Roundup of Sunday Funnies 16 Nov 2009



The huge debt the Republicans always run up in every one of their administrations. When are they going to understand that war = huge debt?

From Jay Leno:

"Lou Dobbs has quit CNN. And here's the weird part: He didn't want to quit, his work visa expired."

"Gov. David Paterson made a shocking statement today. He said, 'New York will be broke by Christmas.' Today, Gov. Schwarzenegger said, 'Christmas? What's your secret? How'd you last so long?'"

"A middle school in North Carolina has caused some controversy, because they were offering to improve test scores for cash donations. For a $20 donation, kids could get an increase of 20 points on any test they chose. It was the 'Cash from Flunkers' program."

From David Letterman:

"Remember the crazy astronaut lady who put on a diaper and drove cross country? She was in love with another astronaut. And I said to myself, well that's what happens when you mix vodka and tang."

"On Monday, Oprah Winfrey and Sarah Palin will sit down and they're going to talk for an entire hour. And I was thinking, too bad John McCain didn't do that with her before he chose her as his running mate."

From Conan O'Brien:

"President Obama is traveling to Asia this week. He'll be making a trip to China. While he's there, Obama plans to visit the Forbidden City, the Great Wall, and America's money."

"Forbes magazine just came out, and they've released a new list of the world's most powerful people. President Obama is number one. Interesting, yeah. And apparently, Oprah is pissed off."

"Last night, on 'Larry King Live' ... former Miss California, Carrie Prejean, refused to talk about her sex tape. She got angry for Larry asking what she called, 'inappropriate questions.' Yeah, apparently Larry kept asking, 'Do you want to see my sex tape?'"



Immigration issue between America and Mexico

From Jimmy Fallon:

"President Obama left this morning on a ten day trip to Asia. He assigned his kids some important chores. He said that while he's gone, Sasha has to walk the dog, and Malia has to walk Biden." –Jimmy Fallon

"When he returns, President Obama is expected to finally reveal his strategy for the war in Afghanistan. The strategy is called, 'Don't ask, don't tell.'"

"Speaking of 'Don't ask, don't tell,' Congressman Barney Frank said yesterday that the military's 'Don't ask, don't tell' policy will be repealed next year. It's going to be replaced by the policy, 'Yeah, we knew.'"

"Big news, Lou Dobbs announced on his show last night that he was leaving CNN. No word on where Dobbs is going to go next, but I think we can all rule out Telemundo."

"They're not welcome there. Dobbs said he's leaving because he wants to engage in constructive problem-solving. He's already solved one problem, for CNN."

Campy Colbert "claims" Lou Dobbs' audience share. BTW, does he also claim Lou Dobbs' dementia...?

Welcome to The Social Poets!


Welcome! Your online coffeehouse of conviviality, The Social Poets, is a sociable welcoming place to inspire creativity and share our poems. We even comment - convivially - upon society's foibles, misdeeds, defeats, triumphs and inspirations.

Here you will also find a welcoming atmosphere of writing ideas to help improve your writing, encouragement to polish your own writing as you grow in your life awareness and poems by various new poets - that would include my fellow poets.

Make this your comfort zone to grab a mug of steaming coffee, a relaxing herbal tea, a tall wheat beer with an orange slice, a lemon martini or a huge glass of good deep red wine (this is how you can identify me...) and settle in and discuss how to solve all the problems of the world!

Comments are welcome. If you want me to take a look at your website or blog then feel free to send your notice to: warriorspearl@gmail.com. If it fits any of my blogs I’ll be glad to include your link. Thank you for your cooperation!
