Quote Of The Day

Comes from Robert at Lawyers, Guns and Money:
The British decision to defend the Falklands must rank somewhere between the defensive line of the 1985 Chicago Bears and the rise of Wham! in factors contributing to the collapse of Soviet power.
Meanwhile, LGM also takes a gander at that iconic and/or ironic photo of John “Hey, I Wear Body Armor When I Shop For Sansabelt Slacks At Dad ‘N’ Lad!” McCain sauntering through an Iraqi marketplace, marveling at how safe it is, except for the slight danger that he might become hoarse from shouting over the sound of hovering Blackhawk helicopters and Apache gunships:

Scott concludes: A red rubber nose would really complete this outfit.

But I dunno…Kinda seems like gilding the lily.

Perfect. Although maybe you could’ve inserted his/Krusty’s head in his flat, cowardly ass to be just a wee tad more descriptive.
Other than that, loved it.
They ought to have put McCain in a straightjacket, not a vest. Or perhaps Alzhiemers has claimed him for its own. (PS: The original quote from Shakespeare is “Painting the Lily”
After getting back to the US and seeing how much money Mitt Romney raised, maybe McCain’s now wishing he’d visited a different “Green Zone”? If he seriously thinks he can win by riding the coattails of a lame duck President with a 29% approval rating, Putin must have slipped something into his drink in Munich back in February.
Consumed with survival as I have been as of late and refusing the din of television, I am a bit out of touch with politics right now. And after a morning’s read of the local rag and gander at a blog here and there I always conclude that they (republicans) couldn’t get dumber, then I’m shown otherwise. Oh I fear for the populace that eats this shit up and see every more clearly how easily tyrannies actually do flourish.
I wonder if McCain actually went to Jane Fonda’s house to find out how to properly piss upon the corpses of the servicemen and women who have been sacrificed to this hegemony clusterfuck, or if he just decided to wing it on his own…
And yes, if not Alzheimer’s, then he’s definitely in perfect condition for a stroke or several dozen TIAs. Maybe the “jaw cancer” chemo finally ate through his sinus cavities and gnawed away at McFonda’s brain.

¿Who?
Oh, joo must mean ¡The Frog-Faced Stranger Who Will Lead Us To The Magic Kingdom!
so.
Now if we could only clone about 10,000 John McCains and spread them out through Iraq…all would be well.
