I was looking for the “radical Islamic crazies” option -would that be grouped with “mad cow”, or Oprah’s Oxygen channel?
You forgot Reality shows.
Who are these “radical Islamic crazies” of which you speak? I’ve heard nothing of them—well, not since Terri had her tube litigated, I mean.
So what you’re suggesting, then, is that there are bigger, more dangerous forces out there than the ones I listed above?
Inconceivable.
Ok, that was fun! I think Celebrities in Fugly Suits should be added, though. They are a clear danger to the Union.
Which button do I push to vote for the Olsen twins? There seem to be several different options that might apply. And can I vote more than once? If I do vote more than once do they have to be for the same item?
Oxygen / Lifetime is the real threat. Watching that junk will destroy the brain so much you wont notice either the jihad’s maniacs, or the relatives come to pull the tubes.
Looks like I picked the winning horse AGAIN!!
Kiss because they were bad the first time, and the Dead because…..hey has anyone noticed…wow, look at that….
spamword “light,” as in, “Are you gonna light that thing, or just stand there with that really cool Aurora Borealis thingy coming out of your head?”
Al-Qaeda/Hizbollah/Hamas would be my actual #1 choice followed closely by INS apathy/TSA inadequacy/Hanity bravado
Single Arab Muslim males from the ages of 18 to 40.
Where’s the option for
Joooooooooooooooooooooooooooos!
I think that I’m going to have to go with Al-Qaeda/Hizbollah/Hamas, too. Nobody else on your list gets above the level of ‘mere dumbshits’.
Myopist:
You must not have a daughter going to SF State. Holy Cats man, you should see the filk© she’s dealing with… although, I’m with you if we’re going international…
I didn’t see a choice for Michael Moore, who is himself a group.
I think al-Qaida are a bunch of useless wankers post-Afghanistan, and I think the Palestinian hate groups are like the equally-useless KKK in the 1970s.
Hezbollah, though, scare the shit out of me.
(Turing: “costs”, as in “ignoring a nuke-armed Tehran’s highly-trained terrorist wing will cost the US a city or two, and I pray it’s not mine”)
Hmmm.
My vote is for “Obese people in tight lime-green polyester pantsuits”. Having once lived in Florida I can assure one and all that this vision isn’t as rare as it damn well should be.
Have I mentioned that I like cheese?
Ooh, wait, how did I miss this?
“There are only two things in this world that scare me, and nuclear weapons are one of them.”
While all of the groups mentioned on the ballot (and in some of the comments here) demonstrate significant threats, if big-time Hollywood blockbuster movies tell us anything, we should be worried about shadowy Euro-types with difficult-to-nail-down political agendas. I mean, did Die Hard, Die Hard With a Vengance, and The Sum of All Fears teach us nothing?
I’m sorry…did someone say something about “Islamic extremists”?
Sean M. I agree, one of the greatest threats to our civilization is THE SEQUEL.
Closely followed by THE SPINOFF
I have to go with Nannystatists, followed by that big thing in the east… oh, what’s it called… with the dang commies… you know… shoot.. that’s it – China. Freakin’ commies.
My third choice would be Karl Rove/Markos Zuniga. I’m pretty sure they’re the same guy.
“You must not have a daughter going to SF State.”
Although it would be possible for me to have a college-age daughter – and that’s Just Plain Scary, on a bunch of levels – no, I do not.
“Holy Cats man, you should see the filk© she’s dealing with… “
This may have been garbled in transmission: why is your daughter being menaced by science fiction/fantasy variations of popular songs? I grant that the puns can be hideously bad, but so what else is new?
“although, I’m with you if we’re going international…”
I guess Jeff was emphasizing domestic threats.
I voted for the MSM/political correctness group; but if I have to deal with one more “Dead Tribute”, I swear I’ll scream. And please don’t tell me any “Kiss” tribute bands actually exist, please. I’ll have to change my vote.
Fools! Velveeta is by far the most insidious threat to the republic, and its just sitting there right under your noses. Waiting for its chance.

Whoa. I have a daughter that will start attending SFSU this fall…we were just in Frisco Thurs-Saturday touring the campus, etc.
I’ve warned her on what to expect … sort of like some of her ‘america is the root of all evil’ high school teachers ratcheted up a few degrees, but she doesn’t seem worried.
Strong girl, full of Irish stubborness (or pigheadedness, time will tell).
We chuckled over the prevalence of Kedward bumperstickers still being sported on cars in the parking structure, plus the requisite “friends don’t let friends vote Republican” ones.
Darleen, how could you possibly be old enough to have a college age daughter?
Ah Gail…. keep on… I’m loving the flattery
BTW, daughter Siobhan is my youngest of 4 daughters (and I have survived! maybe not fully sane, but still alive)
And I have twin grandsons, Sean and Nikolas, aged 2 1/2.
It’s gonna be kind of nice when it’s just hubby and me
will be able to walk around nekkid, make noise, do other things on the dining table besides having dinner …
Yeehaw!
Spam word: Molybdenum
“Fools! Velveeta is by far the most insidious threat to the republic, and its just sitting there right under your noses. Waiting for its chance.”
Pursuit makes a strong argument. However, when all is said and done it is the delicious hazelnut spread “Nutella” that causes me to lose sleep each night.
It’s popular in Europe. It’s nutty. And it spreads so easily. Can’t you see what they’ve done? They’ve bottled Madonna!
But the triumph of Nutella is a reasonably pleasant fate, not horrifying like the spreading Velveeta menace.
Pleasant taste-wise, I’ll grant you that. But while you are enjoying it’s yummy, nutty, goodness, you are being lulled into a false sense of security. Nothing that tastes that good comes without wicked ramifications of some sort. Beware the “devil’s spread.”
I agree with Rightwingsparkle. There needs to be a choice that includes Reality shows/Snoop Dogg/any Board of Education.
– “Nutella Spread Queen” – Wendy “WOW”, or Madonna. You decide…
– I sense the possibilities of the incideous “sequel” to which Gail alluded… “The Velveeta Chronicles”… And just why does Martha continue to eschew its rich creaminess in her complex preperations… Does she have insider imformation…. Is that ankle bracelet airported directly to the Schwab commodities desk … We need answers … Jooooooooossss everywhere want to know…. Goldstein hop to it ….
– Hannity Hannity Hannity Hannity Hannity Hannity Hannity Hannity Hannity Gails Bloomers Hannity Hannity Hannity Hannity Hannity Hannity
wordsoup: way – As in “No”
Or..heaven forbid… The Velveeta Monologues!
No CAIR? I don’t care.
