Obama Win Causes Obsessive Supporters To Realize How Empty Their Lives Are
Charley and Paul beat me to the Get Your War On punch by five minutes. Fabulous. But won’t embed, sadly.
From Daniel Kurtzman:
Ladies and gentlemen, Barack Obama is our new president. And I think I speak for most Americans when I say, anybody mind if he starts a little early?” –David Letterman
“I would like to say one thing to Senator John McCain. Listen, senator, you don’t show up for me, America doesn’t show up for you.” –David Letterman
“But right about now Joe the plumber is meeting with his transition team. They’re going to help ease him from obscurity back to oblivion.” –David Letterman
“At the end of the evening, the electoral vote count was 349 for Obama, 148 for McCain. Or, as Fox News says, too close to call.” –David Letterman
“How about Sarah Palin, ladies and gentlemen. Right now on her way back to Alaska. And I’m thinking oh, I wouldn’t want to be a moose now.” –David Letterman
“You know who is really, really happy that John McCain did not win last night? The boyfriend of Sarah Palin’s daughter. He doesn’t have to get married now. ‘Whew, thank God!'” –Jay Leno
“Obama thanked the President for his call and for all he did to help him get elected.” –Jimmy Kimmel
“The real challenge, though, is for Joe Biden because he’s got to figure out how to get Dick Cheney out of the vice presidential mansion. As you know, Dick Cheney is armed and has a history of shooting old men.” –Jimmy Kimmel

play around with the html to get it to embed. Whenever it says anything like “=true” or “=always” delete it. There’s a little trial and error to it, but it will post.

I know about the “Whenever it says anything like “=true” or “=always” delete it.” approach, thanks, but that didn’t work in this case. Have a look. In any event, I’ll ask the SoapBlox gods.

p>”No, in fact he said ‘they are so irritating I don’t even want to deal with them'”
