Cynthia, Covington, Ga.

Good Afternoon Folks,

I’m Kermit the Frog reporting Live for CNN.

“Don’t worry Eliot, I’ll always be the slimiest guy in politics”

Yesterday I heard we had a puppet president and I got so excited I had to come see for myself!!!

Iowa City Iowa

“Let me start by thanking President McCain for appointing me ‘Secretary of the Interior’…”

Kermit announced he would be running for office on the Green Party ticket.

“Please don’t be quick to judge…not all pork is bad in this place…Miss Piggy, for example, is one fine swine…and she’s mine!”

Washington is for dummies!!!

Rahni, Windsor CT

Pulling some strings on Capitol Hill

Forget Ralph Nader, if you want a Green President vote for me !

Miss Piggy and Animal have gone inside to straighten them ALL out. No, not Hillary and Obama….Miss Piggy and Animal!

I AM WATING FOR HILLARY TO KISS ME SO I CAN TURN TO OBAMA….

DR- STEVE RAMSEY- HIGH LEVEL, ALBERTA- CANADA

…since the EPA can’t do anything, and Nader is…well, Nader…I’ve decided to announce my candidacy for the Green Party!

Kermit for President!
At least we KNOW someone else does the talking for him.

“Hey I’m open for VP slot. Lets go Green”

Jeana S. Bledsoe,TN

“The Muppets Take D.C.” (a vast improvement over the current administration)

I’ve come to be Hillary’s new running mate! I’m cute, and I’m green, and I’ll be a vote getting machine! Exactly what she’s looking for…

Cynthia, Covington, Ga.

Yes it’s true, George Bush is a muppet

Ladies and gentlemen, behind my as you can see is our play ground.

Geraldine Ferraro said I wouldn’t be here in Washington if I weren’t a green frog.

My gig will be over as soon as the elections start. Will the next president be interested in my services?

HI-HO…Kermit the Frog here coming to you from the place that never sleeps…uh works…um does anything…AWW…I messed up again!! I’ll NEVER get Anderson Cooper’s job reporting this way!

Cynthia, Covington, Ga.

Will the next VP pull my strings once am elected? Its already happening now anyways!!

HMMM, I wonder if there are any young, green call girls in this city who would come over to my “pad” for hopping good time?

“So we all going GREEN, huh”! Atleast that is what I’ve been told.

Just what this country needs, a good “green” party candidate!

A new White House spokesman is appointed to cover the remaining months of the Bush administation.

There are a lot of possible first out there running for president, how about the first Gieco pet - guaranteed to lower your taxes!

Tseada from San Jose, CA

HMMMMM, I wonder if Geraldine would say I got here just because I am green????

“Vote for me if you care about the environment, cause…. there ain’t nobody greener than me!”

Hi, I’m looking for my buddy AC. Doesn’t he work in DC? He promised me he’d keep in touch after I landed him that guest spot on Sesame Street and I haven’t heard a peep out of him. That’s gratitude for you.

Charlotte D
Stockton CA

Handsome frog, with only one string attached, looking for discreet govenor or congressman for a toad-illy awesome time!

“Ferraro says, The only reason I’m here is because I’m GREEN!”

No, I’m not Kermit. But since Hilly is in this house my skin turned from brown to green! How is that, Ferraro?

(Sorry for this joke. I hope Obama will win and make Hilly green!)

…don’t worry President Obama…It isn’t easy being green.

…don’t worry President Obama…It isn’t easy being green.

Well, unless you’re Lincoln, Wilson, FDR, JFK…

Kermit, you’ve been elected President of the United States. You’re smart, articulate and green!!

“Unfortunately, Miss Piggy could not join us in this press conference today. She found out I was CLIENT #10!”

At last, a candidate we can agree on…

It’s not easy being (of the) Green (party)

After Obama and Clinton failed to get the nomination, Kermit the Frog emerged from the Democratic Convention as the party’s Presidential candidate.

BREAKING NEWS - Authorities release picture of suspected Emperor’s Club “client 10″

“I did not have sexual relations with that pig!”

“The notion that it is a great advantage to me, a green frog named Kermit, in pursuit of the presidency I think is not a view that has been commonly shared by the general public”

“Forget black or white, I think we need some green in Washington”

Now there’s two puppets in Washington!

Someday we’ll find it
The bipartisan connection
the republicans, the democrats, and me

Rob (Brooklyn, NY)

What a meal…..they all taste like chicken

Piggy says, “Don’t eat pork.” You know how she is if you don’t do as she says!

