I just met a presidential candidate!View MessagesViewing posts 1 to 21 of 21 messages posted.
“I just spent the morning with a candidate for the presidency. "Average" Joe Schriner. He showed up here at the School of Theology where I work in southern Indiana this morning and I didn't even know he was coming. Turns out a bunch of people in the school and my boss (Director of Communication) knew this guy was coming but failed to mention it. My boss in West Virginia for a conference so I was left in charge. When the media started calling this morning I had no idea what they were talking about. About ten minutes later a professor called from one of the classes and asked if I wanted to come up and meet Joe. How about a little heads up people!!!! I'm pissed” 1:15:17 PM 2/19/04 “Joe has a Web site at voteforjoe.com” 1:20:15 PM 2/19/04 Is this him? “ ”1:22:41 PM 2/19/04 “uuuuuuuuum, How about no, you crazy Dutch bastid!” 1:26:57 PM 2/19/04 “Oh, my mistake then. Carry on, or Kerry on if you like.” 1:30:01 PM 2/19/04 “Don't get me wrong. I'd be the first to call this guy a quack. But the lack of communication in my office really pissed me off.” 1:35:50 PM 2/19/04 “i can understand that. People can be real hard to work with and it seems the higher up the ladder ya climb the dumber they get.” 1:37:56 PM 2/19/04 “I though maybe you'd tripped over a drunk college kid from New Jersey passed out in the middle of the trail... HA! (I slay me)” 1:55:51 PM 2/19/04 “Does every state have their own nutcase nuisance candidate? Here in Alabama, we used to have a woman who registered and ran for the highest office on the ticket every statewide election. Since Alabama's gubernatorial elections are staggered two years from the presidential elections, that means every other year she was running for either President of the U.S. or Governor of Alabama.” 2:00:44 PM 2/19/04 “Yeah, this guy ran in 2000 too. He just scratched out the 0 and put in a 4 on the side of his 1974 campaign van. For petes sake, the guy asked us if there was any media in the area. Umm, can you say phone book? At least the guy has visited all 50 states. i'll give him that.” 2:08:21 PM 2/19/04 “Does every state have their own nutcase nuisance candidate? bitpusher 02:00:44 PM 02/19/04 I'll run for president, I think. I'm sure I can count on the TT vote. Don't you agree that I could do a better job than Kerry or Bush with you guys as cabinet members and advisors?” 2:34:45 PM 2/19/04 “Dibbs on Secretary of State. I need to get out more!” 2:36:54 PM 2/19/04 “Stickman, you'd probably do OK since most of the people who post political BS here are always right.” 2:37:06 PM 2/19/04 “Some lean to the left also, IJ! :)” 2:37:45 PM 2/19/04 “Secretary of the Exterior.” 2:38:50 PM 2/19/04 “Dibs on Secretary of the Treasury. New gear for all.” 2:39:43 PM 2/19/04 “I'll take foreign affairs. Been awhile since I had an affair and I've always had a thing for foreign girls.” 2:41:23 PM 2/19/04 “We're going to Florida, We're going to California, We're going to Hawaii, We're going to Colorado, and then we're going BACKPACKING, AAAAIIYYYEEEEEE!!!!!” 2:41:51 PM 2/19/04 “Cowabunga, Dude!” 2:43:20 PM 2/19/04 “That was my Dean impression.” 2:45:08 PM 2/19/04 All in unison, now... “Kerry, Kerry, he's the man, If he can't do it, no one can!!!” 2:46:14 PM 2/19/04
