If Elizabeth Warren is the nominee, will there be no balloons dropped at the DNC convention?

[Maceman]

They should ban condoms too, right?

[Repeat Offender]

I thought democrats loved balloons and were righteously angry that the Tea Party Congress was going to ruin balloons for everyone....?!

Brought to you by the same guy who was worried Guam might tip over....

Imagine a world without ballons

Banning condoms too?

Dead Red Ted Kennedy wouldn’t allow windmills on Martha’s Vineyard.

North Korean kids will be able to have balloons at their birthdays. Not American kids.

Now we know why clowns are provoked into becoming evil.

Having had much experience with this state, I was inspired to create this bumper sticker: Feel free to distribute and print...:)

Perfect.

No more balloon angioplasties.

Something similar to what Anthony Bourdain said after a day of fun with Ted Nugent.

LOL, just to be clear, I am in no way saying I made up this saying or sentiment...only the putting it on a graphic that looks like a bumper sticker!

I have no idea who voiced that sentiment, but boy, did I get a kick out of it when I heard it.

Reminded me of that famous Mencken quote: “Puritanism: The haunting fear that someone, somewhere, may be happy.”

Lock her up!

[Vermont Lt]

That’s funny.

[rlmorel]

With all this stuff going on, I guess we have to try to find humor where we can.

I should say I don’t mean to impart humor on the issue of this woman’s death, but...I guess we start out on A -> A, then B, then G, next thing I know, we are talking about skydiving in the Andes on a thread about a woman killed by her dogs.

[rlmorel]

Geez...I can’t even get my threads straight now! (That’ll be my next excuse)

[rlmorel]

Hahaha...we need someone who can take the video from the dodgeball movie, put Trump’s head on it, and having it wing the ball off of Hillary making her fall into the plane or the car...
