THE GRINCH Is Running For Office; Vows to Repeal Christmas
In a shocking announcement, The Grinch revealed he will be running for office......any office...preferably the largest one...maybe one with a plant. His primary political objective is to be TOUGH on Christmas. Two years ago, he challenged then Mayor of Minneapolis, RT Rybak to cancel Christmas; however he only succeeded in getting fruitcake banned. This year, he is taking the issue to the people!
CHRISTMAS NEEDS TO BE CANCELED:
Your life is in danger:
- Too many grandmas have been run over by reindeer.
- Slexting (texting while sleighing) results in numerous accidents.
- Rudolph's red nose is a highly contagious virus.
Christmas time exploits workers:
- Christmas trees should no longer hold up ornaments for free.
- Elves don't make any wages.
- Reindeer have been furloughed for 364 days out of the year.
Your security and privacy are at risk:
- Santa's tracking app actually tracks you.
- Santa's list is now owned by Google.
- Christmas shopping leads to identity theft.
You aren't safe in your own home:
- Christmas is an excuse for breaking and entering.
- Icicles will poke your eyes out.
- Frozen 2 comes out soon!
Reflecting on his decision to run for office, The Grinch made the following statement: "And the more I thought of the Who-Christmas-Sing, the more I thought, I must stop this whole thing! Why for fifty-three years I've put up with it now! I MUST stop Christmas from coming! ...But HOW? Then I got an idea! An awful idea! I, THE GRINCH, GOT A WONDERFUL, AWFUL IDEA! As Election Day is two weeks away, I will run for office to stop Christmas Day!"
He challenges all politicians, in any office, at any level to a debate on this extremely important issue.
Numerous endorsements have poured in for The Grinch, including: Ebenezer Scrooge, the Abominable Snowman, Mr. Oogie Boogie, Scut Farkas, the Heat Miser, Spike (the Gremlin) and Old Man Potter.
