Exploratory Committee

Post by Dale »

I am announcing today that Chiff & Fipple will be forming an Exploratory Committee for a possible run for the 2008 Presidential race. Our platform:

1. No door bell sounds allowed on TV. They make me get up off my couch and got to my door.

2. One universal connector to charge all cell phones.

I know you brought that one before! Can't find it, so, I guess I know where it is. :)

You have my vote on the 1st issue, but as I already have a universal (USB) cell (mobile) phone charger, I'm agin the second.

I move for banning all telephone rings on TV as well. I can always tell if it's the TV, but my wife asks "Is that ours?" EVERY TIME!

I dunno about this. Do you have better legs than Hilarious, and can you prove it? :boggle:

What about voters who do not have door bells, televisions, or cell phones (like me)? What's in it for us? :-? ;)

But the people want to know: what about the Political Forum? Huh, huh, huh? You can't expect support unless you take a stance on one of the most contentious issues of the decade, sport.

Well, you;re only slightly less qualified than Obama. You have a chance after all. You are NOT going to stay home and bake cookies.

Dale, you are an honest a forthright man who I would have no problem supporting for the presidency. But . . . If you are thinking of a 2008 presidential bid, being honest and forthright is not going to be enough. You're going to need money, lots and lots and hunks and whacking great piles of the stuff.

I can't think of a better reason to put the Politiconocosunocopadabadahoco forum on pay-per-view.

I'd very much like to pork-barrel onto the first point by adding a ban on police siren sounds in any music or commercial spot that could be aired during drive-time radio broadcasts... And the Cell phone charger has to use an alternative fuel source. :thumbsup:

That shouldn't be hard to prove.....


As to Dale's platform so far, I'm all for it!

But, Dale, and I mean this as a compliment, you just don't seem, well, sleezy enough to be President!
