2. He'll make us forget all about Rudolph Valentino
(I'm sorry, that's my favorite Burns line, from the ep where he fell in love):D

6. LOL that is a good line!
"It was made from the pocket of a pocket fox."

"What's a pocket fox?"

"It's an animal that existed for two weeks in the 16th Century."

3. Nah. Isn't he even older than Reagan?
Uh, than Reagan was, that is.

Not to mention that I think he's to the right of Hitler politically.

;)

8. He's only 104 years young
Mr Burns does have compassion, he often compares himself to Oskar Schindler - he once protested:

"I'm not much different than Oskar Schindler: we were both plant owners, we both made shells for the Nazis, but mine worked, damnit!".

10. He'd pick up the all-important Nazi vote.
That's an important constituency, right? And, we'd probably pick up the Neo-Nazi vote by association.

Hey, if we pick up the Neo-Nazi vote, we might lose Montana by only 39.9% instead of 40%!!

9. Which is odd considering he claims to not watch TV.
I read that in Vanity Fair. Do the Pentacostals not have a problem with the Simpsons?

13. Only a moran wouldn't vote for Monty Burns!
So of course, we wouldn't be gaining anything.

Smithers: There is a man,
Chorus: There is a man!
Smithers: A certain man,

are known across the land.
You know his name,

Smithers: It's Mr. Burns,
Chorus: It's Mr. Burns!
Smithers: He loves a smoke, enjoys a joke,
Burns & Chorus: Ah ha ha ha!

Smithers: He's Monty Burns!
Burns: I'm MR. Burns!
Smithers & Chorus: To friends he's known as Monty
but to you it's Mr. Burns!

17. Tito Puente's Revenge
Singer: Wounds won't last long, but an insulting song
Burns will always carry with him,
So I'll settle my score on the salsa floor,
With this vengeful Latin rhythm.

Chorus: Bu-urns!
Singer: Con un corrazon de perro.
Chorus: Senor Bu-urns!
Singer: El diablo con dinero.

It may not surprise you,
But all of us despise you,
Please die,
And fry,
In Hell,
You rotten,
Rich old wretch,
Adios viejo!

19. Happy Birthday (Ramones version)
Joey: I'd just like to say this gig sucks!
Johnny: Hey, up yours, Springfield.
Joey: One, two, three, four!

Happy Birthday to you! (Happy Birthday!)
Happy Birthday to you! (Happy Birthday!)
Happy Birthday, Burnsey,
Happy Birthday to you!
Dee Dee: Go to hell, you old bastard.
Marky: Hey, I think they liked us!

16. "Oppression and harrasment are a small price to pay...
...to live in the Land of the Free!"


"Ketchup...catsup...ketchup...catsup...oh, I'm in over my head!"


"Books and cocao in the same shop? What's next, a talking banana? Of course the idea of a talking banana is ludicrous...but, still..."
