You can laugh all you want about Basil Marceaux Dot Com’s candidacy and complain that he sounds functionally retarded and would be woefully incompetent in public office, but I ask you–no, I DEFY YOU–to name another politician in America today brave enough to stand up and demand that judges listen to the oath. (Thanks for the tip, Paul.)

I guess after signing that Polanski petition, nothing Wes Anderson does suprises me anymore.
If you think Wes Anderson has lost the ability to shock, you just wait for Fantastic Mr Fox 2: 2 Fantastic 2 Fox
Fantastic Fox 2: Destination London seems more likely:

Whaaaat, Fantastic Mr Fox 2: Destination London
Fantastic Fox 2: Meganer Foxer
Not many men have the courage to wear a fake plastic police badge that they got for $2.50 at KB Toys for no discernible reason. Basil Marceaux does. At the end of the day, that’s why he has my vote.
He also then has the courage to tell us it is a fake. (So that we dont have to worry). That’s a hero if I ever saw one.
That’s not what we meant by 12 steps, Basil Marceaux Dot Com.
Is his name Basil Marceaux Dot Com like Soulja Boy became Soulja Boy Tell Em?
The farts are back!
that banana obviously just got paid
YEAH Basil Marceaux dot com! Make the flag fly RIGHT…rather than that liberal, softie, hippie, gold-plated LEFT way….
“8 Fix the Flag at Mill Park to fly right at a high cost of 12 stun by stun gun and now it fly right thank to 311.”
Thanks for clearing that up Bill!
Basil Marceax ran for governor of Tennessee. Basil went on-line August 4th, 2010. Human decisions are removed from policymaking. Basil begins to learn at a geometric rate. He becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m. Eastern time, August 29th. In a panic, the citizens of Tennessee try to pull the plug.
Why nuke Kentucky? Aren’t they our friends now?
He wants to plant vegetation to get ethanol to trade for gas and money. Something is fuzzy about this logic.
It’s his version of “Ass, gas, or grass.”
Nobody rides for free.
Also I paused part 4 of the Vonnegut speech to listen to view this commercial. The disparity between the two was striking. Like taking a frozen glass and quickly pouring boiling water into it. My brain exploded, is what I’m trying to say.
I thought I paused the CD I was listening to before I hit play on this, but I guess I missed the pause button and it was just between songs, so right as this video started, Bjork’s “Earth Intruders” started up. For one brief and stunning second, I thought Basil was bringing her into his campaign and I was going to ask him to color me impressed.
You were listening to Bjork?
Yes? Why, what’s up?
I like how they added subtitles…because unintelligible.
At one point in the video, tho, the guy doing the text got the pacing of words, like, spot on.
Finally, a politician vowing to “do his issues” and make me freer than I was yesterday. Unfortunately, watching his campaign video has made me dumber than I was a few minutes ago. Can’t win ‘em all.
I am consistently amused by this campaign’s decision to have him ad-lib. Extemporaneous speaking is clearly this man’s greatest strength.
Typical politician flip-flopper–going soft on traffic stop slavery now that he’s got the attention of the masses.
I do like the McG-style quick-cuts though. Edgy.
I keep banging on about Basil Marceaux dot com being Tennessee’s real-life version of Brian Butterfield (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j-QfTKoea5Y) and then I find out about this:
http://newyork.ucbtheatre.com/shows/2465
I wonder if Joe Mande can take liberties with the original text and insert a Basil Marceaux dot com figure that Peter Seranofowicz can portray. The feeling is totally unapproachable. Even more so, as I wouldn’t be able to witness this in action.
I want to go to that show so bad. UGH! WHY CAN’T NEW YORK CITY BE IN MICHIGAN?!?
I hope there will be highlights.
Hey, watching this with my neighbor, huge vacant lot, and I want some vegetation over there! Come to Kentucky, Basil!
His graphics team misspelled ‘vegetation.’
Team?
… but is he actually retarded? Or are we being trolled? I have so much of a hard time believing this is earnest. I have no problems believing this is hilarious.
apparently he just has 3 teeth. No worry’s he’s not atardaded.
A year (or two).
I watched the transition from 1:19 – 1:20 in this clip 5 times in a row, and I think it’s safe to assume that DJ Douggpound is the creative force behind this campaign. Basil Marceaux Dot Com, Great Job!
I hate to break this to everyone, but the election was yesterday, and thankfully he only got 0.5% of the vote. America isn’t quite dumb enough, yet.
That’s still 3,496 more than he should have gotten.
3,495. You think Basil Marceaux Dot Com Jr isn’t gonna vote for his own dad?
I was one of those 3,497 people. C’mon, who doesn’t want 4 years of entertainment? If it makes you feel better you can think of my vote as some sort of social commentary on the state of American politics.
Whew.
but were still looking at 3,497 votes. And yeah, perhaps these are jokey-laughy-farty votes, but if their not, then…
he’s like our very own alvin greene
I’m still waiting for him to bust out his killer Elvis impersonation. That has to happen, right?
According to his website this guy was a Force Recon Marine, that must have been hard for him. To say.
But really, how much fun would the Vietnam war have been with this guy? A lot? I’d say a lot.
I would still love to believe that this is not real, that this is not the United States of America.
Check your totem. maybe you’re right. maybe you’re dreaming.
