John Edwards vows to end all "Bad Things"

http://www.theonion.com/content/news/john_edwards_vows_to_end_all_bad



Quote:
Sen. John Edwards made his most ambitious policy announcement yet at a campaign event in Iowa Monday: a promise to eliminate all unpleasant, disagreeable, or otherwise bad things from all aspects of American life by the end of his second year in office.

"Many bad things are not just bad—they're terrible," said a beaming Edwards, whose "Only the Good Things" proposal builds upon previous efforts to end poverty, outlaw startlingly loud noises, and offer tax breaks to those who smile frequently. "

Presumably that would extend to $400 haircuts.

So, he's going to end himself?

Is that like the "man" sticking it to himself?

Best,

Kurt

And the Bushes, Cheneys, Roves and the rest while they're at it.

A world without politicians. Wouldn't that be bliss?

I think so.

Could it be that Edwards is actually Jesus in a $400 haircut and the second coming is nigh?

This man is like a 'wind-up toy characture' of the 'every-mans' politician.

I believe we ARE being watched/visited by aliens from other planets ...and this guy is their front man. Beware!

Every time I see John Edwards, this is what comes to mind:

Quote:
And after a while, you can work on points for style
Like the club tie, and the firm handshake
A certain look in the eye, and an easy smile
You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to
So that when they turn their backs on you
You'll get the chance to put the knife in.

I gotta be honest with you guys. Mr. Edwards gives me the willies. As many of you know (I'd be happy to explain again if you like) I took an immediate and forceful dislike to Dubya. From the first time I saw him in a video. Typical phoney coward has always been my strongest impression. Well.......my view of Mr. Edwards is not much different.

Unfortunately the size of the group, in this case the United States, dictates that leaders do not come via natural selection, but rather via deceit and lobbying. It started out as a cesspool system, can we expect anymore now?
