A Plain Old Kiss
Some people need a peck or two;
For others a simple smooch will do;
Too many, a graze will stimulate;

For flowery words they have a knack.
But all I want from you is bliss,
Which you can give me with a plain, old kiss!

The guy is a loser, and stands for everything any woman not totally brainwashed by the feminazis hates with a passion.
If I may borrow a phrase from the guys...Not even with someone else's would I do him. And yes, he does look JUST like Alfred E. Neumann

I remember Clinton's first State of the Union (or maybe it was some other major speech) on TV and my dad called me up in total shock. He was like "This is weirder than the circus sideshow! It's worse than the bar scene in Star Wars!"
