Now that John Edwards is going to be accepting public financing for his campaign, that means all of us tax payers are now funding his campaign.
I’m for that. Because of his poor fundraising, Edwards would have to exit the race were it not for federal funds, and considering the popularity of Harvey’s John Edwards Fabulous Facts, anything that keeps Edwards campaigning is a boon for IMAO (and thus all of America if not the world). I’m happy to have my money going towards the hilarious spectacle that is John Edwards.
So say we all?
If I wanted to give you money (I don’t) I’d just click that donate box!
Well thank, you. I am fabulous and I deserve your money and Presidency. Do you sell combs?
Somebody help ol’ Wollf out here……Is AR snarking? pwning? being humorless? Sorry, my point:
I love John Edwards being in the thin of things. For exactly the reasons the wise and powerful Frank J. posted. And for one even more important observation.
Look closely at his “Fun Facts” photo. Isn’t he the “never before seen” Ensign from every single Star Trek episode that involves a crew member being vaporized?
Frank, tell the truth. That’s not a compact he’s holding up…it’s a Tricorder gizmo, and he’s just about ready to receive a Fred-ulan a$$ wuppin”!!
I crack myself up.
I need a lady. Or a cookie. Preferably Chocolate.
The cookie, I mean.
well yes, but I really think you guys also need to mock Obama. he’s every bit insubstantial and ludicrously underqualified as Edwards, probably moreso. I really think the only purpose of both the Edwards and Obama candidacies is to make Hillary look qualified and competent in comparison.
Ok. Daily Barack Obama Fact: Obama’s ears are so big and strangely shaped that NASA studied them once to improve microwave receivers.
Make fun of the Barakolypse (did I spell that right?)? To easy…
Tommy is right. Poor Obama is being neglected. Of course, I don’t want to lose out on Harvey’s “Fun Facts”, but maybe the ridicule needs to be shared with others that are deserving. Then again, there are so many monkey-faced libs and so little time.
Actually, no, AR. Edwards is a field day. You gotta work to poke Obama (and he doesn’t crap ham sandwiches like Frank claims of Fred.)
Another Barack Obama Incredible Fact (for Friday night): Barack looks like a basketball player. But he can’t dribble – except at the toilet.
I’ll pay. Good wholesome entertainment + smacking around a liberal= money well spent.
Lil’ Johnny makes the Swiss Miss Girl look butch.
I mean, surely Edwards wouldn’t mind his federal funding to finance Obamockery too, right? when a village just ain’t enough, a giant public handout will have to do!
I don’t know if a Daily Fun Fact is the right format for Obama or not, but I’m sure the guys with the PhDs in funny can figure something out!
Does this mean that John Edwards will no longer be able to afford his personal shampoo and will have to revert to store-brand Chinese-manufactured junk? Silky Pony no more, a rat’s-nest of split ends and static-filled fly-away hair?
Don’t worry Ed, tomorrow’s fun fact today:
Even chicomm lead-based shampoo can’t spoil Johnny’s perfectly coifed locks and make the ladies less envious.
That’s right. Even sabotage by Hillary’s Chinese backers can’t derail the path of our First Female President!
Guys, this isn’t fair. To compare anybody to Edwards completely misses the combination of hypocrisy, obliviousness to hypocrisy, cluelessness, and obliviousness to cluelessness that we’ve all come to know so well.
The only comparison that comes even vaguely in the same ballpark would be if Nancy Pelosi were a guy and even then only to the extent she is so incredibly clueless about some issues that she doesn’t realize how she comes across when she discusses them (and this is overlooking the $400 dollar haircuts, the being paid half a million dollars by a hedge fund “to study poverty,” the complete shellacking he received in the ’04 Vice Presidential Debate, the “I feel pretty” video . . .) Say what you will about Obama’s qualifications, the guy has a brain. Nobody, nobody belongs within the same league as Edwards.
meh, they’re both jokes, WAL. Obama might not quite meet Edwards’ level on the hypocricy scale (I’d use Al Gore as the equivalent rather than Aunt Nancy, fwiw), but he’s no less deserving of derision and mockery for that.
Although I do understand the entertainment value of the Edward’s campaign, I really think therapy for Pelosi, Reid and the rest would be a better use of our tax dollars.
I would suggest therapy for Slick Pony but he’d enjoy it too much. I’m not in the business of entertaining him.
Imagine the Slickmiester and the Slick Pony in the same administration. The whole group would look like a cartoon, their legs would be moving but nobody would be going anywhere….. wait a minute, sounds just like Congress.
Somebody squeegy that guys head!
This is the second day this week that you’ve skipped ronin profiles, did you think we wouldn’t notice? I mean, I’m certainly all for keeping Brave Sir Johnny around so we can make fun of him, but there are more important matters at hand!
AR: Barackalypse, I think. Though is there really a correct way to spell a made-up word? Anyways, we can always just think up stuff like that for the people like him who haven’t made it far too easy for us yet.
Just found this:

Not great, but worth a chuckle.
umm…do we have to pay for the salon sessions too?
We all.
Since we fund PBS and NPR we may as well throw money at something with some entertainment value, so count me as a yes.
So say we all.
“So say we all?”
Perhaps, but I just want to know when we’re going to use our public funds to tackle the real problem.
In other words: When are we going to do something about those fracking cylons???
