Curse the darkness (more political humor)

Yes, once again, it was an arch play of words on ZenEpeeist's remark. It was not intended as serious commentary on all government...

BTW, it was aimed primarily at a putative Kerry Administration specifically, just as Z.E.'s comment was aimed specifically at the Bush Administration...

This is the sort of thing that spawned the First Rule of Comedy.

No, I'm serious. I don't think I did understand it to "even be humorous."
Your comment, dear sir, is not astute, nor even humorous.

Is that better?

Sheesh, no slack for the man...forget your coffee this morning?

Inq, it was too obscure as humor for me... Smiley or not, I couldn't tell if you were serious.

OK, I may hate myself in the morning.

I believed it to be, based on the information that I had at the time, a potentially mildly humorous jab in context with Inq's other postings.

Did I phrase it properly to give myself reasonably deniable culpability?

IOW, if he gets that for which he would "give anything", ie an "Administration who saw shades of gray", ie a Kerry Administration, what will he not be forced to give in return for it, in terms of taxes, a hamstrung private sector, a timorous foreign policy, etc?

You should have said "Jeeesh, tough crowd tonight! Did you hear the one about the Sheik, the Rabbi, and Jehovah's witness" and then exited stage ultra-conservative stage right (muwahaha, I crack myself up).

You must excuse her, Democrats tend to lose all sense of humor when "their guys" are the targets.

I like "Is this an audience or an oil painting?", myself.
