So we're all headed for the Gubmint Detention facilities--the ones Halliburton
Edited on Tue May-20-08 10:35 AM by Jackpine Radical
has been building. We're all on the Main Core list, and we're going. But cheer up, folks. Maybe they'll put us all into the same camp. I can see it now--

Will Pitt keeps trying to quit and go home.

And the Magistrate sets up a kangaroo court where he can preside as we sue each other for defamation and whatnot (like in that Grisham novel The Brethren)

And there is a REAL dungeon for the conspiracy theorists

And Kpete is always somehow getting hold of new bits of information from outside and spreading them around

And Nance Greggs has us all in stitches with her daily monologues--except of course some of us already ARE in stitches as a result of their resistance efforts

And DemoTex, always wearing an old flight jacket, spends his nights working on his tunnel

And Omaha Steve keeps trying to unionize the guards

And Cali paces around the compound, tripping over things and bumping into walls, saying, "This isn't real, you idiots. It's only a dream."

And Skinner keeps wandering around with Grovelbot in tow, asking for donations

1. There's a "Main Core" list?
How do I get my name off that list?

Is there a number I can call?

2. Have you seen this story?
It seems to be all over the web. Google "main core list" if you want more info.

3. And ColbertWatcher keeps posting...
...pictures of Stephen Colbert all around the camp.

Others wonder if he has an infinite supply, kinda like the Howells from Gilligan's Island and their never ending wardrobe...

10. And of course the mystery is deepened by the fact
that Colbert himself is with us, undedrgoing waterboard-enhanced political re-education (the motto of which is, naturally, "No Homegrown Liberal Terrorist Left Behind.")

4. And, of course, anyone who is not on the Main Core list ...
... is automatically suspected of being a covert operative.

16. Wonderful contribution.
I thought, on a day like this, marked by the terribly sad news about Teddy, that we needed a bit of a distraction. I wrote it while I was trying not to cry.
