- And boy, do we a.f.d-q'ers know that the True Dan Fans are humor-impaired.
-
- Over on a.f.dave-barry, Mr. Switzer posits that amazing hypothesis that
- the Davester voted for Bush. He used the quote above as his proof. I
- should remind Mr. Switzer what Dave Barry had to say about Our Man Dan.
- I don't have the exact quote, but it was long the lines of:
-
- Republicans are complaining about the media smear campaign that is
- directed against them, in particular towards Vice-President Dan Quayle.
- These dirty tricks consist of reporting what Dan Quayle actually said.
-
- Alright! Dave Barry is a true a.f.d-q'er!
-
- And anyone who is so humor-impared (like all of Dan's Fans) to think
- that when a humorist makes a joke it necessarily reflects her/his
- political beliefs does not deserve to be mentioned in the same paragraph
- as Dave Barry.
