Oh, man. That one's going to come back to haunt him.
Oh, wait... that was his endorsement of Bush I was thinking of.

ummm... am I the only one who can't read what that sign says?
Posted by: Dan | August 30, 2004 at 07:28 AM
Sign says, "Dave Barry for President. It's time we demanded less." Same sign in all the other endorsement pics. I'll just add that I don't think we'll get a smile that genuine from McCain while at the Bush convention.

john mccain is crunk.

Talk about a future blackmail photo. Dave should get thousands of these printed up and pass them out to delegates before McCain speaks. Would that be cool, or what? Then do the same before Bush speaks.

d.x.,
Yeah!!! I'm with you, man! Ummmm...even though I don't know what a crunk is.
Is it slang for a crunchy hunk?
A crooked skunk?
A crazy drunk?

Depending on the audience I think you could also pass this off as Benjamin Netanyahu.
Posted by: Drew | August 30, 2004 at 07:56 AM
That's the most sincere smile on a politician's face I've seen all year. Have they started the free booze in New York already?
Posted by: Kilmeny | August 30, 2004 at 08:08 AM
Crunk = crazy drunk

Quite a merde-eatin' grin on that guy

You know, my husband is still insisting I should write in Dave Barry, but who should be the vice pres write in?
Posted by: Anne | August 30, 2004 at 10:09 AM
Judi should be the VP, of course!
Posted by: Jamie | August 30, 2004 at 10:16 AM
After months of deliberation, I've decided to formally announce my acceptance, under the Barry administration, as U.S. Ambassidor to Mars and Secretary of Cheez-Whiz(tm). I won't bend to powerful lobbyists like the Velveeta council, with their fancy jets and big money. I stand for truth, justice, and congestive heart failure.
Thank you for your support.
Neener.

George W. Bush,
Dick Cheney, and John McCain,
Those Republicans...
And John Forbes Kerry,
Edwards, those Democrats... Schmeh!
Dave for President!
Posted by: D'Artagnan | August 30, 2004 at 11:07 AM
I was thinking Judi might be better suited to being Secretary of State...
Posted by: Anne | August 30, 2004 at 11:16 AM
"Thanks to Ted Habte-Gabr, who can get anybody to do anything"
Um, Dave? Isn't it about time you harnessed this power for something altruistic, something that would benifit all of humanity?
Like do you think Ted could get a Dukes of Hazzard reunion show put together?

Now you're talking, cbol!

What are you guys using for a camera over there at the Barry HQ for World Domination?
Did you take the lens cap off only to replace it with saran wrap?
Posted by: Chaz Stevens | August 30, 2004 at 11:30 AM
ok... we've got Dave as the brains in the White House.. I think the VP should be chosen on looks alone.. its only fair... if the VP has brains as well, it would be too much for the country to handle... so I nominate George Clooney for VP
*Disclaimer* This is not an indictment on the state of Mr Clooney's brains.. I'm sure he's very bright, but that's not why I buy movie tickets

Evidently, though, Ted continues to have trouble inciting the Vowel Gods to show him a little mercy.
Posted by: D'Artagnan | August 30, 2004 at 12:18 PM
Oooh, if you're going on looks, Kat, then why not go all the way and go with Hugh? Oh, wait, has to be an American born... umm... Okay, then how about Orlando Bloom? He would have appeal to the younger crowd. Dave might win on teenage and college womens' votes alone!
Posted by: Anne | August 30, 2004 at 01:34 PM
How do you pronounce 'Habte-Gabr'? Is that Welsh?
Posted by: Lmd33 | August 30, 2004 at 02:19 PM
McCain / Giuliani in 2008. Who;s with me
Posted by: fred | August 30, 2004 at 02:48 PM
Does anyone else think the Senator looks like one of those hostages who hold up today's newspaper (at gunpoint) to prove they're still alive? Ted, what did you have to do to get him to hold up that sign? Or did you just ply him with drinks?
Posted by: Jeff Meyerson | August 30, 2004 at 04:17 PM
No drinks were involved at all. No coercion involved with any of the endorsements. I just asked him. He laughed and did it with zero hesitation. His people weren't as crazy about the idea. Then his staffers pulled me aside to investigate the sign.

I thought McCain's drawing attention to Michael Moore this evening was kinda ballsey. That is, until Fox News pointed out that Michael Moore was probably sitting on Dave Barry, who had not been heard from all evening! Let us know that you're OK dude!
Posted by: Brad | August 30, 2004 at 08:20 PM
Pronounce it like it sounds, of course: "Happy Gator."
While I'm here, let me say that "Ted Habte-Gabr," among other things, anagrams to "The Bat Badger." Just something to keep in mind.

I always preferred McCain/Ellios.
Posted by: Dumb Joke Guy | August 31, 2004 at 08:26 AM
Anne,
I think that Orlando Bloom is British, sorry. :o(
How about Johnny Depp for VP. After the election of Barry/Depp, we could have National Talk Like A Pirate Month
