Dick Cheney would call in reinforcements, and those people would be pummeled by snowballs from the entire 10th Mountain Division…

Ronald Reagen would have built a massive infrastructure of snowball production, and those of the evil snowball empire would have bankrupt themselves trying to keep up with Americas production of the Massive Frozen Hydrogen/Oxygen Bomb.

Kennedy would have sent in “Advisors”.

Nixon would have attempted to cover up the incident by editing the existing tape.

Jimmy Carter would have lamented about how evil WE must be because they are throwing snowballs at us… and advocated that the Snowman Liberation Organization (SLO) be given a homeland in someone elses country… after all, snowmen HAVE a RIGHT to return…

Fred’s friends and family had to convince him he should throw the snowball.

That part of the video was edited out for the sake of brevity.
As for being staged… the two were waiting to throw a snowball at someone who was NOT Fred because he threw one at them earlier… I can see the elaborate planning session that went down for this one. “Ok, you throw a snowball at bob… and then bob will wait for you and throw one back… so we can show Fred responding decisively and leak the video on the net. Boy that’ll sure turn things around!” Gosh, you’d think he was planting questions by fake “undecided voters” in debates or campaign stops or something…

2) Joe Biden would have given such a long preamble on the history of snowballs that the snow would have melted before any return volleys could be launched, and/or would have copied someone else’s method of snowball making while taking credit for it.

Hillary can’t make a snow ball…snow instantly turns to steam in her hands…

YES! and you know what would happen if she got any water on her.

Just dreaming.

This was a staged event by people known by the campaign. I didn’t post that hours ago because we were having such fun. But since you brought up the question……

That Fred moves like a cat!

He’s pretty spry for an old dude…

Why are people ambushing presidential candidates with thrown objects? Don’t we have, y’know, security type folks to pre-tase bros like that? Or are snowballs OK?

I’m thinking I would be tased for life if I threw something at the POTUS.

Hillary IS a snowball.

Obama would try to achieve reconciliation with the hurlers and take the second one in the face, after which he would sue the security people.

Gravel and Keyes would complain bitterly that no one was throwing snowballs at THEM!

Chuck Norris would consider stepping between Huck and the snowball, or possibly simply causing the snowball to vaporize via withering gaze, but would instead decide to sue a penguin.

Mitt would be hounded by video clips of Massachusetts debates where he vowed to protect the rights of snowflakes.

Edwards would have sued the original thrower and during the trial would channel the snowball’s anguished scream as it disintegrated.

Hillary would have returned the shot by throwing a rock, to show she is not weak, and then run to Bill crying for help.

Paul wouldn’t have done anything, but a few mysterious Paulnuts would start throwing snowballs from a hidden location.

The rest of the liberals are demanding Fred!’s impeachment as a candidate. Clearly the snowball attack was not aimed at him. Yet he chose to act preemtively and fire back before it was clear that the “terrorists” were going to attack him. Cowboy snowballing indeed!
