Hey, I just realized I look like that actor guy, you know, Jay Sanders. That’s cool, especially when I cross my arms like this.

Brady meets with acting coach to learn how to be “act” more serious.
Brady, “I’m serious about being serious, seriously!”

So, Brady, what’s the plan?
Comment by Wensicia Tuesday, Sep 28, 10 @ 2:57 pm
Young voters? I can get them! I’ll go on TV and do the Macarena, that is still cool, right?
Comment by rawrddd Tuesday, Sep 28, 10 @ 2:57 pm
I’ll do 12 different poses like this. We’ll sell Gov Brady At Work calendars, and that will solve the deficit.
(The Lady): YEAH!

“Let me tell you one more thing BILL Brady … you keep my Jason up past 9:30 on a school night again, and he is NOT going to play that ‘Lt. Major thingy’ you and his Daddy want him to play. You should have seen him stare into his Lucky Charms, reading his comics this morning … broke my heart … You hear me!!!”

I was gonna do a Plummer’s mom reference, but I thought I’d wait a few minutes because OW would surely take care of it. Glad to know I wasn’t wrong. lol

“No! Wrong! How many times do I have to tell you, Senator Brady? It’s right arm outside, left arm inside. And you need to glower more. Right now, you just look confused!”

“Jason, you tell Mr. Brady you’re sorry for making Origami out of his polling data young man! He is kind enough to have you around, so you just walk right over here and say you are sorry to Mr. Brady … NOW MISTER!”

“Bill Brady, was it your idea to send my baby boy Jason to Chicago and talk to evil Phil Ponce? He’s just a kid and you sent him to the wolves … unarmed, like a baby deer during hunting season … was it you Bill … or was it … JERRY!?!?!?!?!?”

“You come up with an idea for the budget right now Mister! The press isn’t going to let you off the hook forever. Eventually Pat will shut up like you have for the last 9 months and then what will you do?!” Brady-”I don’t want to and you can’t make me!”

Awe Mom, I don’t want to give it to the food shelter, even if it’s a tax deduction. It’s not like its a 911 GT2. It’s a boxter for Pete’s sake, half the people in town drive more expensive cars.
Comment by 618er Tuesday, Sep 28, 10 @ 3:32 pm
“Senator, I mean Governor, are you sure that if we stare at this deficit long enough that it will just go away? I mean we tried the 10% cuts. We eliminated the gas tax. We reduced taxes on businesses. Governor, how long do we have to keep staring at these horrible numbers!!!???”
Comment by vole Tuesday, Sep 28, 10 @ 3:34 pm
Dangit
That one should have been give it to Meals on Wheels, not give it to the food shelter.

Brady sharply interjects: “Did You know I am up in the polls? DID YOU? Well After some serious consideration” “I couldn’t care less about that story! And the chicken here sucks!

Jeannie, somewhat more mature than she appeared on “I Dream of Jeannie”, tries to teach Gov. Brady how to make the budget problem disappear.
“Now, Master, cross your arms, close your eyes, and nod your head. Then listen for the tinkle music.”

Mrs. Jerry Clarke gets mad at her newest foster son, namely Bill Brady, after Bill ignores her husband’s prepared script by telling supporters that his secret plan to balance the state’s budget is to increase taxes.

Comment by 4 percent Tuesday, Sep 28, 10 @ 6:36 pm
Sen. Bill Brady and supporter…upon learning that Rich Miller neglected to announce a winner from his running mate’s caption contest. “I mean, if you’re going to have a contest, there should be a winner. And, frankly, I had some gems in there. But, seriously, it’s like if Gov. Tax it All and I debated for months and months and there was never an election. Although that is intriguing because then I wouldn’t have to announce my budget plan…ever. But, no, it’s not right. And who knows how Kwame feels. I mean, I never met the man, but I heard he serves in the Senate. Whatever. Rich Miller…who is this guy?”
Supporter: “Hey Senator, I know you’re paying all of us here to look angry about the caption contest…but is there a chance I could get the same amount of $ as the fellas? I am actually in the photo, you know.”
