A stirring portrayal!

I kinda like it, too.

Mercy bow cups, Czar.

You know – I’d never looked at Napoleonobama full-sized before. Magnifique!

@ JEM:
Did someone say Obama as Napoleon?

Hooray for Pelosi. It’s about time congress got on board with enforcing a serious penalty for people who don’t obey mandates.
But I see a possible flaw in her plan. If we throw sick people who turn up without insurance into the pokey we’ll just have to provide them free health care anyway.
We should execute people who don’t buy health insurance. A clear win win.
Come to think of it we should execute people who don’t buy auto insurance as well. And ones who drive without licenses. And people who pirate youtube cartoon videos. And. . .
At the least we should implement an idea I had long ago but for which I’ve never been able to develop any traction.
Stop with the wimpy boot business for parking scofflaws. Instead, deploy a mobile car crusher in each city. Leave the scofflaw’s car as a neat cube on the sidewalk next to where he parked. Make him responsible for having the cube removed.

Hey I like it – why don’t we kill people for lots of things, then we won’t have to worry about the death panels – everyone will already be dead.

This could be kind of like a French Revolution II, with guillotines, and crazed old ladies in every major city. That whole enlightenment, US revolution stuff is for the birds. Lets go the French route – totalitarianism, Rousseau, Jacobins; hell the dems are more a party to that than to the writings of Jefferson they claim to hold as their own.

I like it. And then Obama can become Napoleon – a very tall version.

@ Sully:
In the episode, Homer was filling in for Smithers, giving Burns his messages after lunch:

Homer: [Reading message 1] You have 30 minutes to move your car. [Message 2] You have ten minutes. [3] Your car has been impounded. [4] Your car has been crushed into a cube. [5] You have 30 minutes to move your cube.

[At this point, the phone rings and Homer answers.]

Burns: Is that about my cube?

@ Howard Portnoy:

I never watched the Simpsons much but anything is possible when I get to free associating, as I was at the time of that comment.

@ Sully:
Sully, is that a reference to a VERY funny Simpsons exchange between Mr. Burns and Homer when that series was still funny?
