I've got arthritis in my spine and I can't move as fast (or as far) as I used to! I guess this means I get left behind. :cry:

My husband offered to strap me to a skateboard with duct tape, hand me some plastic sheeting (in case of rain) and tie me to the back of the car. :rofl: I think I'll be okay.

14. And what would happen if ...
... (God forbid) there was ever an ACTUAL danger to the WH? Would Bush, Cheney and the gang just stay put in their offices, thinking it was one of their own fake-terror alert 'publicity stunts'?

"Hey, Andy, why didn't anyone tell me we were having one of our fake terrorist things happening today, because I didn't -- hey, what's the funny chemical smell?"

Irony of ironies.

21. They better blow it up on television
Especially if it is bag of pretzels.

Cable news is having a huge orgasm over a new "Be Afraid" story they can run for the next 24 hours. It is quite hilarious actually. Cable news believes that zooming in and out on trees and a fence is somehow better informing their viewers.

28. Rove! He's becoming so boringly predictable, Machiavelli would
certainly disapprove. KKKRove needs to brush up on Machiavelli's The Prince, and The Art of War. No one believes this B.S. any more!

30. Didn't they demand extraordinary security around the White House
And spend billions on Homeland Security to keep a tight grip on suspicious activities?

Looks like their Big Security Government is a total failure then. Maybe we should go back to a government for the good of the 'We The People,' instead of their failed Police State.
