Reminds me of when I went to a faculty get-together hosted by Richard Gentry, and when we couldn’t find it the helpful directions-lady we asked then inquired if we were part of “the Rich Gentry group.”

HEE-hee, sophylou and all. I agree with Perpetua that we rarely have the opportunity not to vote for “Rich Whitey.”

I never get tired of rich white doodz. With all the rage, and racism and entitlement, and I don’t know how I’d ever understand anything without mansplanations for all phenomena. Rich Whitey gets my vote every time. Though more seriously it makes me kind of sad that this error happened to the Green Party candidate, since the green party is lots more diverse than the others.

“Rich ‘Dick’ Whitey” would cover all the bases…

This is too funny. Really seems like a Chicagoland thing, too. Rich enough to run for guv’nor, so he won’t need a bag man. No bliss, no blige…

Totally hilarious! He’s the Green Party candidate and the error isn’t in all of Chicago’s voting machines–but one wonders how all the news coverage may affect voting.

Finally! Some honest politicking, by mistake of course.

I”m not too sure that “Dick Whitey” would have been much of an improvement.

That is hilarious!
