Sorry Phriendly, had to borrow the "ph"...

I'm tossing out a net to catch all the funny graphics and sites dedicated to our sensitivity challenged senator.  I've only collected a few so far, so please jump in with links (or embed in comments) to all the good ones you've seen.

Since this may get big in terms of file downloads, all funnys are on the flip....

This has nothing to do with Allen (pitin - 8/16/2006 1:39:06 AM)
But just saw this and had to post it somewhere.

The picture below is from Katherine Harris Senate race campaign site Photo Gallery, with the following caption,
"Broward County Young Republican Club Meeting"


Perhaps someone should explain to her what "young" means.

Why have you been mostly quiet through this Allen thing?


I was out of town... (pitin - 8/16/2006 11:28:27 AM)
I was in North Carolina (w/o internet acess) until Tuesday morning, by the time I got back the story had already broken.  I think the reaction of the blogosphere has been strong enough that everything I would have said has already been said.

I'll chime in with, macaco, is a recognized term in spanish meaning a genus of Monkeys and also a racial slur, maybe he thought Sidarth was Hispanic.  I get confused for being Southern Asian all the time.

Does anyone have the clip, not linked to You Tube. You Tube is blocked from work (the only site I have ever found that it).
Regardless, if anyone has it.. POST IT :)

Setting: The Secretary General’s office inside the United Nations building in New York. SEC-GEN KOFI ANNAN opens the door and walks in with two men, CONRAD BURNS and GEORGE ALLEN.

ANNAN: Well, Senators, glad you could stop by today. It’s a pleasure to finally meet you both.

ALLEN: And it’s a pleasure to meet you, Bulongu. Welcome to America.

ANNAN: Excuse me?

ALLEN: Bulongu. I was referring to your bangs. That’s what the Allen family calls bangs.

ANNAN: But I don’t have —

BURNS: Let’s cut the crap, buddy. Frankly, the Senate thinks you’re doing a piss-poor job with this place. Piss-poor!

ANNAN: Well, I’m sorry to hear that, but the United States isn’t the only nation with a say here, you know.

BURNS: What’s that supposed to mean? We got jurisdiction over you, pal. You might be based in New York, but federal law trumps state law.

ANNAN: Actually, the United Nations enjoys extranational status. Like an embassy.

ALLEN: Extranational? No no no. You’re in America now, Shabubu. Welcome to America.

ANNAN: Shabubu? Senator, I -

ALLEN: Your shoes, Mr. Secretary. I was complimenting your taste in footwear.

The door opens and in walks KENZO OSHIMA, Japan’s ambassador to the United Nations.

OSHIMA: Mr Secretary, I — Oh! Sorry to interrupt!

ALLEN: No, come on in, Bip Bap. Come on in, and welcome. Welcome to America.

ANNAN (a little annoyed): Allow me to introduce Senators George Allen and Conrad Burns.

OSHIMA: Greetings! What are you gentlemen doing here?

BURNS: The question is what you guys are doing here, shithead. I got the answer: Not a thing! You’re not doing a goddammed thing!

ANNAN: Mr. Senator, I have to ask you to control your temper. This is a place for diplomacy

BURNS: Aw, horseshit. There’s fires all over the world and you guys aren’t putting out any of them! You’re just a bunch of lazy firefighters!

ALLEN (to Oshima): Here’s the thing, Ping Pong…

OSHIMA (to Annan): Ping Pong?

ANNAN (to Oshima): Don’t ask. (to Burns and Allen) Gentlemen, it’s been a pleasure meeting you, but I’m afraid I have to cut our visit short. We’ve got a lot to do tonight.

BURNS: Listen, fella. I’m the one wearing the cowboy hat here. I get to say when the meeting is over.

ALLEN: He’s right, Nanoomu. That’s the way it works in America. Welcome to America.

An aggravated ANNAN storms over to the door and opens it wide.

ANNAN: That is it. Goodnight, gentlemen.

BURNS: Aw, horseshit. (pause) Well, say goodnight, Georgie.

ALLEN: Ooga booga, Mr. Secretary. A grand and glorious ooga booga to you, and to the world.

The set goes dark. The end.

Even the Rich Man Times is nailing Felix... (Loudoun County Dem - 8/16/2006 12:28:33 PM)
http://www.timesdisp...

They even include the fact that Felix's mother was born in North Africa (which the WaPo refuses to include).

Bad news for team Felix... (I'm smiling!!!)

According to the Richmond Times/Dispatch, Bill Clinton is going to fund raise for Webb!!! (smiling even harder).
