If George Costanza had been a war mongering Republican

From the St. Paul Pioneer Press. I’m not sure if you need a subscription to see that link so I’ll summarize.

Meet Gabe Schwartz, Republican delegate from Colorado, idiot extrodanaire.

When asked by the media what he hopes McCain will bring to America he says…

After Palin’s speech he meets a lovely lady who he invites up to his hotel room. She tells him to get undressed. Gabe has apparently never seen Seinfeld, so he complies. She slips him a mickey, plants her flag and takes his money. He awakens missing $120,000 worth of jewelry, cash and other stuff. Who the hell (besides Cindy McCain) travels with that kind of swag?

I don’t approve of this kind of crime, but still, it’s pretty funny. Way to go Gabe!!!

I don’t know who is going to object to your description more: Seinfeld fans or Republicans. But I have to admit it’s on target and the story is pretty hilarious.

I’m surprised nobody has used “Less taxes and more war!” as a campaign slogan.

<Snerk!>

Further evidence that God is an iron.

Did anyone click on the interviewof him at the convention? It’s hysterical!

If there weren’t references to his activities in the state Republican party, I’d have said he was a plant.

A self-styled Adonis. Boo-hoo you lost your stupid bling.

He did give some straight answers to those questions, though. Wouldn’t it be nice if every politician gave answers as straightforward as that. At least we would know who we were voting for.

I liked his reply to the question about being in Iraq for the next 100 years-“We’re still in Japan, we’re still in Germany.”

Yep, we’re still over there, shootin’ down Nazis! That’s us!

Heh.

A $1500 cell phone? Was it covered in gold and diamonds? I am having a hard time imagining why anyone on earth would want to spend that much money on a cell phone.

I was amused by his complaint that the media exaggerated the value of his stuff at $120,000, but according to him, it was worth “only” $50,000. Who carries stuff worth that much around?

I have to assume that the person who pulled off this crime is a pro who came to the Twin Cities solely to prey on conventioneers. I can’t believe that Gabe was the only mark who got stung in this. Men who have wives and kids might be disinclined to report the theft to the cops. The parade of ridicule Gabe is experiencing now probably won’t encourage others to come forward either.

Is the parade of ridicule due to the crime, the size of the loss, or the outrageous comments he made in the interview?

It is the perfect storm isn’t it?

The perfect storm would be if it turns out the pretty young woman was actually a young man, and that they were doing crack before Gabe was slipped a mickey. But this is more than good enough.

Upon regaining conciousness and recognizing true love for what it is, they become engaged. Gabe dies from bad glue on the wedding invitation envelopes.
