Thousands of spectators decked out with Dominican flags and blowing whistles lined Sixth Ave. for the boisterous annual celebration. Almost every candidate for New York citywide offices showed up to court the large Dominican vote.
Of course mayoral candidate Anthony Weiner has to grab the longest plaintain he sees at New York's Dominican Day parade and wave it about Sunday.
“is that a plantain in your pocket, Mr Congressman, or are you just glad to see me?”
Thanks for the laugh.
Sorry...this guy is sick. he belongs in an institution
Gee, Wally, he looks kinda creepy.
He’s a New York kind of guy.
Oh. It’s so amusing to so many
Not to me
the first image of No_Limits_Weiner ...is all too reminiscent of photographs I have seen of those who’ve gone way off the deep end and ended up shooting up theaters....etc..etc.
Further, he and Spitzer are emblematic of the fact that ‘public service’ is not the reason why these people run for office, and this term should not be used to describe politicians anymore. He and Spitzer could find other ways to contribute to society, that don't involve personal fame, stature, privilege, and money; but, without those elements most politicians wouldn't be interested in running. We cannot ‘fix’ the US without getting rid of career politicians. It's that simple.
I’m just surprised he didn’t have a roll of socks
stuffed in his pants.
“Vote for Tony...He’s Wienerful!”
DAAAAAAAAAYO!
“Gee, Wally, he looks kinda creepy.”
You just gave me my best laugh of the day so far.

Yes, We Have No Bananas
Songwriters: FRANK SILVER, IRVING CONN
There’s a fruit store on our street
It’s run by a Greek
And he keeps good things to eat But you should hear him speak!
When you ask him anything, he never answers “no”
He just “yes”es you to death, and as he takes your dough He tells you
“Yes, we have no bananas
We have-a no bananas today
We’ve string beans, and onions
Cabashes, and scallions,
And all sorts of fruit and say
We have an old fashioned tomato
A Long Island potato But yes, we have no bananas
We have no bananas today
Business got so good for him that he wrote home today,
“Send me Pete and Nick and Jim; I need help right away”
When he got them in the store, there was fun, you bet
Someone asked for “sparrow grass” and then the whole quartet
All answered “Yes, we have no bananas
We have-a no bananas today
Just try those coconuts
Those wall-nuts and doughnuts
There ain’t many nuts like they
We’ll sell you two kinds of red herring,
Dark brown, and ball-bearing
But yes, we have no bananas
We have no bananas today”
He, he, he, he, ha, ha, ha whatta you laugh at?
You gotta soup or pie?
Yes, I don’t think we got soup or pie
You gotta coconut pie?
Yes, I don’t think we got coconut pie
Well I’ll have one cup a coffee
We gotta no coffee
Then watta you got?
I got a banana!
Oh you’ve got a banana!
Yes, we gotta no banana, No banana, No banana, I tell you we gotta no banana today
I sella you no banana
Hey, Mary Anna, you gotta... gotta no banana?
Why this man, he’s no believe-a what I say
no
he no believe me
Now whatta you wanta mister? You wanna buy twelve for a quarter?
Well, just a one of a look, I’m gonna call for my daughter
Hey, Mary Anna You gotta piana
Yes, a banana, no
Yes, we gotta no bananas today!
The new English “clark” (a.k.a. “clerk”):
Yes, we are very sorry to inform you
That we are entirely out of the fruit in question
The afore-mentioned vegetable Bearing the cognomen “Banana”
We might induce you to accept a substitute less desirable,
But that is not the policy at this internationally famous green grocery
I should say not. No no no no no no no
But may we suggest that you sample our five o’clock tea
Which we feel certain will tempt your pallet?
However we regret that after a diligent search
Of the premises By our entire staff
We can positively affirm without fear of contradiction
That our raspberries are delicious; really delicious
Very delicious But we have no bananas today.
Clearly, Weiner has given up his vain hope of reviving his political career (at least at this time) and is shooting for a reality show.
. . . and we cannot get rid of career politicians without wholly discrediting the popular media and entertainment cultures which shepherd so many mindless voters on their behalf.
Talk about someone who’s a creepy-ass cracker!
He has to act like a clown to get attention, now
Notice no one standing with him or marching along with him, like you might see all the suck-ups doing
He is all alone, people are looking aside, embarrased, and he has to resort to clown antics
Standing erect and proud, with a slight lean to the left.
