What's that smell?

Is it pants on fire?

I hope this guy wins the primary, because he'll be cream chipped beef on toast by Fourth of July.

Comments (10)

HEY!Don't talk bad about creamed chipped beef. I'm a Jersey boy. He be toast, no doubt. Now Mannix, he be scrapple.

He ran against my favorite Rep Darlene, one of the best and a good person last time. He had ugly campaign adds accusing her of betraying the troops, etc. They were so far fetched and just plain deceptive. I could never vote for that creep.

Don't worry. His career is just about over.

-Point of parliamentary procedure.

The issue here is not whether we broke a few rules or...took a few liberties with our female party guests.

We did.

But you can't hold a whole fraternity
responsible for the behaviour of a few sick, perverted individuals.

If you do...shouldn't we blame the whole fraternity system?


And if the whole fraternity system is guilty...then isn't this an indictment
of our educational institutions in general?

(Deltas cheering)

I put it to you, Greg.

Isn't this an indictment of our entire American society?



Well...you can do what you want to us...

but we won't sit here...and listen to you badmouth the United States of America!

Gentlemen!

(Deltas hum the national anthem)


Maybe 5th District voters should write in John Belushi on the R side. Maybe his brother Jim B. could come up to Oregon with his band and play a few gigs during the campaign.

What's the residency requirement? ... like a hotel room would suffice, I do believe.

I think that Animal House is good training for the Oregon Congressional delegation. With bowtie bicycle bozo, and StarTrekkie Wu, and OneFlewOverTheCooKoo'sNest, all we need is a Blushi and a Tawnya to round out the farm.

Nyah, nyah, nyah, your guys are worse than our guys. (Now that is political discourse at its best.)

Greg C

This guy isn't any worse than any of the meatballs pandering for your vote in any of the Oregon elections this year. At least he's not running with a commercial that suggests we should vote for him because he can open a bottle of beer!

Faber College, where "Knowledge is Good".

The Erickson Defense: I've "dated" lots of women and I don't always remember their last names or where they live. I may have given her $300, and I may have given her a ride to a medical appointment, and we may have taken a vacation together. But I certainly never ASKED her to get an abortion.

The Delta House Defense seems more credible, by comparison.

you lie you die you cum you go

Every (good) businessman and/or politician knows of these two absolute rules. Goodbye and good luck to this untrustworthy guy.
