    Just please don’t tell everybody when ya’ll are gonna kill Barry. He has been the Cinderella 40-something in my deathpool at work for a while now.

    isn’t McCain’s mom 139 years old? I think Vinegar Joe is low-balling us

    According to DeathClock.com, Gramps is already taking the dirt nap.

    Dying physically is one thing. I mean Teri Schiavo would technically be still alive if they hadn’t pulled her plug, right? Joe the Jew needs to be more specific.

    I would gladly endure ninety-eight more years of WALNUTS! if Droopy would just drop dead tomorrow.

    Is that in dog years?

  7. Well, Reagan lived into his 80s or 90s or something, right? BUT, his brain fell out in his mid-70s, so say it ain’t so, Joe!

  8. SayItWithWookies says at 5:44 pm, October 27th, 2008

    McCain’s gonna live to be 85 at least — but Joe’s career is over in eight days.

    Pssssh, doctors, who cares! Talk to GOD! What does GOD say, Joe?

    “I know, cause I’m gonna kill him. Heh heh heh.” - Joe Lieberman

    Say it ain’t so, Joe!

  12. take the under

  13. I can’t wait until that weasel is kicked out in the cold.

    In a totally unrelated point, I am eating the worst tasting Crepes in the world – my mom discovered healthy eating so it’s glutton free. I am feeding it to the neighbor’s cat – I am so going to hell.

    Sadly, Joe Lieberman’s credibility has been dead for nearly eight years.

    Actually, you shouldn’t believe anything that idiot Lieberman says. That shit took $30 bucks from me to help my love life, and all he did was light a candle and chant and nothing happens. I now rely on Senators only from Louisiana for my death forecasts.

    Hey, I agree with Joe—he’d know better than anyone. I mean his head has been giving McCain a colonoscopy this entire election.

  18. Good old In-trade, you can get action on anything.

  19. masterdebater says at 6:38 pm, October 27th, 2008

    Dear Joe,
    When will I die? See, I’ve got plans, so I need to know.

  20. MadMangosteen: Yeah, McCain’s mom is a sprightly Mittens-bashing 96. When she was the Maverick’s age (72) she was probably kickboxing Mormon missionaries or something.

    Of course, when his dad was his age, he’d been dead for two years.

    And when his grandpa was his age, he’d been dead for eleven years.

    And they’d probably both still have run better campaigns.

    And made better Presidents.

  21. SayItWithWookies: He can always run hadassah sales at his temple.

  22. Birdcrash says at 6:48 pm, October 27th, 2008

    That’s great! He can serve two terms, and still have five years to cash in, or in W’s immortal words “replenish the old coffers”.

  23. Jukesgrrl says at 7:12 pm, October 27th, 2008

    When JoeBlow calculated that, did he consider in the equation that Cindy will kick her loser hubby to the curb if he doesn’t get her a White House to redecorate? Everybody knows single men die younger than married men. And Mrs. McLame already has her divorcee mansion in California ready for a move-in.

  24. Chronotope says at 7:22 pm, October 27th, 2008

    You missed the best part:

    “Next, Lieberman noted that the GOP nominee has a 96 year old mother, and proceeded to relate a story in which he said she looked great, and she asked Lieberman if he was ‘trying to pick [her] up.’”

    Oh Lieberman… you and your womanizing ways.

  25. Chronotope: Lieberman used the exact same line to deflect the “Is Sarah Palin ready?” gotcha question in New Hampshire as he did in Tampa:

    Oh, and he agreed that Obama was a socialist, too:

    Is Walnuts! my grandfather? Grandpa is 89 — 90 in April — & a WWII vet, recovering alcoholic (sober 40+ years), with history of heart disease, & his two brothers & father all had colon cancer (two died from it). How gramps keeps ticking is a wonder.

  27. whiteasasheet says at 8:55 pm, October 27th, 2008

    Joe dies November 5.

  28. BobLoblawLawBlog says at 5:26 am, October 28th, 2008

    I can’t wait for John the Candidate to meet his “bestest fwiend,” Joe the Opportunist November 5. What’s the over/under on the number of interviews Joey Boy will give the week after the election using the words “phenomenon” and “once in a lifetime talent”? And the number of times McCain will beat him with a mallet for doing so?
