Bev Perdue really does look like the Joker (Obama, dictator, elections) - Politics and Other Controversies -Democrats, Republicans, Libertarians, Conservatives, Liberals, Third Parties, Left-Wing, Right-Wing, Congress, President - City-Data Forum

I couldn't help it. When Bev Perdue's staff said she was joking it was like a ripe apple waiting to be plucked. This was the first vision I had.

BlueNC can't stop spinning on the "joking" part. Her voice was even and consistent and she spoke with authority, even seeking agreement at the end of her diatribe. Perdue is a disgrace to our great state. I'd almost rather have a bible thumper than a fake southern accented dictator wannabe.

No problem. Here is BlueNC insisting that she was "joking"

Are N&O reporters just pretending to be clueless? | BlueNC

Throwing thinkprogress under the bus also.

Of course she was joking. The fact is, it doesn't matter if she was joking or not. The GOP is going to spin this so that North Carolinians will vote for the GOP candidate.

Her voice was even and she spoke with authority. No sale.

Also at 0:45 she was seeking confirmation that her "joke" was a good idea.

If you listen carefully there was kind of a chuckle at the end. Of course she was joking.

Like I said, at 0:45 she even asked for confirmation on whether or not her idea was a good one. No one who jokes actually asks for affirmation of their idea.

We'll just have to agree to disagree.
