, that he had no ties at all to this?

    The former junior senator from Illinois has a well-earned reputation for getting out in front of these problems. Why not get the jump on them now, and avoid problems later?

    I object to you being an dumbass. That’s what I object to. But to address your question more directly….

    Travel-gate? Whitewater?

    Do these words have any meaning to you? They should.
