Komedians for Kerry
With so many talented people in Hollywood desiring a change in the current adminstration, why not a benefit for the Democratic Cause?
Do you think it is possible?

1. Hey, Digit! Great idea! Can I give a contribution?
After the Great Trials of 2002, Smirk, Sneer and Rehnquist are going to the electric chair.

Rehnie the Pill Popper goes first. The warden asks, "Do you have any last words?"

The disgraced Chief Justice says, "Yes I do. I was only following orders and I am innocent of what these sociopaths did once in office."

The warden says, "OK" and pulls down the big switch.

Instead of 12,000 volts, nothing happens.

The warden says, "Wow! That's one in a million! You're free."

Eagle-Eye Bill gets up and Sneer sits down in the chair.

After the belts are tightened and the skull cap wires secured, the warden asks, "Got anything to say?"

Sneer says: "Yes, as a matter of fact I do. I was ony following orders and I am innocent of what the commander-in-chief did or didn't do, as they case may be."

The warden says, "Yeah" and pulls the switch, extra hard this time.

Again. Nothing happens.

The warden says, "Yow! That's once in a trillion! You're free!"

After the straps are off, Big Dick gets up and his boss comes in.

The warden says, "Do yo have any last words?"

Little George says, "Well, yeah! First thing is that chair's unplugged."

2. That didn't work well for Howard Dean.
One of Howard Dean's fundraiser's was comedians, but because comedians do racial humor and sex humor, it was more of an embarassment for him than anything else.

3. It would not have to be in poor taste
I have seen plenty of humor which was not racial nor too sexual, and yet was funny.
I was thinking of fund raising ideas and Hollywood seems to be behind us.
