Catch up Part 2
From 11/11: Looking back on the night Rick Perry set fire to himself, he might have had a better debate if a few women had charged him with sexual harassment. Perry drew a blank trying to remember which government agencies he would shut down as president. We have all been there. I usually forget HUD. A senior moment is one thing; Perry is having a senior campaign. If Perry can't remember the departments he would shut down, how can he remember the ones he would keep open?
From 11/14: How many officials at Penn State should wind up in the state pen? How can the citizens of State College, PA be critical of Joe Paterno when they all have little "St. Joseph" statues of him on their dashboards?
From 11/15: Newt Gingrich acts like he thinks he is the smartest person in the room. The sad thing is he is frequently right.
From 11/16: In Bill O'Reilly's new book about Abraham Lincoln, he has Abe working in the Oval Office. Never mind that the Oval Office did not exist until 43 years after Lincoln's death. I don't mean to be all nit-picky, but Lincoln was not assassinated while watching a movie at Ford's Theatre. It was the musical "Cats."
From 11/18: Mr. Cain, what would you have done regarding Libya? "As a businessman, i would lay all the facts on the table along with my secretary. I would do exactly what i am doing now - fidget in my seat, fondle my tie and move the water bottle back and forth across the table." So there you have it -- Fidget, Fondle and Move, a brilliant strategy for the times in which we live.
