Republicans, Democrats Unite In Good Laugh Over Reform Party | The Onion - America's Finest News Source

Republicans, Democrats Unite In Good Laugh Over Reform Party The Onion - America's Finest News Source:

"WASHINGTON, DC—In a rare moment of bipartisan unity, lawmakers on both
sides of the aisle fondly recalled the Reform Party Tuesday. 'Remember 'Ross For
Boss'?' Sen. Bill Frist (R-TN) said, laughing uncontrollably at the memory of
the closest thing America has seen to a viable third party in recent history.
'Plus Trump, Warren Beatty... And what was the deal with that crazy admiral guy
who died?' Sen. Edward Kennedy (D-MA) joined in the fun, saying, 'And that
platform they had full of, aw, who knows what. 'Reform,' I guess!' The senators
then spent an hour slapping each other on the backs, gleefully recalling the
Reform Party's credo of 'radical centrism' and pro wrestler Jesse Ventura's
election as governor of Minnesota. Said Robert Byrd (D-WV): 'They really thought
they had something going there for a while!'"
