DocJay: Nope just a crawlspace with Fuller brush salesman and Jehovah's Witnesses. · 2 hours ago
I haven't heard the name "Fuller Brush" in years! Fine old Hartford company (that left 50 years ago - ugh). Does anyone remember the Red Skelton movie of that name?
Mollie Hemingway, Ed.: I'm actually not a fan of voter identification laws, but many on the right are. Eric Holder has condemned efforts to strengthen voter identification laws. So that makes this situation, as described by John Fund, embarrassing:
Sorry, Mollie. It's impossible for Eric Holder to be embarrassed.
The fact that the man, as our Attorney General, is an embarrassment beyond measure is completely lost on him...and most Americans.
Duane Oyen: Comeelection time? This should be the #1 PR thrust of every Republicanright now, and for the next 6 months.
Why doesn't our side ever have good talking points and message discipline? Instead we start fighting the sex wars over Fluke.
We are our own worst enemies. · 2 hours ago
Amen, Duane. Not to be redundant, but the GOP still remains the Stupid Party™. I shake my head repeatedly at the way the Left still controls the message or narrative as Andrew [pbuh] would say. We have to find a way to get and maintain control. To break through with logic and facts. And Troy, as much as I understand what you're saying, it has to be said now, not just after Labor Day. After Labor Day it will simply be too late in my humble opinion.
Nick Stuart: GOP = Stupid Party is why they let the MSM control the debates. · 1 hour ago
I agree completely, Nick, and have been saying this for a long time. No one has ever underestimated the stupidity of the GOP to continue to shoot itself in its collective feet.
Paul A. Rahe: Actually, Mollie, I would prefer David Axelrod. At least, he would not pretend that he is a journalist. · 19 minutes ago
Sure he would, after all, George Stephanopoulos does it all the time. · 57 minutes ago
Perfect response.
We're stuck with these folks because the smart guys knew better to stay out. (Where have you gone, Mitch Daniels, a nation turns its lonely eyes to you...)
Oh, geez, GA, tough act to follow there buddy. Feelings of inadequacy are welling up within.
And Pseud...thanks so much for sharing. Ugh! Reminds me of Bill Wyman and his bride. Wasn't she something like 16 at the time he married her? Well, my wife and I are hitting 30 years this year so I must be doing something right even if I don't have "our song."
They haven't earned the nickname "The Stupid Party" for nothing. It takes real genius to lose the election months out to the worst president in a generation (if not ever) by the Circular Firing Squad™.
Yeti - can you get with James to work on the balance between his voice and Eddie's? Listening on my way to work this morning, James' voice was much lower (in volume) than Eddie's. I had to really crank up the volume to hear him. Eddie, then, would come booming in.
Am I the only person who was bothered by this? Not my intention to be a crank.

Thanks for the memory.
