Senator John Forbes Kerry: "Like a Caged Hamster"

Well, Kaus poked good sarcastic fun at that embarassing little fart of a New York Times article on the "restless, relentless" John Kerry, but it seems he did miss the money quote:

Like a caged hamster, Senator John Kerry is restless on the road.

I think we can all agree that's what we're all looking for in a Commander in Chief. When our nation's security is on the line, we're all looking for someone who smells of wood-chips and rodent-urine.

Thanks to Andunie, who also provides a compilation of nicknames for John Kerry. He seems to have missed Senator Splunge and The Boston Fog Machine, however.

Why don't we just get him a big plastic ball, stuff him in there, and let him roll his ass across the floor?

It'd be far more entertaining to see.

Actually, your Splunge! is at #2. I just forgot the honorific.

But yeah, I did miss The Boston Fog Machine.

I have it on good authority that caged hamsters make good executive decision makers.

As I wrote on another thread, the quote that jumped out at me from this asinine piece of shit article in the NYT was that the Caged Hamster, who, by the way, served in Vietnam, spends his time on the campaign jet strumming a guitar and is just now "learning a new (old) song, 'This Land is Your Land.'"

Doesn't this strike anyone as odd? How can anyone not know this song?

I hear that JFKerry was in bands in his college days playing bass and guitar. He's just now figuring out the three chords and a line or two to a song that's been around for 75 years? Can this really be true or is this dipwad reporter expecting us to believe this attempt at limning out Kerry as "just-a-regular-guy-with-a-soft-spot-for-sentimental-patriotic-chestnuts?"

The entire article is unbelievable bullshit; pablum served up to the credulous.

Unintentional comic gold.

INVESTIGATIVE ASSIGNMENT:

Someone needs to find out how Jodi Wilgoren's silly, yet badly written article got published in the NYT.

She has to be related to the boss or one of his pals or something.

BIG NEWS UPDATE NOT FIRED

From her lawyer

"The irresponsible reports that have been published stating that Maria Bartiromo was fired or is no longer an employee of Fox are absolutely and unequivocally false," Freedman said Friday. "Make no mistake, we have the receipts and witnesses and they will come out whether through the courthouse or otherwise."

He added: "Those reporting her firing or the incredulous facts supporting that fiction have exhibited a complete and utter reckless disregard for the truth."

from anon2020
So what, she quit?
Megyn Kelly (accursed be her name) used to say all the time that Fox has a top female PR person who is a nasty pitbull and leaks nasty claims about anyone Fox is at war with, including those who have left the network. So I guess maybe she technically resigned? I don't know.
NEW: @FoxNews has obtained Lindsay Clancy defense attorney Kevin Reddington's appeal filing to the MA Supreme Court, which includes Reddington accusing the lone holdout juror of being "biased" against those with "debilitating mental illness", which he says is a protected category.

Holiday Break: I've had a rough couple of weeks -- the shoulder is healing now and I'm finally getting decent sleep -- and I've decided to take a long weekend.
I'm taking Friday off, and then Monday off, too.
I have Open Threads for both days and I will post if big news breaks, but if it doesn't -- and it probably won't, news is slow before a holiday weekend -- I'm going to take a four day weekend.

1977 interview shows that Barbara Walters has always been a seaward and Dolly Parton always had "country class"
Walters actually asks Dolly Parton if she knows that people think she's a joke. This because Walters can't get over the fact that a show-woman has 1, big breasts, and 2, dresses a bit outrageously because, get this, she's an entertainer. A stage performer. You know, someone people pay money to see live and expect them to put on a show.
She never would attack Liberace for wearing glitter-tuxedos. But she's mad that Dolly Parton makes Barbara Walters look bad through association (by being a woman). Babs, you wish people associated the two of you. Believe me, we can tell the difference.
