Author Topic: Fun in NYC! (Read 19428 times)

Man, I would have loved to been there!!

Quote

One man wore a shirt that read "I'll Mess With Texas." A woman held a sign which said 'Yee-ha Is Not Foreign Policy.' One elderly man raised a placard asking "Whose Taxes Would Jesus Cut?" A young woman grinned as she hoisted a cardboard poster which demanded "Pull Out Like Your Father Should Have!" Another solemn-faced woman grasped one which stated: "Bring My Son Home."

The first ten blocks resembled more of a raucous political street party than anything else: Code Pink, a women's social justice group stopped at virtually every block to perform a well-choreographed dance routine as they chanted anti-Bush slogans; a head-bobbing group of teenage activists co-opted the hit Ludacris hip-hop song "Move Bitch" and began rapping "Move Bush! Get Out The Way!"

This guy rules. Eighty and marching in 90+ degree heat.

Quote

Meanwhile, as police helicopters pounded overhead and a corner of Madison Square Garden's coliseum appeared in the distance, 80-year-old Phillip Miller trudged along slowly and deliberately in his full U.S. Army First Cavalry regiment uniform. "Well, I'm here to protest the war," he said. "The same unit I fought with in World War II is fighting in Iraq. If this thing isn't stopped, it's going to be never-ending."

This doesn't surprise me....

Quote

Some of the demonstrators after the march headed for Times Square to pay a visit to the Republican delegates, who were attending Broadway shows as guests of The New York Times. Traffic was at a standstill for many blocks in the theater district, and police conducted large-scale arbitrary arrests of large groups without warning, catching protesters, bystanders, legal observers and some members of the press in their nets.

Quote

The Korean Alliance for Peace and Justice, from Los Angeles, which advocates for an end to U.S. presence in Korea and Iraq, formed a circle in front of the barricade and began playing the drums they were carrying, and some protestors stopped to dance. 21-year-old Cornelius (last name not given), wearing a hand-written "Baboons For Bush" shirt, doled out bananas to curious onlookers. "I'm voting for Bush, because I'm a baboon, and he's one of us," he chortled.

What? No "Billionaires for Bush"? Those guys were funny when Bush came to my town and I was at the protest.

I doubt that. A BJ to the officer will clear that up.

As well as helping to throw off the breathalyzer.

Speaking of "Blame Canada" I've been trying to do a La Resistance: Iraq War remix.

Haven't gotten very far.

God has smiled upon you this day
The fate of a nation in your hands
And blessed be the children
Who fight with all our bravery
Till only the righteous stand

You see the distant flames
They bellow in the night
You fight in all our names
For what we know is right
And when you all get shot
And can not carry on
Though you die
La Resistance lives on

You may get stabbed in the head
With a dagger or sword
You may be burned to death
Or skinned alive or worse
But when they torture you
You will not feel the need to run for
Though you die
La Resistance lives on

Blame Iraq
Blame Iraq
Because the country's gone awry
Tomorrow night these freaks will fry.

Tomorrow night
Our lives will change
Tomorrow night
We'll be entertained
An execution
What a sight
Tomorrow night

Saddam:
Over there, there is so much room
Where baby's burp and flowers bloom
Tomorrow night the US is doomed
And so I will be going soon

Shut your fucking face uncle fucker
You're a boner biting bastard uncle fucker

Looks like we may be out of luck
Tomorrow night we're pretty fucked

Why did Bush start this war
What the fuck are we fighting for
When did this song become a marathon

When Saddam is dead and gone there'll be no more

?

They may cut your dick in half
And serve it to a pig
And though it hurts you'll laugh
You'll dance a dickless jig
But that's the way it goes
In war you're shat upon
Though you die
La Resistance lives on

Blame Iraq, Blame Iraq, Blame Iraaaq!

Or something to that effect.

How are rednecks educational?

They're trying to enforce the need of their eradication.

Except Toe. Toe's cool.

With thousands of Republicans set to invade the city this summer, high-priced escorts and strippers are preparing for one grand old party.
Agencies are flying in extra call girls from around the globe to meet the expected demand during the Aug. 30-Sept. 2 gathering at Madison Square Garden.

"We have girls from London, Seattle, California, all coming in for that week," said a madam at a Manhattan escort service. "It's the week everyone wants to work."

Cause golly-gee, what's wrong with a little entertainment for such a fine upstanding bunch of respectable family men?!

Holy christ, I didn't expect that either. I thought they were against abortions.

Only when it involves votes. Let one of their daughters get knocked up, especially by a man not of Caucasian ancestry, and the Benz will be going so fast anyone on the route to the clinic will see a Doppler shift. <_<

On a related note, I may have to tune in tonight. I understand the Tequila Twins plan to stagger up and belch out a few pleasantries.

That's not true. I have Caucasian ancestors and they still wouldn't go for it.

Shoulda said "Caucasian visage".

A racist piece of literature claimed that the reason why American blacks have alot of talent and such now, is because they have white blood in em.

It doesn't explain Halle Berry's choice doing that god awful catwoman though...
