A Little Bit of Political Humor

The moderator of the debate wished the two candidates good luck. The right winged candidate left his notes at home. He was unprepared for the debate. The left winged candidate left his notes in the office. He was also unprepared for the debate. The moderator was getting impatient. Both candidates told the moderator that they were not prepared for the debate because they did not have their notes. The moderator then suggested, "Why don't you just wing it." The candidates thought about this suggestion and decided that the idea would fly.

Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton were both getting very anxious about the war in Iraq. They had a joint discussion about this matter with an eminent psychiatrist. Hillary did not like how our American troops were caught in the middle of a civil war. She was dismayed about our American casualties and our wounded soldiers. Barack Obama was also upset about the continuation of the war. He was concerned about the effects on our military and the drain on our economy. They felt a sense of helplessness since they could not orchestrate a change of course in Iraq on their own. The eminent psychiatrist, Dr. Phil A. Buster, told Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton that they both suffered from the same malady. "You have an urgent need to get our military out of Iraq. I'm afraid that you are suffering from withdrawal symptoms.""

Senator John McCain was feeling very confident. "I'm going to win the nomination for the Republican Party and then I'm going to really stick it to my enemies." Vice President Dick Cheney overheard this comment and made a suggestion to Senator McCain. "Remember that sticks and stones may break your bones, but water boarding is so much more effective." Senator McCain shook his head and remarked, "I think that you've seen a little too much 24 Hours. Your reasoning is torturous."
