    …if that is where his casket is, then yes!

    NOT ENOUGH OPTIONS——->

    I am an American Free Market person I NEED OPTIONS LIEBERMAN IS BUS DRIVER NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME.

    However I am surprised that the only state that said Lieberman is the bus driver is North Dakota.

  3. He gets folded up and stowed away under the seats.

    I heard that Walnut’s penis resides in Vicki Isemen’s vagina.

  5. Happy Fun Ball says at 1:06 pm, June 16th, 2008

    The early returns from Indiana are surprising. All along it was polling pretty favorably for “No way, it’s all talk.” This is definitely one I’ll be watching late into the night.

  6. How to tell: If the Depends diaper trailer is hooked up to the back of the bus, then yes, he’s livin’ on da bus.

  7. RuperttheBear says at 1:12 pm, June 16th, 2008

    AngryBlakGuy: and the soil of his homeland.

    Are you sure you didn’t mis-type that, Ken? Are you sure it didn’t stop at “Does John McCain live?”

    If by “live” on the bus you mean he’s stored in the freezer to keep him from spoiling, then yes…he “lives” on the bus, in the same way my leftovers “live” in my apartment.

  9. Bah. You should’ve asked ‘where does McCain pee on the Straight-talk Express?’ A) out of the window, B) Bedpan, C) It Depends, etc.

  10. loudmouthredhead says at 1:20 pm, June 16th, 2008

    AxmxZ: But can he be used as a flotation device in an emergency? Or as a food/fuel source?

  11. choinski says at 1:21 pm, June 16th, 2008

    Get a bus, Morans!

  12. freakishlystrong says at 1:22 pm, June 16th, 2008

    loudmouthredhead: Damn you, I was at lunch, ya beat me to it fair and square!

  13. loudmouthredhead: No, it’s actually pretty useless in the event of emergency: comes unglued at the seams and starts squealing.

  14. loudmouthredhead says at 1:24 pm, June 16th, 2008

    RuperttheBear: I heard the secret Service had Van Helsing experience an “extraordinary rendition”

  15. El Bombastico says at 1:24 pm, June 16th, 2008

    Sandee says:

    “Is it the bus that Barack Hussein Obama threw his white grandmother under?”

    Ha ha ha ha. Were you high when you conceived of this?

  16. Vanity Smurf says at 1:26 pm, June 16th, 2008

    Many 72 year olds live in their motorhomes at least part of the year. McNasty is just another regular guy from his demographic.

  17. Powell tells B.C. crowd he might vote for Obama — Colin Powell, the former Republican secretary of state, says he is not ruling out a vote for Barack Obama, the presumed Democratic nominee for president. While Mr. Powell served in the administrations of two Republican presidents, he suggested yesterday his support for presumed Republican nominee John McCain is not a forgone conclusion…

  18. Q2: Duh. Colin wants to vote for a white man he can trust.

  19. loudmouthredhead says at 1:30 pm, June 16th, 2008

    Vanity Smurf: Wait…so if elected, would he migrate the white house every winter to either FL or AZ? What would we call the bus then? I’m taking nominations!
    My ideas: Death Star 1, Horseless Carriage 1, Hearse 1….etc etc.

  20. freakishlystrong says at 1:34 pm, June 16th, 2008

    Nesfaratu Express…

  21. AxmxZ: What is your cell phone number?…I want to text message an LOL to you and then go out for a bowl of chili.

  22. Vanity Smurf says at 1:37 pm, June 16th, 2008

    loudmouthredhead: Certainly he would have the first Snow Bird White House. If his good friend Frank Lloyd Wright could drag all his interns to Scottsdale every winter, so can Cunty McTrollope (perhaps the best name for him I’ve seen used yet).

  23. Truculent says at 1:39 pm, June 16th, 2008

    “No dear. He lives in a bus station, with all the other deranged people. Don’t stare at them. It’s impolite”

  24. RuperttheBear says at 1:40 pm, June 16th, 2008
  25. edgydrifter says at 1:43 pm, June 16th, 2008

    loudmouthredhead: Meanderer 1

  26. Q2: Keep the LOL, just give me the chili.

    /is hungry today

    ““Does John McCain live on his bus, the Straight Talk Express?”

    John McCain’s still alive???

    Shit, I thought it was some really bad cryo-robo thingie. I just assumed the spazzy jerkisms were an electronic malfunction of some kind.

    I saw more lifelike holograms at the Canadian National Exhibition twenty-five years ago. And they smiled more realistically too.

    So much for hi-tech progress, huh?

  28. freakishlystrong says at 1:48 pm, June 16th, 2008

    RuperttheBear: Yes, an “Express Caleche”

  29. ForeignSickSpecialist says at 1:50 pm, June 16th, 2008

    They told him it was a moving theater box. He sits and comments on the images flashing on the screen. Every now and then he’s heard saying things like “green, pretty,” “blurry trees,” and “corn.”

  30. freakishlystrong: Or, if he wants to pander to the tree-huggers, an “Express Draisine”.

  31. Reefpilot says at 2:02 pm, June 16th, 2008

    The answer is a resounding yes, he does. He lives on it because he can feel the pulse of America so much better on the road, with the wheels of the bus thundering beneath his tortured loins, not unlike a twilight-era Steinback with his adorable French poodle. It’s a contemporary republican travelogue, Travels with Cindy. He keeps the persnickety little beast in Laura Bush’s Airstream, lovingly nick-named “Cuntinante,” tied onto Straight-Talk’s metal ass with hand-knitted American flags.

  32. PoliticalGraffiti says at 2:04 pm, June 16th, 2008

    am i the only person offended by his “straight” talk? the republicans really like to stir shit with the queers, huh?

  33. norbizness says at 2:11 pm, June 16th, 2008

    I can’t believe there’s a domain called news.aol.com … hell, I can’t believe AOL still exists.

  34. shortsshortsshorts says at 2:32 pm, June 16th, 2008

    Somehow the commenters on Ken’s poll are bringing it back to Obama being black, a “snake oil salesman” and all around EVIL. What the fuck?

  35. ManchuCandidate says at 2:36 pm, June 16th, 2008

    shortsshortsshorts:
    There is a reason why AOL = Assholes On Line

  36. He needs to live in a bus as he has to be constantly on the road to take in the mail and water the plants at all of the dozen or so houses he and Cindy live at.

  37. Cicada says at 2:37 pm, June 16th, 2008

    shortsshortsshorts: *ahem* news.aol.com. That is all.

  38. ladymacbeth says at 5:16 pm, June 16th, 2008

    shortsshortsshorts: DUDE!! you posted there!!! you are v v brave wonketteer and should be awarded a snark medal for exposure to hazardous levels of stupid and old bitters.

  39. mookworthjwilson says at 5:26 pm, June 16th, 2008

    I love Susan…she is such a sweetheart…norbizness: Since she still uses aol, I think Susan believes that you can only go to websites that have AOL in their URL…
