I'm declaring

[Dittohead not!]

I hereby declare my candidacy for the Republican nomination for the Presidency of the United States.

If Gingrich can do it on Twitter, then I can do it here, can't I?

My platform is as follows:

I will not solicit nor accept any donations. That way, I won't have to make any pay backs after I'm elected.

I'm running as a solid RINO, not caring a fig about the party line, party talking points, or ideology. If it isn't practical and workable, I'm against it. If the Democrats to something right, kudos to them. If the Republicans are right, then I'm with them too. Parties are a bane.

The Congress had better come up with a balanced budget, or I'm vetoing it.

If anyone doesn't like the executive decisions I make while in office, tough. If they don't like it, they can pick on someone else.

I'm not giving out my real name or any other personal data, so there can't be any nonsense about my religion, citizenship, or whether I'm a "real American."

There you have it. Now there are three candidates: Gingrich, Paul, and me.

not here... we have open primaries, so you gotta add Obama.

but you are more likely to get my vote than either Gingrich or Paul.

I will gladly accept a small fee fee for my vote but look out Blackdog also already has an offer on the table of homecooked collard greens.

I can't match that without taking donations, and thus violating my platform. I don't think they even sell collard greens in California anyway.

There are a lot of those, of various kinds.

What's your stance on inhaling?

You must also exhale.

what? you crazy?

L.A. was the destination of choice for hoards of southerners (mostly african americans) fleeing the depression after WWII (which lasted rather longer down in Ok and LA than elsewhere).

you can get collards at damn near any supermarket, dozens of restaurants (not only soulfood) and find recipes in the Times, including this one from one of the Hottest Celebrity Chefs in town. you can find other greens too, including dandelion, though why anyone would buy what grows all over creation, i dunno. keep in mind, too, that we have our own little Ethiopia here, down Fairfax way, to wit:

i used to live right behind the strip and go to Messob where Collards were almost unavoidable. most BBQ joints will offer collards, and those that don't probably aren't worth the cost of parking.

No kidding? I've never seen them in the supermarkets around here. I'm not even sure just what they look like. We're more into Mexican food for some reason or another.
