Ooooo, I googled. "KIDS say the darnedest things" is your allusion. And then the ADULTS comment.

Kobi, being passive aggressive is not too mature. Just sayin.

I loved the Linkletter, but he was old fashioned, grew up watching it.
Dance all you want Martina I'm sure some of us would join you.

Passive aggressive indicates a clandestine form of communication for those who are unable or fearful of expressing their feelings or thoughts in a direct manner.

I am actually pretty straightforward, and pretty darn clever, and use humor and imagery well.

Is anyone else following some of the more entertaining petitions on the whitehouse.gov site?

My favorite funnies....at least I hope they were meant to be funny......

1. Establish new legal system of motorcycle riding "Judges" who serve as police, judge, jury, and executioner all in one.

2. Allow United States Military service members to place their hands in their pockets.

When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the bonds of service to the United States military, this regretful termination of service to this great nation is often precipitated by inane uniform and personal conduct policies.

We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all uniforms have pockets and hands fit perfectly inside them, and they sheathe our knife hands gloriously. It must be acknowledged that placing one's hands in one's pockets is not a sign of disrespect, but a precautionary action to prevent injuries.

Therefore, these undeniable truths being told, the service members of the United States military respectfully request the President of the United States to restore our sacred right to place our hands in our pockets -- on or off duty.

3. provide University graduates ability to trade their diplomas back for 100% tuition refunds.

Because of the inability of recent college graduates to find gainful employment in order to repay their college debt, and since this college debt cannot be eliminated in bankruptcy, and most of the recent additions to the job market have been in service related industries, the Obama administration should take up the cause of reducing college debt and hold those accountable responsible.

In the name of Consumer Protection, recent college graduates should have the ability to return the diploma and not make any reference to receiving education from the college in exchange for a 100% refund of college tuition. This may be extended with a graduated (ha, get it?) reduction for the last four years, with a red line at January 20, 2008.

4. have the President to attend a Fark.com party. If scheduling does not permit, at least have a beer with Drew Curtis

Too many serious petitions on this site asking the President to work his butt off. We believe that he should have a chance to have a good time.

I'm too busy following the latest idiotic moves by John McCain. He's so concerned about Benghazi and wants Watergate-like hearings. Plus he will do whatever is in his power to block Susan Rice from becoming Secretary of State. Meanwhile he was too busy ranting in front of cameras at his press conference yesterday that he missed a classified intelligence briefing on a Senate committee he's serving on. It was a three hour briefing with testimony from officials from the State Department, the Pentagon, the CIA and the National Counterterrorism Center about Benghazi. Apparently there was a "scheduling error."

He calls the Whitehouse administration incompetent and Susan Rice not very bright. This from the man who picked Sarah Palin as his running mate and voted for Condoleezza Rice for Secretary of State despite all of the untruths she passed along from the Bush administration, whereas Susan Rice was not involved in Benghazi and was just the messenger based on CIA briefings on what was known at the time. Yeah he's real concerned about Benghazi.

I say Rubio, Christie, Jeb Bush are all being looked at by the GOP.

I understand all eyes are on Hillary's final call when she leaves as SOS.
