On this day:

The Johns Are Back!

Categories: Humor, Political

Johns Kerry and Edwards decided to make the best of a bad situation, that being Hurricane Katrina and all the New Orleans destroying she did, and got in some early campaigning for their 2008 Presidential bid by doing some good old fashioned Bush bashing. I recently did a bit of that myself and it's great fun so it's easy to see how the Johns fell into that trap. You can read the details here.

My favorite part is right here:

Edwards, the 2004 vice presidential candidate, said the hurricane was a sober reminder that widespread poverty exists throughout the nation. He said it will persist if the poor are concentrated in specific neighborhoods far from jobs.

"If the Great Depression brought forth Hoovervilles, these trailer towns may someday be known as Bushvilles," Edwards told an audience at the Center for American Progress, a liberal think tank in Washington.

Oooh! Burn! That John Edwards, he's a clever bastard, he is. I've gotta wonder if he came up with that on the fly or if it came to him the night before. I mean, damn, Bushvilles? The man is slick, I'll tell you what.

But that's not the best part. Note the part that says "a liberal think tank." That's an oxymoron if I ever heard one. Liberals thinking. That's great. I was pretty certain they replaced their brains with ginormous bleeding hearts.

Here's hoping the Johns run again. I'd love to see them lose a second time. The only person I'd rather see run before them is Hillary "Rodman" Clinton (I wonder if she's related to Dennis Rodman?). See, she could testify at her future impeachment hearing that she "did not have sexual relations with that man, Mr. Clinton." She'd be telling the truth right there and that would be the first time in history a Democrat has done that.
