The rent...
« on: October 30, 2010, 10:43:49 AM »
...is it, or is it not, too damn high?

This is the story of Vietnam veteran, karate expert, epically facially haired wannabe politician, and all-round nutter Jimmy Macmillan who's running for Governor of New York state with the "The Rent is 2 Damn High" party. He apparently has superhuman hearing, too. Policies include support for gay marriage (or even shoe marriage), bulldozing a bunch of mountains in upstate NY to create new land for job creation, and - guess what - lowering rents.

It's less his policies, more the fact that someone who looks like they could once have beaten Chuck Norris in a cage fight is sitting up there getting airtime for this stuff.

Jesus, has Samuel L. Jackson done a Ronald Reagan here?

I keep expecting him to say "The Motherf***in' rent is too Motherf***in' high!"

A man who could beat GOP any day.
I used to do actual stuff around here, don't you know?

I would be ever so grateful if you would visit my YouTube Channel :)

All I want is Samuel L. Jackson to be his running-mate. Then the world would be complete.

Holy guacamole, screw NY; that ticket could get the presidency.
