You all are right, of course, George, the third brothy ugler -- slightly better looking, but even dumber.

So how come the left hand picture (of the three) is smaller and higher up than the other two?

After all my depressing financial posts of the last few days, I had to lighten things up a little, and this was just TOO perfect. Glad to provide a little levity.

OK this is funny. I posted the link to this post and now the first thing I see when I open my facebook page is your face! I thought I'd see Bobby Jindal and twin.

Did I tell you that he used to live in our subdivision? Well, some of the residents put up signs on either end of our subdivision that said, "Boyhood Home of Bobby Jindal." They were repeatedly altered/defaced to read, "Boyhood Home of Booby Jindal."

They were finally removed.

My 87 year old mother can't remember his name and calls him "Jingle."

I think Ted Koppel's feelings are going to be hurt.

Whoa. I haven't been this creeped out since I saw a modern picture of Phil Spector.

Bobby, Alfred, W, Ted Koppel, Phil Spector -- Gosh now we're up to five. C'mon gang, give me three more, and we can do our own OctoMom thang!

Bryan -- Yeth, I did.

Tom why don't you send this to Ms Maddow. This is just the kind of thing she likes to giggle at too. How childish.
BTW, regardless of the likeness too Alfred, have you not noticed that Jindal and Obama look fairly similar. I you had any intellectual or journalistic honesty you would have searched for a pic of Obama that could have passed for a likeness of Alfred also and posted all three with no words . But that would not gotten you attention and giggles. And of course before you posted it you would have had to realize how silly it is.
Of course if I would have posted Alfred and Obama, no doubt I would have been just ignored by this crowd. And I doubt the few conservatives here would have been cheering me.

You and others here seem to have a huge need to continue to bash any conservative politician in spite of the fact that your party now has total control of the government. Seems to me that that you may be worried that the conservatives may be able to put forward someone more likable than Bush. That in fact not all conservatives are right wing nut jobs and they do NOTget their message from Rush Limbuagh. Are you afraid that we can put forward someone that can swing 3% of last years votes. That all it takes you know. 3% of the middle that are non committed to party.
I get the feeling you just got everything you wanted and are already worried about losing it.

Joseph -- Good to see you conservatives still have since a great sense of humor. At least I didn't post a picture of Jindal in a monkey suit laying dead on the sidewalk with two grinning cops standing over him.

As for the liberal fear factor, the only thing I'm afraid of is that you and your kind are so discerning and compassionate you'll vote like a school of fish again and give us the next w. But I'm comforted by the fact that your buddy Rush is doing everything he can to turn off another 3% of the voters who actually have a mind.

Tom - I have no idea what you are talking about the cops and dead people. After thinking about it I have to assume that someone must have photoshopped something like that with Obama. If that is the case it should serve as evidence that where ever it showed up is not where I get my info. And if we both really wanted to be humorous here, I would have posted Jindal and you would have posted Obama.
And you seem to want to insist that I and everyone like me is a Rush fan. You really want to believe that all of us are that crazy because if we were we would never have any chance of anything. But you know that we are not all nuts. Nor are we all religious moral zealots. Nor are we all party committed. Some of us just happen to disagree with you about social ideas and we don't have to be raving lunatics to disagree. But you seem to need to put us all in that compartment to make yourself feel better. And you clearly believe that half this country are all too stupid to count for anything because they chose not to vote the same as you.

And I don't believe your humor story. I have no doubt that I you have nothing but disdain and contempt for Jindal just because he disagrees with you.
You have such prejudice (and I mean that literally; pre judge) towards anyone that disagrees with you that I am sure you are convinced you can spot a conservative by looking at him. Well I can tell you that my look, behaviors, mannerisms and lifestyle wound never fit your notion. We don't all fit your mold.
We are not all unreasonable. We have our opinions. They are as valid as yours and it takes no less than an arrogant ass to assume
differently.

Yikes. This is beginning to remind me of the E-mail conversations we used to have with my husband's family. The funniest little thing would send family members flaming.

Sorry you are dealing with this Tom.

Amazing, isn't it! The strange thing is, George Bush looks a lot like Alfred E. Newman, too.
