I saw this on DailyKos last night and couldn't stop laughing. Maybe its my sick humor that finds a cross between a phone sex call and asking Al Gore to run for President, but I have a feeling there are a lot of other sick people out there. I would love to post this in its entirety, but I'll just provide a few choice excerpts.
From Zackpunk at DailyKos:
Gore: You've reached 1-900-RUN-GORE, where all your political fantasies come true.
Me: Hi. I... I've never really called one of these things before.
Gore: But you've wanted to for a long time, right?
Me: Yeah. I've been thinking about you. A lot. Is this really Al Gore?
Gore: (Pause.) Yes. Yes, it is.
(snip)
Gore: What kind of party affiliation are you wearing?
Me: Progressive moderate.
Gore: I want you to take off your moderation. I want you to remove it completely.
Me: You want me to be totally progressive?
Gore: Yes, I want you to be stark liberal.
(snip)
Me: I am. I'm going to be soooo progressive. But... I want to be progressive for you. I want you to run for president. Will you run for president for me?Gore: I don't know if I should...
Me: Oh please, do it for me.
Gore: Okay. I'm going to do it.
Me: Yes! I knew you would!
Gore: I'm running for president. I'm doing it right now.
It might not be the way Gore should officially announce....but it's pretty damn funny.