Yes folks, the politicans are back in Washington….croaking and sitting on thier lily pads.

I’m Kermit The Frog and I approve this message…is that good Hillary?
THEN UNTIE MY HANDS!!!!

“Obama should be elected as president so we both can be green.”

I would like to announce , I , Kermit will seek the Green Party Nomination for President.

“Excuse me a minute. The president is still pulling my strings.”

Now that Ralph Nadar is no longer running, the party has chosen the second most Green candidate!

If we can have the first black president, why not the first green vice-president? Obama-Kermit ‘08!

I’m all for the pork if it keeps them away from frogs legs.

Mc Cain, Obama, Clinton where do they really stand on environmental issues? It’s not easy being green.

Here I am on the town, Miss piggy is out shopping with hillary for some new, never seen before pant suits from China, made by children for $2.14 a week

It ain’t easy being green.

Kermit’s campaign for senate was running smoothly until he mistakingly played the “amphibian card”.

If it gets Ms Piggy out of my life, I’m all for it.

Kermit: Anderson Cooper is my favorite anchor, He must choose joke winner beat 360 tonight, I met him my show Sesame Street.

Geraldine Ferraro said I could win the Presidency in France because of…..well obvious reasons.

In deciding whether or not to run for president, Kermit the Frog said that frogism is definately one of his biggest obstacles.

Kermit’s campaign for senate was running smoothly until he mistakenly played the “amphibian card”.

And if elected President of the United States, I will make Al Gore my VP and we will make the Greening of America our pet project. And its not easy ……….being green!

Kermit the Frog, giving hope to the nation’s future.

- I’m Kermit the Frog and I approve this message.

Lobbyists in Washington were sorely dissappointed today; they were looking for puppets, NOT muppets!

Courtney Davies
Urbana, IL

Recently Kermit the Frog was sent in under cover to get an exclusive interview with Chelsea Clinton, But Chelsea was wisked away by Body Guards when Kermit asked the Daughter of Hillary Clinton “what do you think”

“I’m here to officially enter my bid to be the “voice of 360″……GO GREEN”

Bush Administration’s Environmental Policy: It’s Not Easy Being Green!

Kermit: Miss Piggy!! I can’t kiss her yet! I can’t marry you, I can’t eat all pork.
Megan D.
Shoreline, Wa

See, I’ve got strings just like the people in the building behind me!

Mt. Pleasant, MI

No, no this not the Vatican it’s the White House!

AAHHHhhhhhhhhh! My time of year…..LEAP YEAR!!

Geraldine Ferraro told me the only reason I’m successful is because I’m a green male frog!

It’s quite the norm to have a cartton character in front of the white house But when Obama Wins This indeed will CHANGE.

“Ferraro, it doesn’t matter if you are black, white, or green!”

Kermit for Kongress…has a nice ring to it.

Kermit: no taxes, read my lips! no pork, read my lips!

Whenever I’m in DC I stay at the Mayflower Hotel.
Nudge-nudge-wink-wink!

“Because I’m green, Ms. Ferraro, and a frog, has nothing to do with my position.”

Ed
Occoquan, VA

Vote for Change! Kermit - the Green Party candidate!

No Anderson. I seriously don’t know where you pick-up these rumors.
I don’t know anything about a petite frog named Kristen.

No, Ms Ferarro, I did not get to where I am because I’m green

I am stuck on band-aids, cause band-aids stuck on me!

See told ya- Puppets do run the white house!
Obama 08!!

“Oh No!! One of the real senators has escaped!!”

I feel ya, Al Gore. It is NOT easy being green.

Hey there, welcome to the new and improved muppet show. We got better production and money to burn.

“The President refused to comment on the drugs in the drinking water report today, citing no evidence of harmful effects”

“If they let those clowns in, my being a puppet should be no problem at all.”

They were right! As a puppet, I feel right at home here!

I think I lost Miss. Piggy in there somewhere.

Metallica re-released their Master of Puppets album. This is the new redesigned album cover.

if you vote for me, I promise not to be just another candidate with someone else’s hand up my *&# !!!

Like most people around here I’m just another puppet…

I’m a “Muppet” not a “Dummy” , I just wouldn’t fit in CONGRESS

I’m just like everyone here - It’s the people who pull my strings that make me move.

Put “Fozzy Bear” in congress, they could always use another comedian!

