Thanks 

Paris Hilton

for the heads-up on this. I'll avoid becoming a fascist dictator if I can, because I value keeping my balls. I can use them when I think of the attached

their is a difference between a dictator and a dick taker.

Dave Murray

David Wiernicki

Wow. Those dictators... 

Coat

Sebastian Brosig

So for a *really* evil fascist dictator?!! 

Jacqui Smith has none!

At a slight tangent... 

Stalin had a little lamb

It gave him naughty urges

He put it up against the wall

And shot it, in the Purges.

Bastard, beat me to it.

Flawed theory though, Gordon should be Emperor of the universe by now though, he's dropped that many bollocks.

@David Wiernicki 

Surely it would be a bunch of nut?

I was there!

Well, I lived in Spain from 1968 to 1977.

I was in college 25th November '75 when Franco was finally declared dead, after several days of seeing him stiffed-out in front of TVE, when the Spanish TV broadcasters finally conceded the bastard checked out.

Within 48 hours all the magazine stalls had the most explicit porn mags you can imagine and cinemas released the likes of Last Tango in Paris and Clockwork Orange. No-one gave a f**k about democracy, they just wanted to have a good w**k within the privacy of their homes or the shared environment of a smelly, smoked out cinema... Don't ask.

Previously you risked arrest if seen on a street with two or more friends, as it was considered a political meeting. You and your friends could disappear for up to a month before your families found where you were held and once in a while you would not return. Ever.

Anyway, it would not be a surprise to me to learn Frankie Franco had less than a full complement of balls.

Paris because she'd have got away somehow!

Dave

Which side? 

Is there a correlation here? Did they all lose the left one, resulting in a bias to the right? Do communist dictators lose the right one?

minus one

Always wondered what was wrong with Roosevelt...now I know

Paris...because she knows one from two

Only has one ball. Sort of. And he couldn't even get that right.
