30. I was debating staying home Thursday


there's just no way I can hold my nose and vote for the Dem who votes against the People EVERY TIME.

he's got the damn seat sewn up, anyway.

But registering Repuke and voting for Basil?

I may have to think about that.....goes against everything I've ever believed.

i've NEVER registered Repuke!



But Basil!

:rofl:

37. I've been trying to figure out who's the least bad of the Republicans.
But they're Republicans, they all suck.

6. He fixed the flag at Mill Park
Things I done for my citizens

8) Fix the Flag at Mill Park to fly right at a high cost of 12 stun by stun gun and now it fly right thank to 311.

But at what expense? I'm not sure, but I believe he might have been assaulted by a stun gun twelve times while he was righting a wrong. A few of those blows might have been to his head, but he DID get it to fly right. Is 311 code talk for something I should know?

:shrug:

20. 311 can mean KKK
Some people believe it's related to KKK, or white supremacy, because the 11th letter of the alphabet is K, and three times K is KKK.

In Basil's case it could be a code for his IQ, or 3 x 11= 33, but that might be a tad high for poor Basil.

I also saw a police code saying 311 was the code for homicide. But different police departments have different codes.

45. 311 is the number to call for city or county services for something
outside the normal services, i.e., if one needs help removing debris resulting from a fallen tree as opposed to regular trash collection. What services he requested for a flag I don't know.

The Marceauxs used to be our local jokes but now Basil has gone viral.

I think that should be a qualification for our elected officials - do you have a neck?

8.  I almost choked on my coffee
Edited on Tue Aug-03-10 07:04 PM by rbrnmw
I tried to read his website by the time I was half way through I could no longer see or breathe from laughing so hard. When Quayle was vice preesident I said that has to be the dumbest politician in the world, then came Dubya said the same thing,then Sister Sarah,""" So then they spring Alvin Greene on us I thought that is it for sure Then I find out about this guy and I hope but will never say never that is the end of it. Reminds me of the movie Idiocracy

12. I like him! STOP bashing Basil!
Basil is like what's inside ALL republicans. They all think that way. Basil is like a scab that was pulled off of the republican body and allows us to see inside. Basil represents ALL republicans. Basil is also good in tomato soup.

It's never a good thing when your campaign ad appears on The Soup. I've been looking for the clip, but it doesn't seem anyone's posted it. :(

44. This Dude Has Zack Wamp Shitting Bricks...
:rofl: :rofl:

All this media attention...and Wamp (love Colbert's associating his name with Don Martin) is about a half step behind Basil in nuttiness. Gotta love Stephen giving him the Colbert bump last night. He's getting tons of free press and publicity while Zack Wamp...well, just the name makes ya snicker.

Come on Tennessee WE WANT BASIL.