I think any frog would be happy to be John McCain’s Vice President. Even me. And he doesn’t have to worry about earmarks — I have no ears.

It’s not easy being green with this administration in the white house.

An attempt by the Clinton campaign to show that they can win the youth vote has gone a little far…

So many puppets with too many strings in DC

Red & blue candidates worry as green candidate launches write in campaign.
“I am the only true outsider and my chances of changing things is as good as anybodys!” Kermit charges.

I’d really like to hear more from the candidates about going green, but I suppose it doesn’t really matter what I think….I live in the Everglades so my vote doesn’t count anyway.

Ah–Washington DC–my favorite place–you know they have pork in a barrel here!!

“This is Kermit, reporting to you from in front of the Congressional BRT. (That’s bureaucrat-speak for Big Round Thing.)”

Unlike Obama and Clinton, Kermit is openly courting the Vice-Presidential nomination.

My belly may say there’s a lot of pork in DC but did you know it really tastes like chicken?

I’m here to report that it’s true, since 2001 Washington has gone to the frogs.

Charles Cheeseman
St. John’s, Canada

At this point you pretty much need a Secret Service detail to keep Ms. Piggy at bay.

“Believe me! Race, gender and species don’t matter!”

We don’t want to hear about red state and blue states… we demand action for green states!

When I heard I’d be on CNN, I nearly croaked.

Charles Cheeseman
St. John’s, Canada

Hand me a red tie, so I can take another great leap for mankind!

Kermit thought two old geezers heckling was bad. The Capitol has 535.

Kermit, The Frog here…I am announcing my candidacy for President, representing the Amphibian party.

You mean I look like this because of drugs in the water? I thought I was just prematurely greening…. (like Anderson’s “Salt and Pepper” color”) wink wink

I’m David Gergen reporting from Washington

Kermit is auditioning to be Karl Rove’s new mouthpiece once George Bush leaves.

“Folks…I’m really wired to be your next President!”

Warm, hot day
Global temperatures boiling away
On my way to where they’re living cool

Can you tell me how to get,
How to get to an Antartica pool

“I’d rather being watching and episode of Pigs In Space!”

Can you believe Miss Piggy said I wouldnt be here today if I werent a frog. back to you Anderson and Erica.

This will show Clinton who is greener.
Yes we can!

For you Geraldine to say that I owe my success to the fact that I am Green is insulting and ridiculous! I reject and denounce the accusation!

Linda
Marion, Virginia
My friends its me Saint Kermit Patrick. Patron Saint of Washington.

We took Manhattan in ‘84 ….. but then again … maybe I’m just lucky I’m green!

Geraldine Ferraro’s assertions that my popularity is due to me being green is “Patently Absurd” .

I’m here to replace Mr Cheney’s current handpuppet, anybody seen a big dancing robot?

Hey Anderson: Look at my guns, I’ve been working out too!

Jolene, St. Joseph, MI

It’s not easy being a greenback in this economy!

I’ve eaten the fly on the wall, so there’s no chance you’ll be hearing anything in the press from the Senate floor about Barack’s or Hillary’s tongue-in-cheek mutual encounter.

Kermit here, filling in this week for Anderson; yes, he FINALLY took a vacation !

” I am not a puppet of the Green Party!!!!!!!!!”

Hi-ho, Kermit T. Frog here, speaking to you from the nation’s capital where I’m about to address a Senate task force on the creation of green-collar jobs.

Kermit The Frog’s Slogan as he announces his candidacy for the Green Ticket in the 2008 Presidential Election: “Someday we’ll find it, the Rainbow Connection. Obama, Hillary or MEEEEEEEEEE!”

I am Kermit the frog and I approved this message!

Think I can leap over that dome?

Hi Ho, Kermit the Frog here in beautiful Washington DC, however, I don’t think this is what they were thinking when they said DC was going green…

“I love a good freak show. That is why I come here to visit every year.”

Get these strings off my arms!!! They’re about to waterboard me!

Hey guys, Kermit the Frog here!
Reporting live from the Bunny Ranch in Las Vegas, oh wait I mean the Capital of the United States.

This photo was taken by Kermit’s call girl, Miss Piggy. We are just getting information coming in now that the affair has been going back to the early 80’s

Thank God I’m a frog, I heard Mike Huckabee only eats squirrel.

Im here for the plague, where is everybody?

Original tune: The Rainbow Connection

Singing:

“Why are there so many news about white house?
and who’s gonna be there soon?… (1st line)

Someday I’ll find out who’s gonna be in charge…
the barack, the hill, or mccain…..” (last phrase of chorus)

sing it anderson/erica !

