Taco Bell is anti-Democrat....

5. OhMyGod...
Please don't tell me that Taco Bell is connected to Repuke politics. I'm serious. I couldn't live without it, but I would have a hard time supporting the GOP circuitously.

Explain in greater detail. I don't know what you're talking about with regard to Florida.

9. ChoicePoint was the software company
who made Cruella Harris' "ethnic-cleansing" voter database, which removed 50,000 or so "criminals" (most of whom were "guilty" of being black and nothing else) from the Florida voter rolls. They conveniently were not restored in time to vote Jeb out of office in 2002 either.

3. Davis is the "soft chicken" item.
Let TacoBell know how you feel.

12. Not a problem....
On the rare occasions I eat at Taco Hell, I normally order the chicken items anyway, because the "beef" isn't from any cow in this universe.

13. The implicit idea is that
while Arnold has the beef, Davis is soft, and a chicken.

4. I just rated that story a "one".
Things like that really don't deserve anyone's attention.

7. Oh come on!
Lighten up! It is amusing yet absurd at the same time. Thought it deserved some attention considering how ridiculous the recall vote is anyway and yet people still talk about that!

10. Hey, I'd vote for the Chihuahua.
What has Arnold promised them? Maybe a contract in all California schools to feed their plastic tacos to the children?
