One of the things I like about Twitter is the comedy jam sessions where someone just start posting to a topic and soon everyone is joining in – political pundits, comedy professionals, white house correspondents, etc. Someone yesterday wrote something with the tag #1stdraftmovielines and I had a lot of fun with that one. Here’s what I cam up with:

I’ll bet it’s a laugh a minute when you get Helen Thomas, George Will and Limbaugh together. Aren’t chatrooms kind of old fashioned, or is this just some new kind of celebrity worship?

“Obama will tax you, Frank. He’ll tax you for reasons he can’t even fathom. He’ll arrive at your door as innocent as a child, longing for the past Soviet Union. He’ll take all the money without even thinking about it: for it is money he wants and morals he lacks. And he’ll take the money and it’ll be as if he dipped himself in magic waters. The memories of the Stamp Act will be so thick he’ll have to brush them away from his face. The one constant through all the Dems has been taxing. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It has been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt and erased again. But taxing has marked the time. It’s a part of their past, Frank. Oh… Obama will tax, Frank. Obama will most definitely tax.”
