2010 Race
Comments off
I announce my candidacy for the President of these here United States for 2012. As both a cat and a physician I think I appeal to a broad base of felines and physicians. After carefully studying the wide-eyed swooning of brainless drones in this election, my platform consists of the following:

I love this story.
If Obama wins, expect more of this. You ain’t gettin’ what I got. The Socialist States of America can kiss my ass.

Spread It Around!
Comments off
I was thinking about Obama’s pledge to ’spread the wealth around’ and I don’t like it, BUT, I would be in favor of him ’spreading motivation around’ as I am particularly lacking it at this time (as are many that will vote for him). In this video I see a whole bunch of guys who […]
