NOT the White House Press Release (dammit!)
•
by George Armstrong Custer
The eRep Admins' overnight adjustments knocked a similar number of votes off both Technician and Blank Keating, so this morning dawns on the same winner as we were looking at as the polls closed.
Congratulations, President Blank Keating!
Serious, no bull.. I'm sure the whole Technician team, and all Americans, are behind you.
You da man, we await your instructions.
I had prepared this piece for the White House Press Report, to be ready for publication the moment we got the keys to the joint. Not one to let good work go to waste, I publish it in my own paper as a challenge to President Blank Keating, his Cabinet, and all Americans.
Alright, America...
Break Time's Over!
Dateline : Wednesday July 6 (Day 1323)
Location: White House Press Room, California
Reporter: George Armstrong "Old Man" Custer; Press Director
Welcome, America, to the new White House Press Room.
Yes, it looks the same as ever.. but there's something different.
Something... new.
What's that I smell...? Is it... could it be...? Change?
Ahh, that's it-- it's not politics as usual anymore!
America has elected a military leader and a team builder.
America has elected a leadership team whose goal is to reunite all Americans to be the greatest fighting force on the eRep map. A team who includes you, who will accomplish this goal together, through aggressive implementation of three simple keys:
Cooperation, Coordination, and Communication.
The locks which block our way are ignorance, arrogance, and petty jealousy.
Every American holds the keys to unlock these barriers.
You, every single American, are important. You matter. You are one of 8,287 integral components to the success, or failure, of our nation.
We Americans love our individualism. We move ourselves into groups where we are most comfortable-- political groups, fighting units, social cliques. This is a good thing, because we are Americans and we will be free to wear flowers in our hair, or paint our beer bellies blue, drive our electric roller skates or pound the streets in our redneck trucks with the giant tires.
The problem comes when we forget that we are all of the same blood, that no matter our varied interests we have one common home-- America.
The problem comes when we proclaim ourselves, our group, our mindset, to be superior to all other Americans.. that my group is great while yours sucks.. that I have rights and privileges and you don't.. that me and mine demand respect but will not offer the same.
America... Americans.. we're family.
Okay, so we're a fractured multi-ethnic family at a really drunk and crazy Thanksgiving dinner, but... the neighbors have gone insane and are stealing our beer. They've messed with Grandma's pies. They have defiled our goddam bird!
Ya think it might just be time for the freaks and the straights, the jocks and the geeks, the oldfags and newfags and milfags and politifags to remember that we are all Americans, and the crazy neighbors are running rampant through OUR HOUSE and it's time to stop the bickering among ourselves and fight the sumbitches together?
And now, it is my distinct honor and privilege to present to America...

lol nice article
Challenge accepted,
SoM Gnilraps.
I painted my beer belly red \o/
very well written.
Sorry you didn't get your spot in the cabinet, Custer!
/me settles in for another month of same old, same old.
Good article Custer. The Blank Keating administration better pick you up for something in their media department.
Say goodbye to America for ever. Nothing is going to change.
You not being Media Director saddens me, Custer. I'm sorry. You deserve it. Excellent job anyway. Hugs.
Good stuff, Custer. 7o!
Well Written Custer : ) It is a shame you aren't media director, regardless of who's Potus,
then again Gnilraps is great too
Awesome as always old friend.

yeah, kinda a bummer to miss out on the Media Boss job. I was looking forward to working with Gnilraps, and had suggested we call ourselves "Co-Director" instead of Director and Deputy Director.
Gnilraps has already reached out to me, and I'll be happy to lend a hand in any way I can. YOU (all) should, too!
My President, your President, just not an issue this time around. We were blessed with an opportunity to choose between two excellent candidates, each possessing their own list of qualities-- what fun would it have been if they were alike? So we got this one instead of that one, we'll do it this way instead of that way-- as long as "do it" means we do it together, and "do it" means we kick some Hun ass and reclaim America, as long as "do it" means we learn to embrace our differences while we work together for OUR America.
United we stand ! Let's get together and kick some enemies asses !
They have defiled our goddam bird!!!!!
Custer you really are one of the best writers in the game and hands down you are my favorite. I LOVE reading your work. I think it is a shame that you won't be Media Director and I think it is an even bigger shame that you haven't even at least been asked to be Media Deputy Director. You would have done a damn fine job.
Great job to both candidates on running such an exciting race! only a 15 vote difference in the end. I haven't gotten to watch such a close race in a very long time. Thank you for such a nerve wrecking night lol!
if anyone could donate to me it be kool i just started today an need alittle to upgrade town hall so i can do more damage or maby get a gun or 2 so i can show spain an the rest of the world what a Eus girl can do when we are put in the corner 🙂
"America... Americans.. we're family.

^ I love this.
I'm going to ransack all of the closets until I find my Official Red Ryder Carbine-Action Two-Hundred-Shot Range Model Air Rifle! I promise I won't shoot your eye out. I mean mine, my eye! I won't shoot my eye out! 😁
