Close Encounters of the Political Kind


New reports say that the democrats are consulting Steven Spielberg to help them rebrand themselves. So far the only thing he has offered up is to make Nancy Pelosi look more alien-like, though her plastic surgeon says that is scientifically impossible.

Here are several other jokes that would've worked there:
  • He has recommended that like ET, Harry Reid hide in a child's closet until it is safe to come out. (Better right before the election.)
  • He told house democrats to shape their mashed potatoes into Tea Party Republicans and then smash them.
  • Mentioned that they might want to stop referring to President Obama as "the Minority Report" president.
  • He reversed roles with them and asked for help rewriting the end to "AI."
  • He told them to get the names of the people on Schindler's List and ask for campaign donations.
Got any more for me? Did I skip something glaringly obvious?

1. Umm, the Dems could take advantage of bigoted Republicans by encouraging Lindsey Graham to come out of the closet like E. T. did and go home-o!

2. Insted of making Nancy Pelosi look more aline-like, the Dems should actively strive to use updated computer animatronics and make her appear more human-like. I mean, even the Hall of Presidents has more life-like waxworks.

3. And now you want us to write the jokes for you, Dave?!?!?!? Too much eggnog? ;)

And, of course, that should have been more "alien-like" not "aline-like." Although with Nancy Pelosi's frozen face I guess anything is possible.

Barry said...

And it should have been "Instead," not "Insted." See, that's what I get for making the smart comment in #3.

Did you ever feel that you were having a conversation with just yourself and no one else????

I feel I have nothing to add, Barry, but I'm hanging on your every word.

Does that mean that you'll be well-hung, Hal?

He told them to re-edit their home movies to take out the guns and replace them with cell phones. MAGIC!

Well, as for well-hung . . . Barry, haven't we gotten off-topic? Wasn't this supposed to have had something to do with Spielberg and the Democrats?
