Powell explores new comedy career: "U.S. Rejects Ukraine Vote Results" lol

He says with a straight face... "U.S. Rejects Ukraine Vote Results" Citing reports of fraud and abuse... (laughter from the crowd)

Other reported Powell comedy tour quotes:

"We know about voter fraud and abuse, we invented it and we own the rights to it!"

"We have patents on voter fraud and we will sue these commie bastards if they try to overthrow an election without using US made voting machines designed for this purpose."

"This is intellectual theft and we will not tolerate it!"

I am glad to see he has found a new career besides killing for a living. His new comedy act shows a lot of promise!

1. ROTFLOL. Yeah, that was pretty much my reaction...

And I just LOVED how he emphasized it was the COUNTING of the votes that concerned him the most. Riot.

3. I think Powell chose his words quite deliberately

And fully realized their irony. I doubt the WH was all that pleased.

You know what I believe Colin there was probably voter fraud.

He told us how it works based on experience. Damn don't you hate when some one steals your idea.

Also, I want to know why the Ukrainians did not arrest Lugar for formenting a Civil War. How long would a Ukrainian official last if he made those allegations in Florida or Ohio?
