american presidential hilarity

[alex]

so ive been vaguely following the goings on in america for the presidential nominations, and all i can say is what the fuck?

is this some kind of joke that americans play to trick the rest of the world into thinking they are all lobotomised at birth? I dont want to sound elitist but how in the fuck do half of these people get past their first interview? over here if someone made a claim similar to being from John Waynes hometown and it then turns out its john wayne GACYS home town, that would be it. the fucking end of their political career. one of our political parties top guys, next in line to be top dog, got dumped to the bottom of the party list because he watched a few pornos in hotel rooms on taxpayer money.

yet in america it seems that to even be in politics you need to have had at least one affair, and a few convictions under your belt along with a "casual" attitude to the seperation of church and state will only help your case.

I mean, I guess im glad that our country is now getting in bed with china- for all their faults they know how to run a country (with an iron fist) without running it into the ground, but jesus fuck. its like a train crash, i just cant stop watching in horror.

The spectacle points me towards conspiracy. This is the only thing my brain can actually accept....for reals. *cries*

Eh, every new person gets a lot of TV time early on, then they do poorly after the first couple of state caucuses and primaries, and then vanish and only the subtly diabolical remain.

what, like that lady who can see russia from her house? pretty sure she hung around for a fair while last time.

and even then they are still ALREADY in parliament. thats bad enough.

I know they have a seat in the UN, but is New Zealand a real country? It's tough to take a place seriously when the Providence, Rhode Island sanitation department could kick the shit out of them in a war.

Ah, but she came in late! Out of nowhere, after the primaries and all, to be the vice presidential candidate. And her star's already fallen.

Sure. With the House of Representatives, any lunatic can get in for a little while if they put their mind to it. Luckily, the terms of office are short and turnover fairly high.

I doubt it, NZ SAS are pretty fucking good.







At fucking sheep. Oh yes. I went there.

They have shitty military infrastructure about 11,000 troops total. The undergrads at the University of Texas could overrun their military with bbguns and molotov cocktails.

All the countries say something similar, but Providence is still undefeated.

[DKJr]

Honestly though when was the last time anyone said "Oh shit don't do that New Zealand might come after us." The last time time New Zealand was relevant Lord of the Rings Return of the King was coming out in theaters.
