Is there an anti-elvian prejudice afoot in the land? According to the DUmmies there is and I can't say I disagree with them. I mean how seriously can you take somebody who looks like a tiny elf? Even Kucinich's former press secretary (William Rivers Pitt) secretly mocked him by sending insider info on the 2004 Kucinich presidential primary campaign to the Kerry campaign in a desperate bid to ingratiate himself with the latter until the Elf discovered the betrayal and fired Pitt. Of course, if an elf cannot be elected president, does that also close the White House doors to people with a Leprechaun appearance? In any event, the prejudice against elves is dicussed in this DUmmie THREAD accurately titled, "Dennis Kucinich looks like an elf." As usual, the DUmmie elfian treatise is in Bolshevik Red while the commentary of your humble correspondent, pouring Pixie Dust on Kucinich's presidential chances, are in the [brackets]:
Dennis Kucinich looks like an elf
[Hey, it's better than looking like a Frankenstein monster which is who your 2004 presidential candidate resembled.]
That's why nobody would vote for him to be the next president. Because of how he looks. He doesn't have a southern accent and he doesn't have white hair. He doesn't look like a president, so people don't take him seriously.
[Time to initiate a whole bunch of anti-elf discrimination legislation.]
Well, I say enough of this idiocy. Forget Hillary. Forget Gore, Clark, Joe, or whoever the hell else. Dennis Kucinich would probably be the best damn thing to happen if people would only give him a chance. He's a pacifist, he's progressive, he seems to actually give a f*ck about the people, and he's not corrupted by big corporations and lobbyists.
[Too bad the American people are too narrow to overcome their anti-elf prejudices.]
You want to send a REAL message to the assholes right now controlling the country? Both the Democrats and the Republicans? (And don't for one second think there aren't corrupted Dems). Send the one guy who the media doesn't give a chance in hell to the white house. Show those bastards that the people are going to take the country back by putting the guy who doesn't look like a president and who was divorced in power.
[Elf for Pres!]
If you look at his policies, they're the most progressive. They're the best ideas. If he was president and people like him ran the senate and congress, things would actually start to improve. Health care, education, the economy, the world stage. So why don't people vote for him?
[Because he looks like Tinkerbell's groom?]
Because he looks like an elf.
[Cheer up. Plastic surgery could make him look like a leprechaun.]
Sad.
[FUnnie. And now to hear from the rest of the pro-elvian DUmmies...]
I got no problem with Dennis Kucinich. None.
[You are one of the rare ones who has overcome anti-elf prejudices.]
Dumberica likes only medium-to-tall white alpha males with folksy demeanor. Corporations would order the news to paint him as a crazy leaping gnome.
[More like a Gollum...like James Carville.]
He might look like an elf, but liberals are naturally adversed to... anything that looks like money - pretty is not an attractive thing to liberals, got it? Pretty means money, and in our minds, money is evil. That's why liberals don't mind that Kucinich looks like an elf.
[I don't mind either. Some of my best friends are elves.]
Progressives could have made Kucinich the nominee. But we talk ourselves out of it with hand-wringing about "electability." Well, we picked the most "electable" candidate running in the '04 primary and we saw how that worked out.
[Lurch lost.]
Sad but true- just like Robin Cook in the UK who was a gifted politician but acknowledged that he would never become Prime Minister because he looked like a garden gnome.
[At least he was able to scare the crows away from the tomatos.]
Hes definietely the MAN... but Americans are too stupid to appreciate him!
[They just can't get past that elf thing.]
Perhaps those shallow thinkers will be silenced should he ever run again, with his tall, beautiful wife standing at his side.
[Being towered over by your own wife? That would only emphasize his elfishness.]
I think Kerry's looks may have hurt him as well.
[Those looks scared the hell out of the kids.]
Even Al Frum, Mr DLC, said that Edwards wasn't invited to their meeting this past weekend, but not to make much of it because they didn't need a beauty contest anyway. What a snark.
[Frum was just jealous of Edwards' hairspray.]
You are wrong - Dennis has always been attractive to me and I believe to many other women, as well. He has way more sizzle than most men.
[Dennis Kucinich as the next Fabio.]
He's Keebler, reincarnated!
[Certainly not the Jolly Green Giant.]
I saw a focus group on C-span during the summer of 2003, about the dem primary candidates. They showed the panel pictures of the nine candidates and asked for their impressions. There were something like ten people in the focus group, and a couple of them recognized a few of the candidates, the rest recognized zero of them. No one recognized Dennis. Their reaction to his picture was to laugh.
[Time to face an ugly truth---elves are FUnnie.]
I love that man, and I wanted to marry him, but that English woman Elizabeth beat me to it.
[The Pillsbury Dough Boy is still available.]
Are those the best wedding photos they could find?
Or the bankrupting Cleveland thing.
definietely
LOL! LOL! PJ, you owe me for a new keyboard to replace the one I spit my Sunkist all over laughing at that...
So that's why you're all bucket-ugly.
yeah, if Keebler ever wants to make live-action versions of their cartoon ads, they found their man.
Yes. In the other ones you could see his face.
Yeah, I know. Some of them were pretty sad. I could take better ones, and I'm notorious for not centering the camera properly! :-D
"Just what I would be discussing if I ever won a date with Petra Verkaik."
Actually, I would have expected that you would be trying to discuss the...ahem..."Big Bang Theory", as Boortz calls it, if you ever won a date with Petra Verkaik.
Wow, PJ, that is one riveting article...and the links...all bookmarked for me to finish later. Jason Leopold is even more sick than I imagined!
Congrats on your link mention on NewsBusters!
Actually, that's the Kucinich campaign slogan from 2004. It's also Kerry's 2008 slogan.
What a tangled web we weave. I have most (not all) the links saved to PDF. I just didn't want to take the time to read everything, but got through a lot. Sheesh. Unbelievable!
Man, if he's the best, I don't want to know what SECOND best is....
He's a pacifist,
Translation: He's a P*$$Y
...he's progressive,
He's a FLAMING LIBERAL!
...he seems to actually give a f*ck about the people,
Only those that can benefit him the most.
...and he's not corrupted by big corporations and lobbyists.
That's because he is NOT in a position that is a threat to the corps....not yet anyway....
Once he obtains power, corps and their lobbyist will be on him like flies on $*!#...
I'm afraid the chances for that marriage lasting don't look good for the long haul. Inter-racial marriage was once taboo but is fairly common now, but I don't think society is quite yet ready to accept inter-species marriage.
AKA, his policies are the most liberal...
They're the best ideas.
...If this were the old USSR...
If he was president and people like him ran the senate and congress, things would actually start to improve.
If regression could be called an "improvement"....
Health care, education, the economy, the world stage.
Good, so-so, excellent and WHO GIVES A DA*#!
Sometimes, the best thing to do is do nothing and LEAVE THINGS ALONE! But the politicians prescribe to the idea of "IF it ain't broke, FIX it 'til it is!"
