Tea Party: Obama declares war on tea.
Michele Bachmann: Finally we have the answer why cola is black and manufactured in Kenya.
Donald Trump: Swallowing the false birth certificate won't help, the truth will always come out.
Sarah Palin: I will stand in front of Obama's 'death cola' so his bureaucrats can decide whether I am worthy of Coke.

DA, I'm not getting what's funny about all of those chopped up pictures. They're becoming tiresome, is this some overdone advertising gimmick?

Nooo Evo, I am not getting paid by the Swiss newspaper SonntagsZeitung (of course :smile:), but I do think it's one of the most intelligent and funny political satire I've seen in a while, and there seems to be others who agree, but of course, taste is different.

But don't worry Evo, there are no more available (for now)... :wink:

I like some of them, some I don't get.

I guess it would be more appropriate to say I don't get what the appeal is, I mean a couple were funny, but then it gets old, at least to me. It's not a big deal, just wondering if this was something that was wildly popular there.

Let's say I find them reasonably good. Definitely some of them are better when you recognize all the people used and put them in the context, but the one with lemon and reamers is pretty universal - I would even say it is more American than European (taking into account health care prices on both sides of the pond).

I didn't get the lemon one at all.

Evo, you're a smart girl (and I'm a silly boy;) ...

What do you do with the lemon and the lemon squeezer to get the juicy stuff out, and maybe most crucial, what do you do with the remains?

:biggrin:


P.S: Borek is right, this has nothing to do with American healthcare, that was my silly comment, sorry. :blushing:

You press down and turn it. If you're "health conscious" and have one of those overpriced VitaMix blenders, you throw the remains in with kale and strawberries and make a disgusting "smoothie".
