5. i wonder why nobody ever thought of it before

something for signs and bumper stickers for sure.

8. Actually, when you put the car in "W"
You take off to the right at about 300 miles per hour, but you can't steer, stop, or slow down. Ever.

After all, if you were able to slow down or change direction, even to avoid obstacles, it would be a sign of weakness.

9. How frippin' kewl!
Right now just about anything would be preferrable to "F" for fascist. BFEE is screwing up so bad right now, I almost wish it were six months longer before elections-they might tar and feather them, where, right now they can just about mope through the next month or so, holding their breaths and hoping nothing too big goes wrong and nobody watches too closely.

America is due for an oil change in November! Time to give the old Bushmobile a lube job! A complete tune up is in order before winter, because good gubmint has been missing badly!

EDIT} We've been bored and stroked long enough!

15. Great.........I think he used that statement on
the almost 4000 people at "FightingBob Fest" to test it out. The rally was in Baraboo Wisconsin, about 40 miles outside of Madison. http://www.fightingbobfest.com/ I attended, Tom Harkin was there, Robert Kennedy Junior, and Jim Hightower were also present, the gathering was just fantastic.
