Unlike other charming southern presidents, I promise to always use glass podiums to assure the american people that my interns are busy working for the american people.

All your sins will be forgiven, if you vote for me!

Having lost another primary race to John Kerry, John Edwards has decided to leave politics and embark on a new career path. Luckily his haircut almost assures that he will have a promising future as a tele-evangelist.

 

[SkeLeton]

Calm down people, those missing Kerry votes are not my responsability! I didn't send someone to steal them so I could win the election!

"Hey, y'all, I'm a Democrat! I can campaign in black churches and no one will say a word about church and state! Can you imagine Bush trying this at St. Pat's? Hee hee!"

Senator John Edwards, in a stunning bit of showmanship, turned the election down a bizarre path today with an unusual incident and the following statement,
"Unlike a former Democratic President who let his (here the Senator Air Quoted) "Presidential Staff" (here the Senator un-Air Quoted) distract him from the people's business, I will, in order to maintain the public's confidence that I have my mind totally focused on the issues of concern to America, I will constantly wear a dermal absorption patch of saltpeter, thus rendering my desire for hot interns to near zero, I will wear the patch at all times during my term, or terms, as your President, and I will take one more precaution to ensure that I serve the needs of the American worker, and not my own base and vile needs.

I vow, here before you today, I vow to the American voter to remain true to the mission of creating jobs, good jobs. Jobs, you can be proud of. In order that I will remain free from distraction I will insist that I be sealed from the waist down in this unbreakable plastic chamber designed by NASA. The only key to this chamber will be on a gold chain around my wife's neck. These measures will ensure that I remain focused like a laser on getting people back to work that were displaced by the Bush depression."

The audience at the Ebenezer Baptist Church remained silent until Edwards said, "No, I'm serious...really..." Then most of the crowd began to laugh uproariously as Edwards stepped into the Plexiglas chamber and Mrs. Edwards climbed on stage and secured the lock. He was then loaded on a two-wheel Pepsi blue soda dolly and moved backstage. Senator Edwards could not be reached for further comment. The crowd remained somewhat dumbfounded, yet they also seemed to be in an irreverent mood for a church congregation. They sayed in a good mood for another 15 minutes after he left. The Reverend Hollingsworth completed the service after regaining control of the crowd.

Tamika Walsh of Joinersville and a member of the choir commented, “He’s going to get a lot done with that idea of his and I bet we get some good jobs here, but I don’t understand why he had the dove etched into the glass. What was that all about?”

Upon being reached for comment former President Bill Clinton said, "No ****? He actually did that? No? You're pulling my leg, right? You have a film clip? Please let me see it." After watching the clip, the former President just chuckled for several minutes before returning to his private office shaking his head.
