“Now let’s see, which display room to use? ‘Cause I/we/they really have to go.”

Good thing to see it has recovered from the dressing down Clint Eastwood gave it.
That Democrat chair is doing something obscene to that Republican table.
How can you tell the table is a Republican?
Elementary my dear walrus…that table has four legs of an equil length, thus it is stable and usable. A Democrat table invariably has one leg shorter than the rest, and is never stable or very usable…like for example, the leg on the right rear of the chair.
Did you just Tofu me?
I guess I did but it was an accident, I meant to hit bacon, it wasn’t my fault! I ran out of gas. I… I had a flat tire. I didn’t have enough money for cab fare. My tux didn’t come back from the cleaners. An old friend came in from out of town. Someone stole my car. There was an earthquake. A terrible flood. Locusts! IT WASN’T MY FAULT, I SWEAR TO GOD!
We’re even.
Wrong, now we’re uneven because I changed my accidental tofu to an on purpose bacon.
You flip flop better than John Kerry.
