    Mr. Praline: Never mind that, my lad. I wish to complain about this parrot what I purchased not half an hour ago from this very boutique.

    Owner: Oh yes, the, uh, the Norwegian Blue...What's,uh...What's wrong with it?

    Mr. Praline: I'll tell you what's wrong with it, my lad. 'E's dead, that's what's wrong with it!

    Owner: No, no, 'e's uh,...he's resting.

    Mr. Praline: Look, matey, I know a dead parrot when I see one, and I'm looking at one right now.

    Owner: No no he's not dead, he's, he's restin'! Remarkable bird, the Norwegian Blue, idn'it, ay? Beautiful plumage!

    Mr. Praline: The plumage don't enter into it. It's stone dead.

    Not sure why I thought Cleese was a conservative.

    But I guess this doesn't disprove it.

    Even British Conservatives think American Conservatives are redneck morons.

    Guess he's not conservative:

    Cleese has expressed support for U.S. Senator Barack Obama's presidential candidacy, donating US$2,300 to his campaign and offering his services as a speech writer.[10]

    Oh damn! Someone beat me to the Dead Parrot sketch.
    I didn't expect that.
    I also didn't expect the Spanish Inquisition, because Nobody Expects the Spanish Inquisition!

    I always thought that Sarah was Manuel to McCain's Basil.
  • BarrieT · 1 year ago
    How about Manuel to McCain's Major Gowen?

    that makes my day!
    definitely one of the funniest things I've seen during this whole ugly campaign. Parrot Palin. Try to unsee that image. Thanks, John!

    Watching MSNBC. Mrs. Greenspan is exceptionally bitchy and showing her true colors today. Andrea Mitchell just gave Secretary of Labor and Obama supporter, Robert Reich, a load of shit for his saying McCain is erratic! Andrea needs to keep up with McCain's pronouncements about erratic politicians. I guess its okay for Republicans to say it, but not Democrats? Then, get this! She tried to end the interview by digging at Reich by saying, "Rob Reich out there on the LEFT COAST..." Reich replied, "We aren't all that left, Andrea." She then lied and said, "I didn't mean it that way... didn't mean it politically..." and tried to act insulted. What a beyotch, and a TOTAL LIAR! She absolutely meant it that way, and should have known better than to try to get in that kind of dig!!! Its time for MSNBC to allow FOX NEWS to have her, and let her do interviews of Bu$h and Cheney for the next four years FOX is in media exile!

    I keep telling y'all that if Obama wins, his first order of business is to restore the Fairness Doctrine at the FCC.

    That means Fox Noise loses its license for failing to be a news organization and really being a propagandist media outlet. Andrea goes there, she's out of a job within a year, cause you can't work for an unlicensed media outlet.

    Hey, isn't that Vinvin from Bonjour America interviewing John Cleese?

    John Cleese is always good.

    BTW I prefer the cheese shop sketch but it's OK that's just me.

    Fawlty Towers was one of the funniest things that he - or anybody
    else - has ever put on television.

    "don't mention the war! I did, but I think I got away with it!!"

    classic.

    Sarah "The Parrot" Palin.

    All shagged out after a long squawk.
