From MarkoMancuso:
Wouldn’t McCain look a lot cooler if he talked in a pirate voice and carried a rusty cutlass around with him?
“And this be the cutlass that I, Maverick McCain, shall use if the foul harpy Michelle gets near me. Arggh!”
And no, I don’t know how I stumbled onto that train of thought.
I totally agree. That would be awesome. Plus, since Colonel Tigh has a patch eye, it’s easy to imagine what McCain would like as a pirate. I should remind him that Talk Like a Pirate Day is coming up in like a week, so it would be the perfect time for McCain to unveil his new image.
Line of the day goes to an Ace commenter Villiage Idiot (via the Puppy Blender):
I think they spent months trying to figure out how they can position Obama as better qualified than McCain, and basically came up with the fact that Obama can type.
Why can’t you guys be as clever as Ace’s commenters?
Yah, and Sarah Palin could dress up as a ninja! She could be his sidekick and totally kick Obama’s ass, that would be sweet!

Some of us are, until our comments mysteriously turn into troll gibberish…Trollification, IMAO’s answer to disemvoweling.
Or Spacemonkey turned his login over to his monkey minions….
Cool idea, but pirates always need a parrot, and all the parrots are busy at MSNBC and CNN.
It has to be a tough job trying to make this guy look good, even nature abhors an Obama.
Obama is a real life Senator Palpatine. He will become the emperor all he needs is power, and the press are his stormtroopers.
Sorry, I’m a little depressed today. Even I, cynic that I am can not stand the stench rising from the Obamanations.
He might be able to type, but spellcheck.
… not so sure.
“Why can’t you guys be as clever as Ace’s commenters?”
Oh come on now, Frank; If we were that clever, we wouldn’t even come here.
“even nature abhors an Obama.” #4
Not arugula. I’m sure it appreciates someone knowing what it is.
Hi. I just wanted to apologize for spawning Cadet Happy’s most recent post.
Thanks.
Why can’t you be as clever as Ace? Birds of a feather…
I fell asleep on the couch. Huh?
I’m Hillary Clinton and I’m the 800 pound gorilla in the closet that everyone isn’t talking about! When my party needs me…and they shall soon…I will once again pick up the mantle of the Democratic Party for America and shall march forth (for the children) to lead my people to victory this fall!
But first we are going to have some payback starting with Obama and then moving on to the pricks on this blog! Except for my Sweetie, Jimmy! So, dispense with your latest “girlfriend” from “Glory Hole Blow-Up Plastic Pleasures” Jimmy, because I’m back!
God will have that cripple elected for President!
I am an Ace commenter, I just try to tailor my comments to the site.
For instance, when commenting on Balloon Juice, I try to be my most stupid so they’ll understand.
When commenting at Q&O or Cultural Values, I try to be intelligent.
When commenting at Ace’s I try to be witty and intelligent.
Here? I always go for the low-hanging fruit (no, not cadet happy, he’s not so low-hanging).
And besides, you go to blog with the comments section you have not the one you wish you had.
OT but….
I don’t like it when people tell the blogger what to do, but if you don’t do one more IMW before January starring Bush wanting to play mario cart, Condi trying to nuke Finland, Cheney having a heart attack in his undisclosed location, Big Fat Teddy K, By the Way I served in Vietnam, the Rumsfeld Strangler and Chomps, I’m going to start some vicious lies about you. And unlike yours about the puppy-blender, mine will stick.
I’m Barack Obama and I am starting to wish I had picked Hillary as my VP candidate. I mean, Mrs. Palin might be right (but that’s the only thing she’s might be right about). I’m glad I know where Hillary is – in ussjimmycarter’s closet! ussjimmycarter is a good democrat to house her, considering her bulk and girth. Put her on a diet, ussjc (and subtract 15 years), so she looks as good Sarah Palin. And if you can, give her laughing lessons to eliminate the cackle. It’s really obnoxious! I’ve got to run to my next campaign stop in flooded Galveston, Texas, where instead of drinking the water – I’ll hand out cherry-flavored, liberal kool-aide!
I’m John McCain and I’d just like to say that ussjimmycarter is more like a conservative Republican to keep Hillary cooped up like that! (What a name!! Why would ANYONE name themselves after a submarine named after the crappiest president of the 20th Century? I mean, submariners “do it deeper!!”) No decent democrat would keep my good friend, Hillary Clinton from across the aisle, in a closet and keep her fat like that! Like what are you feeding her, ussjc? Hot dogs and cream puffs? (I happen to know that’s her favorite.)
