Re: [MOPO] A prayer for Dubyah?

[JR]

It's too bad that some people are so politically-correct that they can't read a little joke without getting all in a lather.   The simple fact is the hurricane is going to come ashore somewhere -- I was just pointing out that there are alternative landing zones besides the lovely old city of New Orleans -- and that he President *is* in the general vicinity.   But, as long as people are taking my crack seriously, allow me to point out that if anyone does have a deflector grid capable of disintegrating a category 5 storm, it would be the POTUS.   But hey, how come nobody ever gets all huffy at the Secret Service for calling the President a POTUS, anyway? Seems a lot more disrespectful than anything I said...   And nothing I said could possibly be considered "political" anyway, all I suggested was that I'd rather see him get rained on than the city of New Orleans be wiped out... unless it was the idea of him getting all wet. But that's not the same thing as being all wet. Is it?   OK, that last *was* a little political... but since I'm being tarred and feathered for the crime I might as well indulge a bit... and since when isn't a President fair game for a joke or two? It's an American tradition, right up there with Mom and apple pie. Or is it true what they say, that Republicans have no sense of humor?   Y'all need to lighten up on the knee-jerk defensive reactions.   -- JR   ----- Original Message ----- From: William A Brent To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Sent: Sunday, August 28, 2005 21:27 Subject: Re: [MOPO] A prayer for New Orleans a bit cheap using an impending disaster to push some clever little political comment. but I guess the lives and property of the 700 people in Crawford - aren't as important as those in New Orleans At 08:48 PM 8/28/2005, JR wrote: > >Everyone think "Texas" -- let's have Katrina dump her load on Dubyah >over in Crawford and screw up *his* vacation. >          Visit the MoPo Mailing List Web Site at www.filmfan.com    ___________________________________________________________________               How to UNSUBSCRIBE from the MoPo Mailing List        Send a message addressed to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]             In the BODY of your message type: SIGNOFF MOPO-L     The author of this message is solely responsible for its content.
