    There was recently a "UFO" sighting near Boulder, Colorado and the following information was posted:

    Moderators: please do not move this to the political forum, I'm sure it is just a coincidence that they are all "right wing Republican scumbags". :rolleyes:

    The implied insult to sheep is entirely uncalled for.

    Isn't Google Chrome's Wikipedia extension cool?

    Just hovering on most of the eight listed:
    - at least THREE born before the Roswell incident
    - NONE born in 1948
    - Only Bill O'Reilly born in 1949
    - NONE born nine months after Roswell

    Sir, the accuracy of your opinions matches those on The Rush Limbaugh Show. :p

    Proof...

    Yeppers... teh OP IS providing us with PROOF that a moronic nincompoop with a hatred for accomplished honorable conservatives can be taught to type and cut and paste crap from other nincompoops...


    Either that... or it is a failed attempt at humor from a wannabe leftist comedienne...


    Either way... it was a rather poignant un-pleasantry unfounded in fact, uncluttered with reality, and unable to to give rise to a giggle from the perspective of political humor...




    But alas... it is becoming increasingly obvious I am paddling alone in a three-man canoe in an ocean of leftist leaning poor humor mongers (just barely in sight of other canoes carrying the thoughts of other conservatives that are also members here)... so it'll happen again... I'm sure of it.


    If you find another joke on the web Bra... read it and at least give a cursory attempt to validate the information before you post it... just saying...

    Already handled by Snopes:

    snopes.com: Politicians Born After Roswell


    My list of March 1948 births (subset from Wiki)

    James Taylor, Billy Crystal, Wolf Blitzer, and ..... Al Gore!

    From that, I conclude that Aliens are a pretty entertaining lot.

    Jimmy Cliff arrived on April 1st (assuming that's no joke) so I guess his mom was just a bit overterm.

    I admit that when reading the OP, it seemed a bit odd that Cheney and Quayle were of the same age. But I didn't immediately fact check. My excuse was that I was inflamed by that gratuitous sheep thing. So annoying.

    The Snopes article that you link to mentions that only Al Gore was born around the time of what a "Roswell" baby would be born at. The writer guesses that perhaps that Al Gore was the first politician that would be subject of the jab...that it then encompassed liberals and then got transfered to conservatives. Yeah....appears to be a bad, old joke, that has been in a full circle!

    XVP Gore's BD is on the wiki page.

    For me the joke goes full circle when someone (me perhaps) makes some connection between wooly sheep and Jimmy Cliff's dreds.

    But no, as cousin Tony suggests we should focus our attention here on Aliens. They have gotten overwhelmingly bashed in film. Even when they look pretty good (Natasha Henstridge In 'Species'), whoa buddy, run quick.

    Well I don't think we have to worry about offending them with our silly entertainment. I personally don't believe in UFOs (the odds of an advanced alien race having developed the technology centuries before, and then finding us...a spec in outerspace....that's pretty astronomical). Besides, I like Warner Herzog's quote (In "Incident at Lochness")...where he asks: "Why is it that aliens only seem to rape overweight white women in America? You never hear of them raping anyone in a developing country." Then again, if aliens have been visiting us, I guess we know the White House will be the first building to go:eek: New York and then LA would be next...and then maybe they'll think they would have gotten all the world's centers: if they go by Hollywood movies at least:D

    Re: Proof...

    Gotta watch that broad brush favorite tool of yours and your pals', Ammo, using up an entire paint store's inventory in deprecation like that, when your very own rock thrower last year thought it was a hoot and insulted those of us who didn't think so. Now you've gone and spilled the paint of Bozo all over him.

    I have a similar problem. Sometimes I get propositioned by ladies of questionable reputation who are prepared to offer me certain 'favours' in exchange for the cab fare. These 'ladies' seem to match the above description and are never ever foxy minx's or milfs. :( lol

    I feel so violated! :eek:

    How long after Roswell, Tony????

    Might we have a bit of cheek DNA, just to make sure that you're pretty much terrestrial? Or, what does your blood do, confronted with a hot-wire loop? (ref The Thing, 1982)

    This is getting way too fundamental. I'd like to make sure that all our PC bosses are 100% earthly. If not, where might this fine website take us?

    To Serve Man ???

    :eek:

    GrumpyC makes an excellent point. An Alien (Y/N) quick-test kit is needed. Who here can provide it?

    The taxi fares pass, then by all means let them take you for a ride.

    I demand to see their birth certificates!!!

    Isn't it possible the aliens changed all their birth certificates?
    Have YOU seen the originals?

    The aliens could have traveled back in time and changed the newspaper birth announcements.

    And as OP, I apologize for my insult to sheep.

    I don't think I've LOLed as much with a music parody as much as the original "What if god smoked canibus" parody:

    I tried doing a quick google for it...but the more recent versions of this song are done by someone else. way way long time ago I got a mp3 of this song where the singer sounds exactly like Joan Osborne, but with the alternate lyrics.
