I would have thought that most of the humor in this group is political, having seen items like BLKTRAN, gay jokes, Mexican jokes, girlie jokes, dead marine jokes, etc. I'm sorry if "friendly autocrat" jokes hit too close to home, but after working against Military Aid to El Salvador for the past several years, only to see it rise every year, and now to see how close we are to full-scale "pacification," its either laugh or cry. Somoza (during education conference in Costa Rica): "I don't want educated peasants, I want Oxen." D'Aubuisson (to German Reporter): "You Germans are smart; you realized that the Jews were responsible for the spread of Communism, so you killed them."
