Eddie Izzard, the cross-dresser too talented to be just a comedian and too homely to be just an actor, is considering adding a new position to his CV: European politician.
In an interview with Newsweek, the 46-year-old Brit said: "We've got to make it work in Europe … People are very worried about sovereignty and the loss of sovereignty. I think the stakes are if we don't make the European Union work, then the world is screwed. End of story."
That a transvestite comedian who once said of Easter, "Kids eat chocolate eggs because of the color of the chocolate and the color of the…wood on the cross?" can even think of running for office in Europe says a lot about the state of things over there as opposed to America. We hope he gives his victory speech in a frilly gown.

He's got my vote!
after he wins he can take over the world with the cunning use of flags.
…and this is not a game of "Who The Fuck Are You?"
YOU! Cake or death?
that's easy, i'll take the cake.
I think he'd be great, he is, after all, an executive transvestite. Grumblebink Flippedyflap. (I made that one up, I think)
very well, give her cake.
Eddie Izzard, homely? Not in my book!
Can't wait . . . going to see him in DC on May 2nd!!!

We are ready!
"Yes, no smoking in bars now, and soon there'll be, no drinking and no talking!"
Oh HELLL yes i'd vote for him.
We're gonna run out of cake at this rate…
so my choices are or death?
That picture is totally "Did I leave the gas on???".
HELL YEAH. He's brilliant, multilingual, knows a thousand times more about world politics than the average politician, and looks smashing with stubble or in a dress. How many people can say that?
Thank you for flying Church of England, cake or death?
"You're a plumber? What on eeeeaaaaarrrrrth is that?"
Couldn't help myself.
I am so impressed that you found the "Of course not! I'm a ******* squirrel!" picture to illustrate his greatness. Izzard for Emperor!
