If any members of Congress were driving on the I-80 in Berkeley yesterday, they may have seen this hilarious sign that makes the argument that, uh, somebody came on our dress. So it’s time for impeachment! Well, hell, it worked last time. Sort of. Okay, it didn’t actually work last time, but at least impeachment proceedings actually started and thrilled the nation for a few weeks! That’s something. And then Bill Clinton continued to be the most popular president ever and we were all rich — okay, some of us were rich — and oh my god we weren’t all losing our houses to foreclosure and the dollar was worth like nine Euros and Al Gore hadn’t even invented global warming yet.
Some of the signs I put up today … [Tales of the Freeway Blogger]

That's Berkeley for you. Everybody probably IS wearing a blue dress.
I really should drop this thing off at the dry-cleaner tonight. Hold on I've got Linda Tripp on my other line.
Point of order:
While I understand the sentiment, wasn't the crystallized protein stain on Monica's dress the result of a blowjob and not getting fucked?
I thought it felt kind of sticky outside this morning.
Devil with the Blue Dress, Blue Dress, Blue Dress. Devil with the Blue Dress on...
At first I was excited that this was an impromptu sign on a freeway somewhere in Middle America (Atlanta? Chicago? Dallas? Denver?) and that this truly represented the national zeitgeist right now, and maybe, just maybe, there was an irrefutable national demand for impeachment, but... Berkeley/Oakland is about as far removed from the pulse of the nation as you can get. You could put up a sign calling for Castro/Chavez '08 and people would honk their blessed little hybrids in approval.
I'm in Berkeley, we hated Bush before it was cool. A few years ago somebody stenciled the word "Bush" under the "stop" on all the stop signs within a couple blocks of the UC campus.
@procrastinator, esq.: Oh, this person's been doing this all over for years, not just Berkeley. And has been encouraging others in many American cities to do the same.
I knew it was some commie city when I saw pedestrian walkways over a busy highway. Here in Gilded Age America, we make the peds run for it.
@FreshCliches: an excellent point. Besides, I never thought of Monica as a victim of Bill, particularly. Linda, perhaps. This particular hippie is getting his metaphors confused.
@FreshCliches: Yeah, how do you get santorum out of a blue dress?
@rptrcub: My local stop sign vandal adds "virginity" to the sign. I'm happy to oblige when I can.
I do look forward to the day when demands for impeachment replace all those tattered flags that have been decaying for over five years.
Wait, doesn't this only work if Bush can get it up?
And if Bush can get it up, what's with the over compensating invading Iraq shit?
Thank you Mr. President for just ejaculating on our national dress and not having the whole Iraq thing blow up in our face. You are so thoughtfull. You, and that other gangbangger, Dick.
Trust me: The only thing good in Berkeley is "Top Dog," the anarchist hot dog place on Durant on the South side of the campus.
The other "weenies" in Berkeley aren't worth eating -- particularly given the "unmowed undergrowth" on the Female of the Species, If-You-Know-What-I-Mean-And-I-Think-You-Do.
@Pelagius: Using a mixture of 2 tablespoons of ammonia to one cup of water, blot the stain to remove residue and rinse with cold water. Repeat if all of the stain is not removed.
If we really were all wearing that Blue dress, The Gap wouldn't be up shit-creek.
If the Dow continues to plummet, we'll see these signs hanging on Wall Street.
I must say, America, that blue dress really brings out the red in your eyes.
And no, I'm not just saying that to get laid...
must be a bitch to get cum stains out of hemp...
@Neilist:

Wait... I like unmowed undergrowth. Oh, how I worry for today's youth. I fear that the proliferation of internet pornography and its Sinead-O'Connor-upside-down ideal of female beauty is like a pubic hair neutron bomb that will have the dastardly effect of denuding generations to come. Before long the term "munching carpet" will be as quaint and outmoded as the Geneva conventions at a U.S. POW camp, and hair pie will be thought some obscure dessert that a Samurai cook once concocted on "the Iron Chef" out of coconut shells and sea-cucumber pudding.
@Whattheheck: I was getting tired of his whole "I'm gonna surge, I'm gonna surge " thing anyway.
Tastes kinda...malty. George, you been hittin' the bottle again?
Good thing I look fabulous in blue!
@David Flores: You sir are a true gentleman and possibly even a scholar. It ain't a trip to the Y if you don't come back with some hair between your teeth.
David Flores wins.
@Pelagius: "Yeah, how do you get santorum out of a blue dress?"
