Have you ever noticed this coincidence?
Ever since the chimpenfuhrer took power, the New York Yankees have not one one world series. Not one.

They won in 1996, 1998, 1999, 2000 during the Clinton administration.

When the BFEE came in, NADA. What a coincidence.

That's probably the best thing one can say about the present mal-administration.

3. Kind of Ironic, since the Yankees and BushCo stand for big money
and pissing all over those who aren't rich

The Clintons accept cash, credit card, political office, and Bill's been known to accept... um... oh nevermind.

10. How do you "one" a world series?
Sometimes we really give the freepers a run for their (notice, not "there" or "they're") money when it comes to spelling and grammar :(

12. It's part of a curse on the Yankees
As long as Steinbrenner owns the team, the Yankees won't win the Series when a pug in in office (something tied to watergate). They lost in '76 while Ford was still President, won in '77 & '78 with Carter in office, and never made it to the Series in the '80s.
