Kim Jong-il's Death Spurs A Slew of Political Cartoons



Since the demise of N. Korea's Kim Jong-il, a slew of political cartoons about him have been published across the globe.  Always a popular target whilst still alive, people are going to miss him now that he's dead. Then again, his son (who even most Koreans know very little about) will prove a most suitable replacement, as evidenced in the above cartoon. 

Carol Hills, at TheWorld.org compiled a short video/slide show of some of those cartoons.
As nasty as he was, I suppose he deserves it.

John Clarke and Bryan Dawe: World Debt Crisis Explained In 3 Minute Video

Satirists John Clarke and Bryan Dawe explain, in this 3 minute comedy routine, the ridiculousness of the current European (and world) economic debt crisis. It doesn't get simpler and tragically funnier than this.

"How can broke economies lend money to other broke economies who haven't got any money because they can't pay back the money the broke economy lent to the other broke economy and shouldn't have lent it to them in the first place because the broke economy can't pay back?"

Political Joke of the day: Long Distance Phone Charges From Hell

A little humour during these trying times, arrived via email.

Long Distance Phone Charges from Hell

George Bush, Queen Elizabeth, and Vladimir Putin all die and go to hell.
While there, they spy a red phone and ask what the phone is for. The devil tells them it is for calling back to Earth.

Putin asks to call Russia and talks for 5 minutes. When he was finished the devil informs him that the cost is a million dollars, so Putin writes him a check.

Next Queen Elizabeth calls England and talks for 30 minutes. When she was finished the devil informs her that cost is 6 million dollars, so Queen Elizabeth writes him a check.

Finally George Bush gets his turn and talks for 4 hours.When he was finished the devil informed him that there would be no charge for the call and feel free to call the USA anytime. When Putin hears this he goes ballistic and asks the devil why Bush got to call the USA free.

The devil replied,

"Since Obama became President of the USA , the country has gone to hell, so naturally it's only a local call."

Joke of the day: Musical Video "One Single Payer System"

Brilliant take-off on the song "One" from "A Chorus Line" making fun of Obamacare's one-single-payer system. The lyrics are from the youtube site. Very clever.



One single payer system that's what we intend to get
One single payer system perhaps not all of it yet
Something that Bill and Hillary could not do
Well just abolish illness with you-know-who

One single payer system everybody gets their share
But well never have to ration care, no way son
Hell, folks he can heal the planet
Disease, well, well simply have to ban it
Cause hes the one

One single payer system like our neighbors the Canucks
One single payer system but ours will be real deluxe
In one fell swoop were solving the health care crunch
Who's says that we don't believe that there's no free lunch

One single payer system lets do it for Uncle Ted
Pretty soon hes dead, its time to get it done
This is change you can believe in
Trust me, you know we aint deceiving
Cause hes the one.

One single payer system might be kinda tough to sell
One single payer system wont leave it up to Michelle
Harry and Nancy you folks can calm your fears
And hell get coverage that will fix those ears

One single payer system covers every healthcare need
No time to read the bill just pass Obama Care
But it sounds a little socialistic
This pig is gonna need some lipstick
Obama-care

MIchelle Obama's Inauguration Dress- You Pick!


After Michelle O's hideous fashion choice for Obama's election night win, Zack over at Diversity Lane created these lovelies. I know which one I would choose, and you?
Let's hope she hired someone with better fashion sense to pick her inauguration event outfit/s!!

Joke of the day: "Little Johnny Was Republican"

A little election day humor!



A teacher in Elmira , New York asked her 6th grade class how many of them were Obama fans.
Not really knowing what an Obama fan is, but wanting to be liked by the teacher, all the kids raised their hands except for Little Johnny.
The teacher asked Little Johnny why he has decided to be different...again.
Little Johnny said, 'Because I'm not an Obama fan.'

The teacher asked, 'Why aren't you an Obama fan?'

Johnny said, 'Because I'm a Republican.'
The teacher asked him why he's a Republican.
Little Johnny answered, 'Well, my Mom's a Republican and my Dad's a Republican, so I'm a Republican.' Annoyed by this answer, the teacher asked, 'If your mom was a moron and your dad was an idiot, what would that make you?' With a big smile, Little Johnny replied,'That would make me an Obama fan.'

"Twas The Night Before Election"-

Inspired by an email that PatJKnowistall sent me, my Democratic Dad (who is not voting Obama and is an amateur writer/songwriter) came up with the following:

'Twas the night before election, and I was Biden my time,
Wondering out loud if it would turn out a crime.
Then I heard a barry loud noise, like, Oh,- Bam! an' I thought,
Was it just fireworks or a socialist plot.

I grabbed My Cane 'cause I had A corn on my toe,
And fast as I could, hobbled out the front doh.
My face turned Pale 'n I felt like I'd faint.
I wasn't Putin on Ayres 'cause a phoney I aint.

Were the Russians invading across the "Bridge to Nowhere"?
Al-ask-an Inuit if I see one out there.
Wright or wrong I'll address a big crowd,
"Vote for the Elephant", and I'd say it out loud.

But I'm happy to say, it was nothing at all,
Just some Republican voters out having a ball.
'Cause an E-Mail from Santa said "You've nothing to fear,
'Cause the last North Poll shows "It's a Republican year!

Alternate ending. We weren't sure which was better:
'Cause an E-Mail from Santa said "It's a close race but you have nothing to fear.
My North Poll has the Donkey nosed out by an Elephant's ear."


From your lips to God's Ears, Pops!

More Hillary Humour

I've laid off for a while, so thought it was time for some more Hillary Humour. Below the video is a joke:




Hillary Clinton and her driver were cruising along a country road one evening when an ancient cow loomed in front of the car. The driver tried to avoid it but couldn't. The aged cow was struck and killed. Hillary told her driver to go up to the farm house and explain to the owners what had happened. She stayed in the car making phone calls. About an hour later the driver staggered back to the car with his clothes in disarray. He was holding a half-empty bottle of expensive wine in one hand, a rare, huge Cuban cigar in the other, and was smiling happily, smeared with lipstick."What happened to you," asked Hillary? "Well," the driver replied, "the Farmer gave me the cigar, his wife gave me the wine, and their beautiful twin daughters made passionate love to me." "My God, what did you tell them?" asked Hillary. The driver replied, "I just stepped inside the door and said, "I'm Hillary Clinton's driver and I've just killed the old cow. The rest happened so fast I couldn't stop it."

A little Hillary Humour

H/T Myrepublicanhome


And ..... for the Democrat who has everything (and no I didn't buy it), there's the Hillary nutcracker:


They have dog chews you can buy for a mere $12.95 at wickedcoolstuff.com, so Rover can have at it:



and even toilet paper, for those so inclined:


Hillary, needless to say, is not the only butt of the political paraphernalia joke items, so to speak, but the only one I'm posting about. Obviously. Stay tuned for more.
