  • Ideal US Government Picks

    (from the perspective of someone who just wishes they'd leave us all alone)

    President: Manning
    Vice-President: Snowden
    Chief of Supreme Court: Glenn Greenwald

    Reasons: Best understanding of the the US Constitution seen so far.

    Defense Appropriations Committee: CODE Pink, all of them. Reason: Most likely to rein in reckless war spending.

    Federal Reserve Chairman: Paul Reason: Most likely to reduce reckless currency issuance.

    National Security Director: Assange Reason: Best understanding of the proper position of national security vs the rights of private citizens.

    White House Press Secretary: Bill Maher Reason: Best at helping America understand itself (in lieu of Carlin)

    Secretary of State: Nader Reason: Most likely to give environmental issues their proper prominence and to recast the 'special relationships' between the US and foreign governments in terms of a return to Westphalian national sovereignty.

    (I consider JPM and GS effectively part of the US government under the current system)
    JPM CEO: William Banzai
    GS CEO: Tyler Durden

    Reasons: Most likely to operate these organizations in the interests of the American people.

    If nothing else, they'd make for interesting TV...

    My slate faces a few MINOR difficulties, but overall....
    "Wait a minute..this isn''t FAUX dive, it's just a DIVE!"
    "...Mangy dog staggering about, looking vainly for a place to die."
    "sauna stories? There are no 'sauna stories'.. I mean.. sauna is sauna. You do by the laws of sauna." -P.

        I don't know, but two invader zim avatars is too much. I don't want to have to read to differentiate between people.

            Fine, let me dig up my Cowboy Bebop avatar.

              Holy crap, I've never realized what his avatar was before.
