Παγκόσμιος Πρόεδρος;


I spent a depressing hour last night watching a debate about the (Cypriot) 2008 Presidential Elections. Depressing, because I couldn't understand more than a few words of what they were saying.

It's so much better in places like Britain where we have elections at short notice. In countries where they have fixed elections, they bang on about it for months in advance. The Americans spend years on it, and then no-one votes anyway.

One day, we'll have a World Federation or something, and it'll be even worse to elect a World President. So, I'm compiling a list of candidates well in advance.

  • Arnold Schwarzenegger - This needs no explanation. His film-making days are over. Help keep it that way, and vote Arnie. His lack of English should make his speeches nice and short, always a good quality in a politician.
  • Italian Porn Star - All elections need one of these. Provides for more entertaining photo opportunities. Of course in the end it's policies that count, and hers will be well-formed and silicone-free.
  • Boris Johnson - The honest politician. Says what he thinks, which may lead to the odd war now and then, but this will give the military something constructive to do. Vote Johnson and prove that the World has not lost its sense of humour.

Whoever wins the election won't actually have long to do too much damage, since I'll soon stage my coup and then rule with a benign dictatorship. If it was the Italian porn star, then I may let her serve under me.

I've not fully worked out all of my policies yet, but the State will be taking over green bean production, and every citizen will be issued with a tin per week. Football (i.e. Soccer) and Telesales will be outlawed, and everyone will be happy. By order.

And we won't need any more of these annoying and boring elections.

Jean Knee:

The point about my candidates is that they're all entertainers, of one kind or another. We need more entertaining leaders.

You're quite welcome to nominate candidates. Father Al's out, though...

Jean Knee said...

Father Al would so win, of course someone's brother would cheat and mess it up for him, besides which I'm a republican

Jean Knee said...

You have to admit he is entertaining

Brian o vretanos said...

Absolutely. But Nobel Laureates and people who have attained such glory as Al don't stoop to fighting elections. Especially when they've a history of losing them.

He's already running the world anyway...

Jean Knee said...

Okay then, How about Kinky Friedman? he lost here in Texas but that was all rigged too, ask elastic bout it, she has the in scoop

Brian o vretanos said...

Jean Knee:

Just looked him up on Wiki, and he seems ideal.

I don't suppose you've got anything like our Monster Raving Loony Party in the US, though...

Jean Knee said...

oh we probably do, give me more info on it and I'll let ya know

Bee said...

Hi Brian, how you doin'? [eyebrows wagging]

Brian o vretanos said...

Jean Knee:

I had nothing different to contribute - it's all being said.

Bee:

Don't wag those eyebrows at me - it doesn't work, you know...

I'm fine, thankyou for asking.

Bee said...

Well that's what you say cuz you're so far away but no man can resist my unibrow wagging!

Jean Knee said...

quit bragging, I tell you! do you really have a unibrow?? first a hawt husband and now this.

but my FIL is dead so, top that one!

she scores!

Brian o vretanos said...

Jean Knee:

That's mean. Can't you think of anything better than that?

Bee said...

No jean knee, unfortunately no matter how hard I try I can't grow a unibrow... so sad.

Brian, what's wrong with what she said? If you had my FIL... ::shiver:: never mind I don't wish him on anybody!

Brian o vretanos said...

Not a lot, I suppose, except it's not nice to gloat about the dead...

Anyway, I'm going to leave you ladies to it, now that I've finished slaving over tomorrow's post.

Jean Knee said...

we can talk to each other like that cuz we bonded over Dr. Phil hate.


I was insanely jealous of the unibrow

sorry I gloated about not having a FIL to fight with. someday it will be you

calm down Brian, if you can't be irreverent about the dead who's left,

Bee said...

ha! Now I do wish I had a unibrow!
Oh well, maybe my next life...

Jean Knee said...

Bee said...

Dude, let's look for it in the strip joint!

Okay, I am late (as usual) but...the guy in the picture looks like he could be Donald Trumps brother!

Chris:

It's difficult to describe Boris... Apparently he's something of a sex-symbol, though.

His father is almost exactly the same - in character, not in looks.
