Today Rachel Maddow tweeted something about “Feel the Huntsmentum!” and it left me wondering: If Huntsman only had one moment to say anything, surely that moment is now. What would that something be? What should that something be?
“Don’t anybody move! I’ve lost my contact lens!” Continue reading
It seems Mitt Romney is suffering from a case of what I call ‘Not Christian Enough’. At the recent Values Voters Summit, Baptist minister Robert Jeffress took a swipe at Mr. Mittens calling him:

I’ve been terribly busy this week but after this Thursday the 22nd I should be able to package up something fresh, antibiotic free and humanely raised in the way of CT articles. Until then I’ll leave you with this image of Presidential Hopeful Michele Bachmann congressing with constituents from within the cooler. I will say it’s very clear that Marcus didn’t choose this outfit for her.
You know the rules for Open Caption, don’t you? There aren’t any! I like my Open Caption like a GOP Candidate: verbose, ridiculous and crazy. Comment.

“That’s a theory that is out there — and it’s got some gaps in it. In Texas we teach both Creationism and Evolution. Because I figure you’re smart enough to figure out which one is right.” [ USA Today ]
This is precisely why we have so many 10 year-old teachers down here in Texas. They’re just great at figuring things out. Here’s something Rick Perry should be trying to figure out: How’s he going to get elected with less than 40% of the Latino vote?
