Phrase 2008: No woman is illegal! UPDATED

I liked “Don’t Taze Me Bro,” for 2007.

But 2008 is the year that “No Woman Is Illegal!”

I hope we see tee-shirts. That should become the punchline to almost every joke in the world:

A pirate walks into a bar with a steering wheel coming out of his fly.
The bartender says to him, “hey, you’ve got a steering wheel coming out of your fly!”
The pirate says, “Arrrggh, aye, and it’s drivin’ me nuts! And NO WOMAN IS ILLEGAL!”

Knock, knock!
Sho’s there?
Banana!
Banana who?
NO WOMAN IS ILLEGAL!

“No woman is illegal” is the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard a pandering politician say. It makes as much sense as those jokes.

Hillary declares “no woman” is illegal! Hey, they can all have driver’s licenses, then, yaaaaay!

Strident ’70’s nonsense comes to the fore. “Men,” I suppose, may be illegal. Here is Victor Davis Hansen making real sense on illegal immigration.

He does not claim that women are different from men. This must be Hillary’s special wisdom.

And this line:

Stroking the 4-year-old girl’s head, Clinton said, “I feel so strongly that if we don’t take care of our children, we don’t take care of our future.”

Wow. Children are our future! Profound. She’s not going to go gooey and sappy now, because a few tears worked, is she? I don’t believe I’ll be able to stand it. Kathleen Parker says she is tear-jerking America’s chain.

‘Ya think?

Jules Crittenden has more:

Her wretchedly ill-prepared advance staff, the unbelieveable notion of illegal aliens acting as real estate brokers, or her own gender-distorted misunderstanding of basic immigration law?

Clinton said unscrupulous lending leads to bad mortgages, which lead to foreclosures, which lead to people with nowhere to go and vacant neighborhoods that can go rapidly downhill.

“We treat these problems as if one is guacamole and one is chips, when … they both go together,” she said.

OK, none of the above. But what an adorably multicultural, if condescendingly racist analogy!

The article devolves into lay-of-the-land election coverage, with this remark from Hill:

“I’m not asking people to take me on a leap of faith,” she said. “I’m asking them to look at what I bring to this race, and what I will do as president.”

Uh … legalize women?

Reader Vickie writes: the response should be: Don’t matronize me, Sis!

UPDATED: If you don’t like “No Woman is Illegal” for your ’08 punchline, you might try on this one:

From an unnamed Clinton advisor:

“If you want Obama to be your imaginary hip black friend and you’re young and you have no social needs, then he’s cool.”

That from the people who encouraged the idea of Bill Clinton being the nation’s truly imaginary hip black friend!

Knock, knock!
Who’s there!
Orange!
Orange who?
Orange you glad you don’t need an imaginary hip black friend, because you already had one, and he was president!
NO WOMAN IS ILLEGAL!

The Clintons and their operatives are getting sloppy. They cannot afford to.

But they still have help – I mean, three racially insensitive remarks inside of 48 hours, and the press is pretty quiet about it. Imagine such a reaction to a GOP campaign screwing up like that.

WELCOME: Michelle Malkin readers. Thanks for the link! While you’re here please look around. Today we’re also talking about the need for American Glasnost and wondering who will be our Gorbachev. We’re also taking a fast politics test, finally voting on those PMJ straw poll thingies, pondering the origin of anti-matter, and dancing or watching the Nicholas Brothers in awe.