Um, tell him you're a catholic priest and you're there to give him his penance? He'll drop his dress like Babs on prom night.
Oh, you're not talking about Ricky.....never mind, then.
I'm with David Flores - I want as much grass on the playing field as possible.
That's one thing I hate about this presidency - girls just don't understand when I say "I like bush."
@Neilist: Sir I think you have been had, normally girls, no matter how hairy dont have "wennies"....even in Berkeley.
i am outraged at this innuendo. his premature ejaculations never leave his pants.
and giuliani hasn't got a blue dress.
@David Flores: Hear! Hear! All the pseudopedophilia is getting out of hand. Yo quiero una mujer
Yeah. Pussy is supposed to be hairy!
I don't get this trend of Kojak Crotch
@Ken Layne "Okay, it didn't actually work last time..."
What do you mean it didn't work? Clinton was impeached, on Dec. 19, 1998. He wasn't convicted, but the vote to impeach resulted in a successful impeachment.
Castro/Chavez '08! WooHoo!
@Neilist:
I love their hot links!!! I have no snark, I just love Top Dog
I can't speak for the women, but in my experience, about 90% of the men in Berkeley shave their pubes. Even the ones who tell me they're "straight".
I think we may have a popular plank for whatever presidential nominee is brave enough to adopt it: If I am elected, I promise you, America, that I will bring the hairpie back!
Guess who teaches at UC Berkeley? John Yoo, who laid out the legal groundwork for the administration's use of torture.
Yep, we're all granola, peace-loving hippies down here.
Why is it when Bush surges in Iraq, we here in America get covered in jizz?
this, while tangential, is at least marginally related to the state of the clinton marriage. apparently the bridal industrial complex has decided to energize its base by launching www.bridesdecide.com, a political site for, um, brides? whatever, the important part is pictures and memories from the weddings of mike gravel, the clintons, mike huckabee, and tommy thompson (who?). in light of recent fawning over early pictures of the clintons, thought wonketeers might enjoy this: [www.bridesdecide.com]
@Freedumb: A New York, sauerkraut, and hot mustard.
And a cute hippie chick with lots of piercings on the side, please!
What, exactly, does this trendy meme mean?
If they don't support impeachment accuse the males of being cross-dressing homosexuals, and females celebrity-chasing whores?
All this liberal fascism confuses me.
@freedumb
This is even better: on my local SoCal neighborhood stop sign someone wrote "your mother from getting fake tits" underneath the "stop." It never fails to make me laugh.
@Impeachy: Oh, right. That's like Clinton not "having sex with that woman" we all know that impeached means. It means we get a new president. That means the person vacates the office. That's what fucking impeachment means here and every where you see those home made signs. Shouldn't you be dying on a dusty hot road in Iraq some where?
@Pelagius:
I'll take this one step too far and kill the thread:
Simmer the dress in a large pot of water with a pinch of salt for at least two hours.
Remove the dress, squeeze the liquid back into the pot.
Add one chopped onion, minced garlic, capers, and three sliced potatoes. Salt and pepper to taste. Continue to simmer for about an hour.
Serve with fresh bread and a nice Barolo.
Finish with a fine cigar.
Ken, you're so obviously posting from SoCal. Nobody in the Bay Area except the Orange County refugees would ever say "the I-80" when describing the highway from San Francisco to Sacramento.
Besides, you didn't even have to say it was Berkeley. It was obvious as soon as I saw the silver Prius in the far-left HOV lane (undoubtedly going 57 mph).
@SanFranLefty: Hey, that was Gore's son in that Prius. He had it up to 62 mph! The CHP clocked him!
(Of course, with all that blow in his nose, what was left of his brain was RACING faster than a Dale Erhart, Jr. bobblehead doll on the remainder table at a South Georgia K Mart.)
I wrote some crap about this yesterday, but the picture is worth seeing again because OH MY FUCKING GOD WHAT EXACTLY DOES IT MEAN???? Also: THE FRENCH PRESIDENT IS ALLOWED TO FEEL UP THIS GIRL!
My friend went to America, got a presidential facial, and all i got was this stained blue dress!!!!
Go Berkeley Go.
Close but no Cigar!
Dear Yanks/Rebs, Its not that the rest of us earthlings don't think that you're a fun bunch, but what with cataclysmic rates of climate change closing in on all fronts, could we chitchat more about decolletage and finally, a scholarly debate on the efficacy of hirstute pudenda?
As to fretting about Regency "Scholars" nibbling at your Constitution, be brave, ask the Roumanians how to redress the balance.
Good Luck