You know, the only reason Barack Obama is winning is because he’s not green.

Hi ho Kermit the Frog here. Ahead of us is the capitol bulding where the people you elect go at each other like Miss piggy and Monica Lewinsky.

After Miss Piggy’s historic candidacy, Kermit hopes the become this nations first First Froggy.

AL GORE was going to let me be his Vice President.. We were
running on the GREEN TICKET

It’s not easy being green in Washington

This political race between Spongebob and myself boils down to ONE question- At 3am who do you trust to save your bacon? Hmmmm?

I’m here to rescue my true love Miss Piggy ! I hear these politicians in the capital love pork.

Give me the beat to “Morning train” by Shena Easton

A hooker takes the morning train
she works client #9 and then

Yes I think Kermit D. Frog , Miss Piggy will be a very attractive ticket.

Right after this picture Kermit moved out of the way of a falling tree. Luckily he wasn’t hurt but the video did make it on AC 360’s show for some stupid reason.

Hey Guys! You won’t believe it - this town is crawling with puppets!

I came to show Obama how the Kennedys pull your strings after they back you up.

Kermit the Frog here - Breaking News folks - Miss Piggy has just been awarded Jenna Bush’s dress designer for her upcoming wedding - President Bush was just thrilled with this of course, so thrilled that he asked Gonzo to cater the party. Back to you Anderson.

Be careful folks, you can’t get near this building without someone trying to stick their hand in your pocket, or, in my case, up my backside.

Just look at her. One day, even a frog like me, may one day…..Yes We Can!

This is what is left after Obama won the Presidency!

After everyone immigrated, it’s me and that House behind that is left.

“This is between me and that gecko from Gieco,….McCain you stay out of this!!”

Kermit the frog is happy to announce that he is the new super delegate for New York due to the Spitzer sex scandal.

Today in Washington Kermit gracefully accepted the Muppet Party’s nomination despite the recent Ms. Piggy scandal, with obvious signs of voter intimidation..

Today’s program is brought to you by, The number 2,025. and by the the letter D. and C.

Kermit: With the recent attacks on my credibility by Miss Piggy and her 3am Fozzy Bear ads, I’ve decided to counteract them with my own 6am Big Bird ads.

Okay! Where’s the lobby for the proliferation of bugs?

I finally get invited to Washington and it turns out they wanted Nicolas Sarkozy!

It’s time for DC to go GREEN!

Kermit for President in 2008!

There’s no business like show business. I could fit in pretty good around here. Maybe I should hop for president.

Since the democratic race is so close, why don’t I just live here?

This is Kermit THE Frog and I’m the new lobbiest in town… they won’t be able to resist me!

Kermit’s campaign hit a rough spot today as accusations of strong ties to the pupeteer mob syndacate surfaced.

Russell Saine
Cary, NC

“HEY!! I’m slimy by nature. That DOESN’T mean you should automatically stick me HERE!!”

Am I the only one working in this town?

Can you direct me to the Mayflower hotel? I’m late for my appointment.

Reporter: Kermit, what is your reaction to Ms. Piggy’s campaign advisor saying I wouldn’t be this close to the White House if I wasn’t green.

Sorry folks, Ralph couldn’t make so he asked me to Represent the Party.

I have decided to endorse Anderson Cooper for president.

1 simple slogan: “Frog for President, it’s better than who is in there now!”

…and you thought my warts were bad!

Governor Kermit here looking for someone other than Ms Piggy here in Washington.

“If I’m elected into ofice I promise the lobbyist groups won’t pull the strings in Washington.”

Unlike Mrs. Spitzer, Miss Piggy refused to stand by my side as I apologized for my indiscretions. To whom much is given, much is green.

I strongly denounce and reject the assertion that my color and the fact that I am a puppet toad did not have anything to do with how far I have come!!!!!

After much consideration, I have decided that the public has a right to know that I too slept with the govener for money.

Come on Geraldine I’ve saved you a spot on the long train ride back to I-can’t-belive-she-said-that-ville!

Well, I made it and beat Hippity Clinton. Ribit Baraka here. The Audacity of Hop! It works all the time.

Today, Hillary happily announces kermit the frog as part of her campaign team, she finnally has somebody she can control.

Kermit the Frog was dismissed from his position at Sesame Street after this nude photo of him appeared on myspace. Hillary Clinton has since renounced his support.
