Oompa Loompa Doopity Doo!Barack Obama stands one-hundred feet tall and is made of golden chocolate. So his magical transition podium is a sky-high phallic monument to his greatness and tallness, so all the short ladies he keeps appointing to his Cabinet, for laughs, all look like that terrible Martian from the Flintstones (?!) cartoons with the bug antennae coming out of his fat head.

YOU MUST BE AT LEAST THIS TALL TO RIDE THE PRESIDENT-ELECT.

…the way Hillz is grasping those mics you would think she has had a little practice.

The Pumpernickel December 1, 2008 at 2:25 pm

He did say he was going to be the one in charge. This is one way to assert dominance, I guess.

As Cartman would say, “Respect my authority!” And South Park remains to be culturally relevant.

[re=188120]The Pumpernickel[/re]: So I finally clicked on the blog link you post 300 times a day with your comments. After clicking on it, I just want to formally and explicitly state that your blog “sucks” in pretty much every way possible.
The main reason for such harsh Judgment? You say “I” or “I’m” about 500 times. Literally. 5.Hundred. Times.
It is such a self-promoting “blog spot,” whatever that is, that I hope that you are banned, forever, without penance.

That is all.
The fact that you drove me to say “I” or “me” or “I’m” in this comment attest to the damnation your blog deserves.

As my sexist old dad used to say, short ladies’ heads provide a nice place to put your beer while they’re, uh, performing secretarial duties.

The Cold Sea December 1, 2008 at 2:32 pm

I don’t know why nobody has thought of the Great Gazoo as the Secretary of Transportation before. It’s a home run.

Oh ok. It’s part of his rivalry with Tom Cruise. If he takes all of the short gals for his cabinet, Cruise won’t be able to find any co-stars. He’ll have to resort to cameo appearances on Psych.

Short People got no reason
Short People got no reason
Short People got no reason
To live

They got little hands
And little eyes
And they walk around
Tellin’ great big lies
They got little noses
And tiny little teeth
They wear platform shoes
On their nasty little fett

Well, I don’t want no Short People
Don’t want no Short People
Don’t want no Short People
Round here

Short People are just the same
As you and I
(A Fool Such As I)
All men are brothers
Until the day they die
(It’s A Wonderful World)

Short People got nobody
Short People got nobody
Short People got nobody
To love

They got little baby legs
And they stand so low
You got to pick ‘em up
Just to say hello
They got little cars
That got beep, beep, beep
They got little voices
Goin’ peep, peep, peep
They got grubby little fingers
And dirty little minds
They’re gonna get you every time
Well, I don’t want no Short People
Don’t want no Short People
Don’t want no Short People
‘Round here

The Pumpernickel’s kick-ass Tomato Basil Hummus

Ingredients:

* 2 cups chickpeas, drained and rinsed, or soaked if using dried
* 1 can (15 ounce) whole, peeled tomatoes
* 2 tablespoons of tahini
* 2 ½ tablespoon fresh lemon juice
* 2 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
* 1/4 teaspoon cumin
* 1 clove of garlic, crushed
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
* 2 ½ tablespoon basil, chopped

Preparation:
In a blender or food processor, blend the chickpeas. Add tomatoes, olive oil, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, cumin, basil, and salt until the ingredients form a creamy, paste-like consistency. Pour the mixture into a large serving bowl. Cover and refrigerate for one hour.

Enjoy!

[re=188394]The Pumpernickel[/re]: I think you may be missing the point. No one really wants your “kick-ass” hummus recipe. The only part of your post that is Wonkettable is “creamy, paste-like consistency”.
