Quote of the day
From John McCain:
“Hillary tried to get a million dollars for the Woodstock museum. I understand it was a major cultural and pharmaceutical event. I couldn’t attend. I was tied up at the time.”
While I don’t like McCain at all, I’ve got to give him credit for this quote. Nice one, sir!
Biden: Iowa schools better than DC schools due to fewer blacks
When he’s not waxing eloquent about the clean, bright, articulate Negro in the race or about the prevelance of Indians at 7-11 stores, he’s busy explaining how Iowan kids do better in schools than those in the nation’s capital. From CNN’s blog:
In what the Washington Post is describing as a “stumble,” Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden said in an interview with the paper Wednesday that Washington’s high minority population is one of the reasons for the city’s education problems.
Explaining why schools in Iowa are performing better than those in Washington, D.C., Biden told the Post, “There’s less than one percent of the population of Iowa that is African American. There is probably less than four of five percent that are minorities. What is in Washington? So look, it goes back to what you start off with, what you’re dealing with.”
Exit question (and yes, I know you see this one coming): What would the level of outrage been had, say, Mitt Romney or Rudy Giuliani or “Teh Fred” said the same thing?
Ron Paul accepts big #ss donation from Truther head honcho
For those of you who don’t know, Truthers (or, as we normal Americans derisively call them, “Troofers”) are the barking moonbats who think that Bush engineered 9/11 for (insert paranoid asshat reason here). The head of the Troofer movement is certifiable nutbar Alex Jones, who actually has a radio show. (Sidebar: if he really thinks the government’s out to shut him up from “exposing the truth about 9/11″, how does he explain the fact that they allow him to have a radio show?)
Republican presidential candidate and Bircheresque crank Ron Paul routinely goes on Jones’ radio show for some mutual man-love. Now, we find out that the 9/11 Nutter donated $2,300 to Paul’s campaign. But hey, just because Paul lowers himself into the gutter with Jones, and just because Jones would donate $2,300 to Paul, and just because Paul won’t condemn the Troofer “movement” like Bubba did, does not mean that Paul is a Troofer, m’kay? I mean, I’m sure Jones would gladly plunk down $2,300 to any other politician who subscribes to the heresy that 9/11 was committed by jihadist camelhumpers and not Bushrummy McHitlerburton! For those of you on the left, the prior sentence was sarcasm.
As Ace superbly states it:
I don’t completely buy that a candidate isn’t responsible for his supporters. If a campaign attracts so many malcontents, racists, anti-semites, paranoids, America-haters, conspiracy-mongers, and political pornographers, well, I assume there’s a reason for this grand crossing-the-streams of weirdness.
