Default What's up with that?

The Stimulus Bill provides for an even handed distribution.

The movers and the shakers will get the stimulus and the taxpayer will get the bill.

and,

Hilary Clinton, Barbra Boxer and Michelle Obama are flying passenger jet to evidence their alliance with the common man.

The jet loses power and is in danger of crashing.

Clinton reaches into her purse, takes out and puts on all her jewelry saying that when they see how rich she is, they will rescue her first.

Boxer takes off her blouse and bra, saying that when they see how well endowed she is, they will save her first.

Obama takes off her skirt and pantyhose, saying that they will save her because they always search for the black box first.

Republican, Democrat or Independant, this joke sucked. As usual, just another political opinion hidden behind a "joke".

All this guy knows how to do is post jokes. If you can't contribute to the forum with things about Italy, why are you here?Did you quit your day job?

"Republican, Democrat or Independant, this joke sucked. As usual, just another political opinion hidden behind a "joke"."

"All this guy knows how to do is post jokes. If you can't contribute to the forum with things about Italy, why are you here?Did you quit your day job?"

Now, now let's not be to hard on the old boy. Unlike the rest of us this man is independently wealthy or so he so proudly told us. Would seem he's got a lot
of extra time on his hands.

"I have been all over the world both in war and in peace; I came from a poor Italian imigrant family and today I am independtly wealthy."
"I did not arrive at this point in my life by accident."

And your point is? Now that I'm rich screw all the rest of you people?

You would think that somebody like this that came from a poor family would be more simpathetic
to the poor and middle class that the rest of us on this forum belong to. Seems he forgot where
he came from. How quick people forget. His poor imigrant family is probably turning over in their graves.

Default Easy guys!!

WOW ... easy guys on the dude... he may not post anything but in the jokes forum but still he is active at least, it doesn't mean I like his jokes(well some of them are funny) but we need something light, something that draws a smile on our faces (like jokes). see it from the other way around if he didn't post any in this section well no one will do!! since he is almost the only one who is posting jokes.. and he is sharing it with us... so what??

chill out guys

I see both sides.

I do not find this joke funny at all, but I'm not a typcial woman where jokes like this bother me. I strongly believe in the freedom of speech just as long as a person isn't threatened. It pisses me off when someone says something rude or mean to me personaly, but I guess that still falls under the freedom of speech. No one said that people couldn't get pissed off while exercising your freedom.

On the other hand I believe a person should be part of the whole board and not just posting political jokes that is actually a political statement. It doesn't really give a good impression.

I'm a very opinionated person so I just thought I would add my opinion. lol

I have no problem with people posting jokes, or if that was all he was posting. Its the genre of jokes he is posting. They are clearly a way of him voicing his political opinion without actually getting into it. He does not contribute to the Italian theme of this website at all.
