Re: Oh, Republicans, You Are Funny
Cover-up of what, exactly?
Were you asleep all week?
Did you not notice the vast difference between the talking points that were issued by this administration before the election, and the truth that is just now coming out?
This looks pretty much the same as what Nixon did--it is the cover-up, not the original incident, that gets you in the most trouble.
If you want to pursue this, start a thread. This does not belong in "Humor."

Why don't you start a thread and point out these differences and show how this is indicative of a coverup.

Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts
"God did it" is not an argument. It is an excuse for intellectual laziness.

Not a "Humor" theme

The rare political moment I agree with Coyote.
It goes no further here. Someone start a new topic if you wish to pursue it.

Or something like that.

There's no inaction like inspired inaction, spurred on by enthusiastic apathy and prompt procrastination.

Republicans hate their genials? Well that explains a lot.

He doesn't know, it's been covered up. But we know that there was a cover-up, because why else is there no evidence of malfeasance? Answer me that.
A department manager is called into the Director of Patient Service's office at an elite East Coast cancer center. The Director holds a graduate degree from an Ivy League school; he is an otherwise apparently intelligent man.
Director of Patient Services: Serious accusations have been lodged against you.
Department Manager (me): What are the accusations?
DPS: I can't tell you that.
DM: Who made these accusations?
DPS: I can't tell you that.
DM: Were you offered any evidence to support these accusations?
DPS: Your accusers suggest that the total lack of evidence is proof of your evil genius. (He really said "evil genius"--I soon had a handmade T shirt so adorned...).
DM: Giggles.
DPS: This is no laughing matter. The accusations are serious ones.
DM: Exits, laughing.
It turned out that several erstwhile employees in my department had observed me wire-tapping their computers with new network cables.
Ever since, I have endeavored to leave trace evidence of wrongdoing in order to protect myself.

At one time or another I have worked for the Post Office and the RCMP. Both of them fingerprinted me and both of them, in the true spirit of bureaucracy, managed to lose my fingerprint records.
The RCMP lost them twice. The third time they fingerprinted me, the officer told me that he couldn't find any ridges on my fingertips. (I mentioned that I sometimes do carpentry/woodwork so they might have been worn away by handling rough lumber and/or sandpaper.)
So I might have been a master criminal - until DNA was invented.

I have it on the good (if badly dated) authority of the State that diverse organic compounds have rendered my DNA unintelligible.
This would explain my children.
NB: After an FBI background check, the Army granted me a fairly high level security clearance. My faith in J. Edgar was badly shaken.

what's wrong?
We haven't had a joke here in almost a month. Is everyone ok? Are we sad?
Hey if this means everyone is at the gym working out and eating right, and you don't have time for EvC humor, then I'm all for it. Carry on.

Nah - it's because of too many chips (fries to you).
I get out of breath trying to reach the keyboard.
