Old Senator Makes Fun Of Old Ex-Senator

101807arlenstandup.jpg

Ha ha, have you seen the Arlen Specter stand-up routine video on the Inquirer's website? In it, Specter makes a lot of jokes regarding Bob Dole's age. And then he makes some Viagara jokes! Ho ho! He also made a joke about Dan Quayle thinking the word "harass" was two words.

Specter made a few good jokes, especially this one about the death of JFK. (What, too soon?) Specter said JFK was killed by only one bullet, which was fired from the Texas School Book Depository. Specter said the bullet traversed 15 layers of clothing, 7 layers of skin and 15 inches of tissue! It went through the back of JFK's next, exiting at the front of his throat, hit Texas Gov. John Connally's back, slid along his fifth rib and exited his chest below the right nipple. It then struck his right wrist, exited at his palm and struck his left thigh, hitting the femur. Somehow, later, it exited Gov. Connally and rested on his stretcher. Now that's a funny joke.
