President Gerald Ford dead at 93

[Catman]

mehh kinda forgettable and not a good president..at least he lived a long life.

Well, atleast he provided enough comedy for SNL/Chevy Chase to spoof him all the time.

I wonder how SNL will handle those Ex-President sketches now that both Regan and Ford have passed away!

The same way they handled Nixon?

 

[Catman]

Nixon wasn't an Ex-President.

 

[Duende Verde]

Nixon wasn't an Ex-President.

Yes, he was. They summoned him back from the grave in one episode.

 

[Catman]

Yes, he was. They summoned him back from the grave in one episode.

So, Regan and Ford will be summoned from the grave?! I think its too soon for that. They'll probably wait a year or two before doing anything Ex-President related.

Ex-Presidents are retired.

Rest In Peace.

R.I.P. May not have been the best president in the world...but still tragic.

 

[Super Kal]

that sucks... may he rest in peace.

 

[Wilhelm-Scream]

It's not "tragic".
He was 93 years old.
Probably a huge relief to escape that wizened, creaky old body...and the "old president" smell.

RIP President Ford. Not the greatest President, but most certainly not the worst either.
You got robbed in '76...

Though he played football under the Michigan banner, he'll always be a Husker to me...

 

[I SEE SPIDEY]

He had a good run.

Rest In Peace.

Does anyone else remember the SNL sketch where Tom Brokaw (I forget who played him) was trying to get the summer off, so he was pre-recording possible news stories about Gerald Ford dying?

"Geeerald Foorrrd, Died today, he was mauled by a kangaroo" and other weird crap like that. It was pretty funny.

 

[DarthRekal]

Rest In Peace.

God Rest Your Soul

You can see it in his eyes; even Ford wouldn't have pardoned these two.

You mean the one I posted 1 page ago?

Wow!
10 years after Dana Carvey predicted it!

"Former President Gerald Ford was eaten by wolves. He was delicious."

"Gerald Ford is dead today and I am gay."

"... chopped into little bits by the propeller of a commuter plane."

Well... kinda.

What are the chances that Tom Browkaw announces that his new boyfriend is Lance Bass?

I'm still waiting for a fireball to hit France.

I'm still waiting for a fireball to hit France.

I'm sure some French Muslims will get right on that.
