[qanda]

Maverick - 0
Taxes - 18
Wealth - 9
War - 2
Oil - 9

I am cracking up! I'm sure he lost count...

[Minimus]

1. Counting "Being a jerk" is so funny!

[steve2470]

[Chichiri]

3. Good score. Pretty close to my own.

[Jennicut]

4. Your son is funny. That was pretty much my tally too. Lots of jerkiness.

[Mira]

5. K&R Love it ! Reminds me of

election 2000. Bush v Gore. 2 am. My 8 yr old grandson sitting in the corner, staring at the TV, saying:
"And I thought this was going to be boring!"

[qanda]

6. LOL

Kids are the best!

[AnneD]

7. I work with kids on a daily basis...

it is amazing what they pay attention to. BTW, if kids could decide the election-our kids here are solidly in the Obama camp. The reasons are very insightful, he likes kids, he makes funny faces, he talks good, family member thinks he is good.....

I remember the first president I knew about-John Kennedy. I liked him because he had a daughter just like me and he liked his kids. And actually, those things make sense-even now, because he had young kids-maybe he wasn't so quick to challenge Russia to use atomic weapons.

[SunsetDreams]

14. ha ha ha, you have a smart kid there!

[Kalyke]

15. LOL!!!

My 16-month-old daughter calls Obama, "Bama," and she calls McCain, "yucky."

:D

[Lucky 13]

20. LOL!!

Yucky! Yeah, that about sums him up.

[Arugula Latte]

16. I'll bet your son and my son would be friends if they knew one another.

My kid does stuff like that, too. He has a great sense of humor, loves Obama, and is very in tune with the race. After the VP debate he and his cousin entertained a big group of us for about 20 minutes non-stop answering questions as Sarah Palin would. :rofl:

[Usrename]

17. He calls 'em like he see 'em.

:rofl:

[SoonerPride]

18. Did he say "my friends" ??

I think he replaced that with "Joe the Plumber"

[Rocknrule]

19. In 2004

I kept tally marks for every time * said "9/11" "terra" "Saddam" and "freedom"

[renate]

21. "being a jerk - 63"

Give your son a :hug: from me for being so funny!
