I had the opportunity, during lunch, to add a handful of oyster crackers and a few dashes of Tabasco sauce to my New England clam chowder. Whether or not I did I’m not going to say—because the point is, had I wanted to, I certainly had that option.
And there’s not a goddamned thing Harry Reid could’ve done about it, either.

Oh Yeah?!?!?!?
If the chowder included pork, you might have found that Harry had a hand in it.
Personally, I hope you did.
Oyster crackers are, like, one of natures greatest mysteries, except they aren’t made by nature which really pisses PETA off.
BECAUSE OF THE PLIGHT OF THE DEFENSELESS OYSTER CRACKER!!!!!!!
Hmmmm.
Another example of the unrestrained sexual offender patriarchy in action.
Where’s Wendy Murphy when an innocent New England clam chowder victim needs to file fraudulent sexual assault charges against a perp so deviant as to employ the dreaded racist Tabasco weapon!?
And don’t even get me started on the oyster crackers there bub.
I was going to have some Wendy’s chili instead, but…
WHAT did you call me?
Cincinnati appetizer: take an oyster cracker, preferably one that has a small hole in the top. Pour Tabasco sauce into hole. Eat. Repeat until chili arrives.
Oh yeah? You just wait until the Massachusetts Senate delegation finds out what you’ve been plotting for our soup.
REGIONIST!
Close but not quite hot enough. Use 1 saltine cracker, 1 raw oyster and Southern hot sauce consisting of 1 cup Havenarvo Peppers and 1/2 cup vinegar puree’d and aged 2 years. Apply one drop only sauce to oyster and cracker suck it down. Chug bottle of beer immediately or be prepared to lose the Epithelial tissue in your mouth, lips, and fingers (if you touched the sauce) Repeat until beer or oysters runs out or you cannot stand upright.
Wow….that was so like speaking truth to chowder.
Amen brother, Amen
Look, I’m not eating anything that Harry had his hand in.
Oh. Sure Jeff. But can get a really killer deal on some Las Vegas real estate.
I just want to be asked is all.
What’s this thing you got about Harry Reid lately, Goldstein?
MORMON HATER!
On a semi-unrelated note, I wonder if you’re required to pay tithing on money earned in shady land deals.
Definitely got to ask my bishop about that one…
Are there then trans fats in Oyster crackers?? Sauce?
Perhaps a bit too much sodium??
Either way, we’ll get those away from your chowder in NYC, by gum…

Not this time, maybe.
The next time—it could be a bisque, a BLT, or even a nice plate of olives—Harry Reid will be there.
First they came for people who eat clam chowder with oyster crackers, but because I eat chili with other people’s fingers, I …
What are you people looking at me like that for?
Under McCain-Feingold, it is, Pablo. It is considered free political advertising, aka an “in-kind contritbution.
Well, that was weird.
I was on the previous thread and attempted (twice) to post that comment and got a “404” error both times and, lo and behold, it shows up here.
I get errors no matter what browser I use.

Wait. If he gets the right case in front of the 9th circut court he might be able to do something about it …

You’re not supposed to eat oyster crackers on days that end in ‘y’…
We have a bird in Norfolk called an Oyster Catcher. Not the most challenging of tasks,you might feel, the oyster being one of the more static features along the coastline. Do you have Oyster Catchers over there?
So you’re not saying if you did so, or not? There are ways, my friend, oh yes there are ways, of finding out. Cardinal Busty, bring in the fluffy Pelosi!
