Try Paraguay.  Lovely place. Nazis still about.  Chile is a good place 
for creeps too.  In ElSalvador you could get a chance to join a right

Ahhh.  there are so many possibilities for lil right winged types.

Summary: Rerun quayle flails
Keywords: rerun quayle

This is my first time posting to the net, so here goes...

I got Michael Goldsman's first list of quayle flails from a friend a couple
months or so ago.  I found this list so enjoyable that I converted it to
a database and wrote a C program to randomly pick out one flail and diplay
it on standard output.  Now I and several other students at Marquette put
this program into our startup sequences so that every time we log in we
get another interesting quote from the V.P.  (The quayle flail program is
very similar to the UNIX fortune program in how it is used.)

I was looking to update the database with some new flails and noticed by
the replies that Michael had indeed created a sequal to his first list.
Unfortuantely, that first list seems to have dropped off the spooler and
into the bit bucket.  If Michael of anyone could repost the list or if
anyone knows where it is stored on anonymous FTP, that would be appreciated.

Also, if there is any interest in the quayle flail program, I'd be willing
to put the C source files and the database on an FTP site somewhere.

Thanks in advance.

Not that this has much to do with a.f.d-q, but it does merit a response.  As a
Congresscritter, Boxer was pretty much just an incumbent dirtbag.  Voting for
her could be viewed not so much as support of the 'Year of the Woman' as an
endorsement of a check-bouncer.

Actually, pols like Boxer do have potential for humor, since she's as good an
example of the Peter Principle as Our Boy.

I thought the best BushLie of the campaign was the commercial played on Black
radio stations saying that Arkansas had no Martin L King holiday, when in
fact it has since 1985, and Clinton himself was involved in making it so.
It's just a flat-out lie... the Republicans *deserved* to lose the election
because of things like this.

If I'm not mistaken, Bill Clinton *did* win the New Hampshire primary-
the Democratic Party's primary, of course, just as George Bush won the

Okay, even given that, the electoral vote doesn't change that much. Exit
polls also showed that if Perot had not run, his 19 million votes would
have split about 8 million for Clinton, 4 million for Bush, with the
rest staying home. That would have given Clinton 53% of the vote, and
almost doubled his margin over Bush in the popular vote.

No, please, Elizabeth, we're not all like that.  Of course, at Utah State....

Which reminds me, I went to the Capitol Steps last Friday (Really funny - 
the song (sung by a Marilyn Quayle look-alike) of "I Want A Slow Dan" is
great, no matter how many time I hear it) and, for Utah, they stuck this
line into one of their routines:
	
	"Don't make an Orrin Hatch of yourself!"

It got a big laugh.

	Actually, people like Pete Wilson, Kemp and others will be great for 
the Republican Party, and American Politics.  Who the hell let Pat Robertson
and Pat Buchannan invade the Republican Party?  As a former Republican,
I sympathize with the members of the party who have been pushed out by Quayle
and the above idiots.  Social liberalism and fiscal conservatism (***NOT***
Supply side economics, though) will bring out the best in this country.  Look
for a hellish year inside the Republican Party, as the "moderates/progressives"
wrest control fr7m the fascists who gained control under Bush.

I do wish all the people who fling around words like "Communist",
"Socialist", Pink and Red, would get a grip.  Bill Clinton is far removed
from any of these (so is Ted Kennedy, for that matter).  He wouldn't stick
out in many European conservative parties, or in many Social Democrat
parties, come to that.  In fact, he reminds me of some members of Ted
Heath's Tory cabinet, in the late 70's.

Try actually living under a Socialist government for a while, and then
report back.
