316,000 Holiday Bongs Seized at Port
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/34048261
Custom officials unwrapped a surprise Tuesday at the Port of LA/Long Beach -- 316,000 glass bongs disguised as Christmas ornaments.

The shipment's value was estimated at more than $2.6 million. The fake ornaments were hidden inside 860 boxes that arrived from China in a shipping container.

Agents said the items were decorated like Christmas ornaments. Before you get any ideas, consider these holiday gift options.

Not much of a conflagration, but a little humor anyway.

See - this is why they fail.

Can't even make their own bongs anymore.

Poor DUmmies.  They'll have to resort to actually rolling joints or smoking their dope out of a pop can.  But that takes a little work...they might not survive. :tongue:

I would think that the patriotic DUchebags would only buy American Union made bongs.

And now, A tribute... In Song   :-)




So This Is Christmas

So this is Christmas
So lets smoke a bong
Got mine imported
Straight from Hong Kong.

And so this is Christmas
I hope you get stoned
Visions of Cheetos
From this herb Ive grown.

A very merry Christmas
Bush has been gone for a year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without Cheney near.

And so this is Christmas
Don't bogart that bone,
The Maui Wowee's run out
Got no mo' money at home.

And so happy Christmas
Obama's half white
We can pin the blame on that part,
When we get busted tonight.

A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's break out the Zima
It's so much better than beer.

And so this is Christmas
Lets post at The DUmp
About how we hate Christians
And JOOOS did nine-one-one

And so this is Christmas
I hope to get some
Or at least look at web porn
Of old and of young

A very merry Christmas
And a happy Eid too
Don't forget Winter Solstice.
And F*ck all Da Jooos

War is inside
Af-ghan-is-tan
Where's O-Ba-Ma
Now ?

Kudos. That is a most excellent DUmmy tune. :bow:

There is no virtue in compulsory government charity, and there is no virtue in advocating it. A politician who portrays himself as caring and sensitive because he wants to expand the government's charitable programs is merely saying that he is willing to do good with other people's money. Well, who isn't? And a voter who takes pride in supporting such programs is telling us that he will do good with his own money— if a gun is held to his head.

I ran across that one when looking for an image of the late Bella Abzug.

The problem was, only flattering images of the late Bella Abzug were in all "searches."

So I had to settle for this one.

Well, I was really bothered that when "image-searching" google, all they had were flattering photographs of Bella Abzug.

They didn't have any of those photographs that I recall from old news-magazines of the 1970s, which featured Bella Abzug in big floppy hats and a big floppy nose.

Those photographs used to be ubiquitous, found all over the place in the print media.

I'm starting to wonder if perhaps google has a bias, and keeps unflattering images of Bella Abzug off their site.

So I had to settle for what I could find, whatever it is I found.

Thanks, yeah one of the things Ive done on a semi-professional basis is songwriting - this is (Obviously) just a piss-take of the John Lennon song of the same name - took about 10 minutes to reconstruct the lyrics to my liking.  :-)

I can also crank out poetry the same way. Once I have a topic and a direction it can be done pretty much on command.

How could such things exist? It sounds like "a sexy photograph of Helen Thomas", or "an intelligent opinion from Doug's stupid ex-wife".
