Why we march and vote

On October 2, tens of thousands of people will stand together in Washington, D.C. demanding that Congress reject the Republican right-wing obstruction and put the creation of jobs and the plight of the jobless on the front burner.

PDB Watch is a little late to the party but it finally struck us this week exactly what the new look Democrat logo really needs. First, see the new look Democrat logo. Pretty (D)umb, right?

Let’s examine it. The dim D, apparently standing for dim Democrat, is surrounded by the much bolder O, apparently standing for bold Obama. This illustrates the subservient nature of the Democratic Party to the personality cult of Obama. That personality cult is very important to the brave new progressive future of the USA under Maximum Leader Obama. There are also three fonts in this logo, to demonstrate the incoherent policies and behavior of Democrats. And there is the same vacuous Change in the slogan, promising who knows what and delivering (D)isappointment and (D)espair to everyone. Good choices, Democrats. You have made a good start at describing Democrats’ (D)umb progressive party.

But that slogan isn’t quite there yet. Our crack staff thought that the circled D looked like a letter grade. Since the Democrats have manifestly failed in all they tried to do, it can’t be the right grade. But it needs to have a D to refer to Democrats, right? So let’s move that grade in the right direction and make the slogan match.

However, there is another possibility. D- might have been Obama’s letter grade from Harvard.

That answer makes sense all right. But why would the Democrats want to advertise Obama’s grades now, when they could have proved he actually passed Harvard without cheating by releasing these before the 2008 elections. Of course, Obama did give himself a grade of B-. Perhaps if the Democrats want to really become the Barack-ocrat Party they should just go all in now. Here is a logo that emphasizes the Barackyness of the Democratic Party and also reminds the voters of one of their proudest allies: The teachers’ unions that have made such a huge contribution to the nation’s failing schools and the Democrats’ election funds.

After Velma Hart made her famous comment about Hot Dogs and Beans, the staff thought perhaps that the new reality Democrats had brought to Americans should be part of their logo. So they simplified back down to the original logo and changed the slogan to recall one of the Democrats’ finest 16 years: The Great Depression that was sustained and intensified by FDR’s brain trust and its meddling in the economy.

But, you know the fact is that D just doesn’t cut it. D is too high a grade for progressive Democrats. Unlike in school, effort doesn’t count in real life. What counts is results. The real grade must be a low F. To really run on their undefeated record of failure after failure, going back 80 years to when Franklin Delano Roosevelt stretched out a one year recession into a 16 year Great Depression, every single economic and other decision made by the progressive FDR type of Democrats has proved that the road to hell is paved with good intentions and stupid Democrat policies.

We at PDBWatch believe this final logo for the Democrats, errrrm Failocrats, ably sums up the history of their party in the 20th and 21st century. It’s time to consign the progressive Democrats and all their logos to the ash-heap of history, to lay there beside the similarly totalitarian ideologies of Mr. Mao and Mr. Lenin and the rope they bought to hang us with.

This was King Dedede’s announcement that he was suspending his campaign for Congressman to the 23rd District of New York. (via memeorandum)

Dear Friends and Supporters:

Throughout the course of my campaign for Congress, I have made the people of the 23rd District and the issues that affect them the focal point of my campaign. As a life long resident of this District, I care deeply and passionately about its people and our way of life. Whether as a candidate for Congress, a State Assemblyman or the King of Dreamland, I have always sought to act with the best interest of our District and its residents in mind—and today I again seek to act for the good of our community and its delicious fruit.

The opportunity to run as the Republican and Royalist Party candidate to represent the 23rd District has been and remains one of the greatest honors of my life. As a member of the penguin minority of this district, I have always had my own challenges from anti-penguin bigots. Yet, during the past several months, as I’ve traveled the district, meeting and talking with voters about the issues that matter most to them, I’ve been overwhelmed by the amount of support I’ve received from open-minded constituents as I sought to serve as their voice in Washington. However, as Winston Churchill once said, Democracy can be a fickle employer, and the road to public office is not always a smooth one.

My road to Washington DC has been diverted by a pink puffball, Kirby, who was running as the Free Markets for Fruit Party candidate after failing to receive the Republican Party endorsement. Perhaps the most notorious of his actions followed after my ill-advised decision to hold a press conference in front of Kirby’s campaign headquarters, at which I was outshouted by the pink puffball’s mindless minions.

King Dedede’s press conference in front of the Kirby campaign headquarters

Shortly after the above photo was taken Kirby clobbered me with a giant hammer and knocked me out of the picture at a velocity of roughly 11,000 mph and a 35 degree angle from the horizontal. My allies, including the Great Newt and Frank Rich of the New Penguin Times, have been very kind, but I am afraid that I cannot defeat Kirby at this time as he has transformed into Metallic Kirby and is now invulnerable. I can clobber him all I want but it doesn’t do any good.

In recent days polls have indicated I don’t have a chance in Dreamland to prevail in this battle with Kirby. So with a heavy heart and a broken hammer I suspend my campaign and release my supporters to support whoever they want, whether it be the pink puffball whats-his-name or Meta-Knight, the Democrat and Real Evil Party candidate.

I, myself, will be voting for Meta-Knight. Just a FYI.

And that’s it for King Dedede’s announcement.

This was another rare X-post from PDB Watch.

What do you call a Satire that only uses found materials that the phenomenon you are satirizing takes seriously? I call it comic gold!

Much like the Emperors Caligula and Nero before him, and the Amon-Ra-begot Pharoahs before them, Emperor Obama has ascended to the rank of the deified Godkings.
