Their Better Halves

I must admit that I am a bit of a political junkie.

I stayed up late last night to watch the Rhode Island, Vermont, Texas and Ohio primaries, and I was very happy with the results.

I was a firm supporter of John Edwards, and I must also admit that I have spoken out against Hillary's electability in the past.

However, between the two remaining Democratic candidates, I am now backing and voting for Hillary Clinton.

Never underestimate the intelligence of the American Voter.



-Some Americans choose their candidate for their positions on the issues.

-Others vote for the candidate they think is the most able to lead this country.

-And others will cast their vote based on the past voting record of the candidates themselves.

Frankly, I think that is totally silly.

The obvious deciding factor should be the spouse of the candidate.

Let's take a look ... shall we?


WE CAN START WITH THE REPUBLICANS

First there is Janet Huckabee.



*She certainly is a solid woman.

*As a right winger, you are going to love her ability to handle a gun.

*It doesn't stop there. She also knows how to rock the big stuff.


Then there is Cindy McCain.



*There is no denying that she is a very beautiful and classy lady.

*Bonus: She stands by her man ... despite rumors that John might have been screwing lobbyist Vicki Iseman.





NOW FOR THE DEMOCRATS

First there is Michelle Obama.



*I don't know about you guys, but this woman really scares me.
(I think she scares Barack too)

*I seriously think she could kick Janet Huckabee's ass.
(And that says a lot)


This leaves me with one very obvious choice.


SIR BILL



*I need eight more years of Bill in the White House.

Apple of my eye

I was going to write something interesting about the new book by the former White House press secretary Scott McClellan.

However, I am fairly sure that this piece of garbage and this 250 pound waste of human flesh are once again going to walk away from this new scandal scott free.

Pun certainly intended.

I also thought that since tomorrow is Thanksgiving, I should instead be writing about fun, family and food.

So here it goes.

Tonight, on the way home from the gym, I bought a ripe red apple.



As I cleaned it off with a small napkin, I looked at the stem and it reminded of that game that we all used to play when we were kids.

You twist the stem as you recite the alphabet. When the stem finally breaks, you have the first letter of the person you are going to marry.

Just then, it suddenly dawned on me how unfair this game was to the Yolandas of the world.

"A moment I've been dreading. George [Bush] brought his ne're-do-well

son around this morning and asked me to find the kid a job. Not the

political one who lives in Florida. The one who hangs around here all

the time looking shiftless. This so-called kid is already almost 40 and

HAS NEVER HAD A REAL JOB. Maybe I'll call Kinsley over at The New

Republic and see if they'll hire him as a contributing editor or

something. That looks like easy work"

Woulda Coulda Shoulda

The White House is trying to calm the resentment of some Republicans who say the party might have fared better on Election Day if President Bush had not waited until after the vote to call for the resignation of Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld.

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich publicly suggested that if George Bush had replaced Don Rumsfeld two weeks before the mid term elections, voters might not have been as angry about the unpopular Iraq war.




I find it funny that he looks to Rumsfeld and the Iraq War as the central October surprise, but still has this to say about the Foley scandal.

Remember Newt ... “The only thing that can end your career in politics is being caught with a dead girl … or a live boy.” For a political party that is based on "family values" and vehemently condemns homosexuality, you guys get caught with a lot of boys.

And Newt ... In the spirit of political impartiality, I have found you this video (Below) that should come in handy. It will help you and Dennis Hassert identify the immoral members of your own party long before they become a political liability.




I, for one, like being a Clinton Democrat. At least when we mess with the interns, you can be damn sure they are of the opposite sex.
