They Have a Sense of Humor: Obama and McCain Roast Each Other (HILARIOUS!)

October 18th, 2008 Leave a comment Go to comments

Flying home from Minot, North Dakota, I have a three hour layover in Minneapolis. I heard about this Al Smith Dinner where McCain and Obama take turns roasting each other so I just HAD to see it. I put on my Bose headset and started watching in the corner of a restaurant inside the airport. I laughed so hard other people walked up to me asking what was so funny. My goodness, people, these two men have a sense of humor, I tell ya! You have GOT to watch these videos!!!

    Those were GREAT!
    The world needs more humor. It is healing. With more humor, I think we would have a lot less problems and stress in the world!

    You had me at “Joe the Plumber”! Being a true Delawarean, I totally get that! It’s good to have some humor during this election season. I get so tired of all the negative campaigning. Thanks for sharing!

    If he was only like that in his debates……

    He would still be a power hungry moron that thinks he is owed something. We don’t need another one of those in the White House.

    Donny,

    I can’t even read your blog anymore. I cannot believe the crap that is posted in your political threads. It’s the same neoconservative b/s that has run this country into the ground and it’s coming from a large number of your “supporters”.

    However you manage to keep pandering to these morons I have no idea. You are obviously a stronger man than me as I would have closed my website down if I had to deal with such stupidity on a daily basis.

    Hey whitey, you’re funny. just hurl insults and say nothing coherent to back up your reasoning. Let’s hear your actual take. You sound like the kind of person that doesn’t really see logic or reason. You probably loved the photomanipulation of McCain as a war monger licking blood off his lips. Am I right? come on have a little fun here. Say something more than plugging your ears and screaming “I’M RIGHT, YOU’RE WRONG.”

    Dalen, thanks but I think I’ll stay off that bridge to nowhere. Neocons are not open to reason, logic or rational thought. You say I seem illogical and unreasonable, care to test that theory? Let’s meet somewhere and put that to the test with some professional evaluations. I’d offer a wager on it but I’m guessing you don’t gamble in case it would send you to hell.

    The reason I said that to Donny is that he knows a lot of the people here are off their rockers. However, it suits him to keep pandering to them because it helps his ego and finances to do so. I couldn’t do it.

    Actually Whitey, I have gambled. I just don’t think it’s that wise unless I have a reasonable amount of throw away money at the time. (I suck at it) I also drink occasionally and many other so-called “sins”. I have a couple of close friends who suck on the “glass dick” all the time. They do profess faith in Christ. I’m not going to get into a useless argument on the right or wrong of marijuana. So maybe we both pegged each other off a bit.

    OK. My point was that it is blatantly clear that McCain and Palin are not only bad for our country but bad people in general. The fact that many here would vote for them because of a few moral issues that have become the flashpoints in recent elections makes me sick.

    McCain is a corrupt a**shole and so is Palin. McCain is a liar and so is Palin. McCain is allowing the racism and hatred that Palin has fostered to go unchecked while deriding Obama for not repudiating someone unrelated to the campaign speaking the truth about it. After 8 years of Bush many have yet to learn and it’s pitiful.
