All the News That Mark Twain Says He Would Report If He Was Alive Today

It has come to my attention that there is a movement afoot to elect Lady Gaga to replace President Obama. Don't get me wrong, I think that Lady Gaga would be a fine president- she's smarter than any fifty republicans and she stands up for the underdog. But she already has a job, and besides, why elect someone who stands up for the underdog, when you could cut to the chase as it were, and simply elect a dog? I bring this up because the other day my dog Jojo told me that he really, really wants to be president of America. And because Jojo is also smarter than any fifty republicans and he's been such a good dog lately, I just think he should be given the chance to be our first canine president, although if he hadn't voiced such a preference for being president I would really have wanted him on the Supreme Court. He could replace Clarence Thomas, so instead of having a Justice who "reads" Penthouse magazine while the court is in session and wants to turn America into roadkill, we would have a Justice who freely admits that he can't read and who rolls in roadkill, and who growls when republicans come into the room- (he says they smell bad). Jojo has a drivers license and social security card, and when we lived in Chicago he voted in several elections and even served a few terms as an assemblyman. There shouldn't be any problem interpretting his executive orders- I think that Thom Hartmann, Noam Chomsky, and Bernie Sanders can do it easily.
In closing, I want to reassure Wall Street and the other corporate types that Jojo is fair. In spite of the fact that he has always been a progressive, Jojo will tap republicans for at least seven cabinet positions. On Mondays, Governor Christie will pick up Jojo's poop; on Tuesdays it will be Rick Perry- and every time he executes someone he won't get to use the pooper scooper for a month; Wednesdays are reserved for Bill O'Reilly; thursday is Scott Walker's day, and on Fridays Ann Coulter will chase down Jojo's poop while wearing 15" high heels and a 4-inch mini skirt, with her adam's apple bobbing in the wind. We are holding back on assigning the higher-status weekend poop duty until we see which republicans show the most patriotism where it really counts, in terms of getting flag tatoos on their foreheads, and only using hookers and recreational drugs that are made in America.
I want to add another candidate , Screaming Lord Such , even though he died in 1999 . That shouldn't be a deterrent when compared to the Republican candidates already in the race.
Screaming Lord Such was the leader of the Monster Raving Loony Party ( in Britain ). One of his promises if elected was to tow Britain to the Mediterranean Sea to take advantage of the weather , a promise that many Brits ( I know a lot ) had embraced . I'm sure you can google a picture of him with Tony Blair and the other candidates in one of the general election campaign photos in the 1990's .
"Thom Hartmann seeks out interesting subjects from such disparate outposts of curiosity that you have to wonder whether or not he uncovered them or they selected him."
—Leonardo DiCaprio, actor, producer, and environmental activist
From Screwed:
"I think many of us recognize that for all but the wealthiest, life in America is getting increasingly hard. Screwed explores why, showing how this is no accidental process, but rather the product of conscious political choices, choices we can change with enough courage and commitment. Like all of Thom’s great work, it helps show us the way forward."
—Paul Loeb, author of Soul of a Citizen and The Impossible Will Take a Little While
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Never one to shy away from the truth, Thom Hartmann’s collected works are inspiring, wise, and compelling. His work lights the way to a better America."
—Van Jones, cofounder of RebuildTheDream.com and author of The Green Collar Economy
Hopefully Scoobie Doo isn't like every other libertarian that likes to smoke up...
If Scooby Doo wins, his running mate should be Peppy LaPew, creating the "Doo-LaPew" ticket, or, even better "LaPew-Doo".
