Nice stuff on Iraq, the idea of socialized healthcare, and education regarding No Child Left Before. Though I couldn't help but snicker when he pronounced diabetes as 'diabeetis'.

I immediately thought of those old diabetes commercials. XD

And he actually got his 'boxers or briefs' moment when he was asked 'Rolling Stones or Beatles' and 'Jay Leno or David Letterman'.

He replied 'I only remember one song from the Beatles' and 'I don't watch either of them. Will Rogers was my favorite comedian.'

What made me think of that commercial was this old remix I saw of the old Wilford Brimley commercial. Hilarity!

Will Rogers was my favorite comedian.'

Ha! I knew it!

Will Rogers: "On account of being a democracy and run by the people, we are the only nation in the world that has to keep a government four years, no matter what it does."

"Our constitution protects aliens, drunks and U.S. Senators." Will Rogers

"I don't belong to any organized party, I'm a democrat!"Will Rogers

Hunter is defintely old school. If I recall, he grew up w/o a TV. And I’m willing to bet he watches precious little of it now.

Will Rogers was my favorite comedian.

Will Rogers had been dead over 12 years when Hunter was born. Seems like he needs a better answer than one that will only inspire octogenarians.

Getting a majority of senior citizens to truly vote for the GOP is a good thing! The GOP at every political level truly needs the majority of votes from every age group in ‘07, ‘08, and beyond!

Will Rogers was a national treasure and transcends time and generational barriers. The story here is the subtle dissing of Leno and Letterman. Letterman is busy kissing Queen Oprah and Hillarys a$$ and Leno is the announcement platform for Rino's and moderates.

If Hunter's MySpace page is any indicator he inspires some hotties as well. If they are octogenarians then time has been exceedingly kind to them. :)
