    D: “No, you fool! You have not yet learned the secrets of the Screaming Attack! Without it, you will never defeat Rumsfeld’s kung fu, let alone Bush’s!”

    K: “My Multiple Position Stance shall triumph over their puny flailings! I go now!”

    D: “Wait! Come back!”

    Let’s get the rock paper scissors thing right

    Paper covers Rock
    Rock breaks/bends scissors
    Scissors cuts paper

    or did someone really learn this differently.
    Anyway, they probably would consider rock paper scissors a better decision than hanging chads.

    P.S.
    Paul, someone showed me that Spongmonkey site yesterday, LMAO, couldn’t resist trying to work it into a comment or caption.

    Dill: The rock paper scissors line was a jab at Dean’s stupidity and Kerry’s inclination to be a cheating liar; just look at the expressions on their faces. I was being ironical.

    “John Kerry saw his poll numbers among African-Americans dip after his attempt at ‘slapping some skin’ with fellow pasty soulless Caucasian Howard Dean turned into a game of pattycake.”

    “In other news, President Bush invited black members of the White House press corps to survey his collection of Gap Band and Luther Vandross LPs.”

    And finally, even Dean’s Jujitsu was ineffective against Kerry.
