Haaa, that's funny.

That was really fascinating. Thanks for posting it!

That was a cool read.

Hey, I've got several flag-themed shirts. This guy's ok.

This was good. I like a sheriff with an easy, self-deprecating wit, especially one who can appreciate the absurdity of an e-mail like this:

Sheriff, you recently appeared on TV wearing a shirt made with the U.S. flag print. The aesthetic hideousness of a denim shirt interwoven with the Stars and Stripes notwithstanding, the wearing of the flag as clothing is a violation of the U.S. flag code. I will encourage any federal investigators working with you on the balloon boy case to charge you with crimes against the flag if that shirt is worn again. I suggest you donate it to the poor. The poor may also be in violation when wearing it, but at least they'll be clothed this winter and probably not shown on world-wide video representing American law officials.

Heh, he's a funny guy.

I particularly liked the caller who had proof that Hillary Clinton was a space alien. At least that caller had some credibility.

HA HA HA! Tell us what you REALLY think! This guy is a riot. Great find arse-hat.

I watched the press conference Sunday night and found him pretty charming. Up til the end when he mentioned that the only media person he would go out of his way to talk to was Bill O'Reilly. Then I see on his blog that he was the keynote speaker at his local Tea Party (from his "Revolution- Back to the Future" blog entry dated 07/08/2009):
