Poll question: Who should replace Scott McClellan?
Tony Snow is rumored to be a replacement. Perhaps the Repugs need to look at Hollywood or a list of Repug celebrities who have stated publically that they are Repug Kool-Aid drinkers.

Who would they choose?

3. Ben Stein
It would be hilarious watching him brief the press in that monotone of his--repeating over and over "I cannot comment on an on-going investigation" or "the president has complete faith in Secretary Rumsfeld."

4.  Judge Roy Moore. The recent polls show him getting buried alive in
Alabama's governor's race, and so he'll be in the market soon anyway.

And it would be entertaining to hear a raving lunatic fundie nutcase throw a Biblical spin on press questions.

It would set fundamentalism back so far it would begin to reflect the time it actually does reflect -- the Dark Ages.

8. Any tobacco company exec or lawyer will do
After all, they are looking for a rabid loyalist and a pathological liar all rolled up and stuffed into one suit.

11. Take Grace Slick off your list.
Edited on Wed Apr-19-06 04:36 PM by Zen Democrat
She gets tagged as a Republican by people who don't understand the radical humor of her remark to Ben Stein that she's a life-long Republican. If you don't see the sarcasm in that remark, you don't know Slick.

She's an PETA activist, by the way.

14. I'd probably watch more of the briefings if Shannen Doherty did them.
Easy on the eyes, and she's not very good at keeping her cool. Explosions are fun.

18. Have Dennis apply and then turn him down...
...just so he gets more depressed...

Imagine his twisted analogies to the usual response. Hmmm, it could be his perfect gig.

30. I think he got suckered into the Raygun Facade and never came back
Some people join the Repugs like it's a country club membership...or a sports team...they never can seem to let it go and see what is really happening.

32. A "pull string" talking doll with pre-recorded comments.
Edited on Wed Apr-19-06 10:44 PM by TankLV
It would be just as good as the last asswipe.

Or a naked male model/porn star - it would give us a reason to watch.

No - wait - how 'bout a pair of naked male+female models/pornstars! Double the enjoyment!
