Big Pimpin' Style

So let me get this straight ...

When Romney's 5 boys campaign for him, and when Cheney's, Bush's, and McCain's daughters stump for their dads, it's great--good patriot, civic duty.

But when Clinton's daughter Chelsea campaigns for her mom, she's pimping?!

I'm glad NBC suspended Shuster. What a jerk.

Great observation, and well said.

If there were such a thing as the Shirley Chisholm award for gender sensitivity and promotion of equal rights, and if I could confer it-- I would give one to you, Ulysses!

The comment on Chelsea was clumsily partisan, particularly when considered side by side with Mitt Romney's comments that his sons were not in the military, but fulfilling their civic duty by working on his presidential campaign.

Here's the great patriot Romney, speaking on sacrifice in August of 2007--

"I had to laugh at what I saw Barack Obama do. I mean, in one week he went from saying he's going to sit down for tea, with our enemies, but then he's going to bomb our allies. I mean, he's gone from Jane Fonda to Dr. Strangelove in one week. We have families who made a huge surge of sacrifice to support this surge. And it's time, in my view, for the people of America to show a surge of support, including our leaders in Washington, for these families and for the troops."

And what a relief that Romney the amateur orator is officially out of the race, or at least in self-imposed suspension. I just don't know if I could bear another four years of this type of excruciating gibberish from our President.
