@Curves: haha here here!

Jon B.

I wonder if this is the same bot that called me all weekend. If so, then Mr. McCain has one too. I am glad thats its all over and I can now answer the phone without fear.

Curves

Odd... That robot doesn't look anything like those others guys on our dollar bills...

@Chromeo: Unfortunately, hope has only been used as a viable energy source when implemented as part of a hybrid "hard work/hope" engine. There are engines that run purely on hope, but the people that use them often don't take into account that there is a hard work plant somewhere that has to supply that energy.

@Jon B.:
I got an email to donate this morning!

Dude, you won the election! Now they are called taxes!

jdbaile3

I wonder how much Hope is by the barrel? I need about 12 gallons of hope to get home from work...

Chromeo

My hope for smaller government and greater freedom for America got run over by that robot... excuse why I attack the guy with the remote. Maybe that photo is symbolic... Ayers has the remote and Obama is the robot.

Jrsy is the dude, playin' the dude, disguised as another dude

@OpenPotion: Oh quit being so melodramatic over all of this. America will be fine in the long run.

LeanderSnookie

I'm sorry to break it to you, but that robot can't be president in eight years. You have to be 35.

Rabid Penguin

@Jrsy is the dude, playin' the dude, disguised as another du...: EEE... AHHH... OHS

MilktruckHeist

@OpenPotion:

It's okay, let it all out big guy. The tears will dry eventually.

Hah.

Alchemistmerlin

@Rabid Penguin: Age is measured differently in robot years. In eight years he'll be sixty-threven, I mean sixty-three.

Jrsy is the dude, playin' the dude, disguised as another dude

@Ibelieveinsandwitches:I had forgotten that robots age much faster than people do. Which raises the question: should robots only have two year term limits as president?

Rabid Penguin

@Rabid Penguin:

His age doubles every 18 months. my calculations put him at 48 in 8 years.

@Jrsy is the dude, playin' the dude, disguised as another du...: WOULD YOU LIKE TO BE A PEPPER TOO?

Ubik2501

@Jrsy is the dude, playin' the dude, disguised as another du...: You're all crazy. All technology lives to be at most, 2 years old before it becomes old and outdated!

Reil(aos)

@Rabid Penguin: No, the term limit is still based on human years. This just means he'll need to be overhauled sooner.

Jrsy is the dude, playin' the dude, disguised as another dude

@Ibelieveinsandwitches: No, it's less than that. They age approximately 7.8 years to our one.

Jrsy is the dude, playin' the dude, disguised as another dude

sigh. i can't wait to endure 4-8 years of this kind of rhetoric.

srdailey

@LeanderSnookie: We'll see. Or not.

GadgetPlay

@srdailey: Would have said the same thing had McSame won.

So *sigh* right back at ya, pumpkin.

UncleArgyll

@Reil(aos): The Obamabot is a far more advanced and complex piece of machinery. I mean c'mon, the things runs on hope so that tells you something right there..

Jrsy is the dude, playin' the dude, disguised as another dude

Spongebob Squarebot? Spongebot Squarehead? Yeah, that's it.

GadgetPlay

will robots care if there is a tax increase?

winterwarloc

I love the sign... POWERED BY HOPE!

Because his campaign sure in hell wasn't powered by POLITICAL TOPICS.

Hope of what? Hope of minorities "rising above" as Obama put it in his speech last night....and nothing more.

JEmlay

@winterwarloc: Only if it makes more than $250,000, in which case it might get a tax increase.

Mpls_Mikey

@JEmlay: How about hope that the country would rise above partisan bickering and actually work together to fix problems. You have clearly shown that that will be difficult to achieve.

Mpls_Mikey

@UncleArgyll: First off, the United States as we know it (i.e. the one under the Constitution) didn't exist until 1787.

Second, I don't see any way that things could be worse under Obama than they have been under Bush. And since Obama is waaaaayyyyy smarter than Bush and McCain, I have much more optimism.

I'm sure after Obama has helped fixed the economy and restored the constitutional freedoms that were eroded by the Bush Administration, and when we are riding on another boom economy like we had under the last Democratic president, we will all hear you apologize.... right?

Mpls_Mikey

@Mpls_Mikey: Or maybe he is able to think for himself and he's come to the conclusion that the people Obama has chosen to surround himself with all his life actually matter.

Rabid Penguin

@OpenPotion: You almost seemed credible until your last sentence. Now I am free to ignore you because you are unable to think for yourself.

Mpls_Mikey

@johnnyabnormal: If he did I'm sure you'd help Obama put legislation in place to take that hanky from someone who earned it to give it to UncleArgyll. ;c)

Rabid Penguin

@UncleArgyll: Need a hanky?

johnnyabnormal

@johnnyabnormal: Why would I need a hanky when I have your shoulder? ;)

UncleArgyll

@Mpls_Mikey: Why would I apologize? Because I declare the nation dead? Technically, I could bump the date of death back to the 80s and it would be far more accurate.

I will apologize when more Americans show real political intelligence, not some regurgitated partisan crap and make a 3rd party happen for once.

I like how all you Nobama pleebs instantly think that just because someone is anti Obama they are pro McCain. If they are anti Obama and McCain, they must be pro Bush.

TBH, this rotting country hasnt shown me a good politician since AuH2O.

But since you brought up intelligence... show me some sources showing Obama, Bush and mcCains intelligence so I can verify your claim. Else,... you're just another moron.

UncleArgyll

@Rabid Penguin: Nah, I'd just make sure he was able to keep more of the money he already earned so he could afford one for himself. :)

@Chromeo: I'm driving a Prius! I only need 2.5 gallons of hope for the drive...

@Rabid Penguin: thank god you and OpenPotion are out-numbered 52-46.

@UncleArgyll: Goldwater was a second grade "leader" at best.

The sign should say "Vote early, Vote Often"

@evilkingteapot:
I'm sure most potheads can.

JEmlay

@Mpls_Mikey:
If you think those are our biggest problems then you have a lot to learn.

What actualy shows you that this will be hard to achieve is the fact that we have multiple "PARTIES". Wrap THAT around your head.

JEmlay

@Lucifer_Cat: You have me all wrong. I've always thought that our government should be filled with spineless liberals who care more about themselves and controlling what people can and can't do. The phony compassion of liberals is something I've always prided myself in... and it appears that a lot of America agrees with me. Personal responsibility, hard work, and genuine compassion for your fellow man are over rated anyway.

Rabid Penguin

I so want to see that thing in the robot wars arena. I would be laughing my ass off as it got pummeled.

Uncle Remus

@Rabid Penguin: "and it appears that a lot of America agrees with me."

Maybe less than you know:

johnnyabnormal

@johnnyabnormal: First of all, you obviously didn't get my statement. And I don't think you understand that graph either... I had to have a friend explain it to me, so I doubt you got it the first time!

Rabid Penguin

@johnnyabnormal: Fair enough I suppose... I do give you a lot of crap :c)

Rabid Penguin

@Rabid Penguin: Oh, I understood what you said. I'm just teasing you...which isn't nice. I get the douche bag award for today.

johnnyabnormal

@Rabid Penguin: All in good humor...and without it, we would have no humility or laughter, would we?

johnnyabnormal

@johnnyabnormal: Where is that map from? As in, which website.
