It's a relief to finally see some humor around here....
In particular the story about the fake turkey...the one on the platter, not the one holding the platter. Although, one could ask the question, how can you tell the difference? Even the freepers have picked up on the story and are blaming DU for blowing it out of proportion, when it is Matt Drudge, one of their own, that has it on his web page. It's hilarious!

I hope we can find more humor around here. Someone posted an excellent post from The Onion this AM about Alan Colmes' nephew. We need more of this stuff. It's good for the soul. :)

3. The "freeper infiltrating Clark Meetup" thread was a riot!
We had great fun with that one too. You're right, kentuck, humor is always a good remedy.

There are many here with a great sense of it, too.

8. I know... DU seldom fails to get me laughing...
There are some very clever people here with a great sense of humor. I hope we can always maintain that humor even if times get difficult..

5. So lemme get this straight
They spent taxpayer money to fly a turkey out to visit the troops and bring a turkey with him, but one of the turkies is fake. I'm dead sure which one of them is fake, but are the grapes that came with the turkey fake as well?

9. It hasn't yet been reported but I think you may be breaking the story?
The grapes were plastic too? Have they no fucking shame!

12. If I were advising any of the candidates....
I would tell them to describe Bush's policies as "turkeys"...It would be great word association with an idea.
