Tweedle-dee Dum, He'll Stab You Where You Stand


Joe the Plumber? Some Republican asshole who formerly voted for the Natural Law Party and lived in both Arizona and Alaska? Give me a break. I smelled a rat as soon as the words "Joe the Plumber" came out of McCain's mouth in the final presidential debate of the 2008 cycle on Wednesday night. At first I thought maybe Joe Lieberman was going to pop out of a cake and sing "Happy Birthday, Mr. President," but no, it was just another con from the usual bag of Republican dirty tricks puked out since the days of Dick Nixon and Spiro Agnew . . . only it ain't gonna work this time.

My fellow voting Americans, do help get rid of these feckless Republican clowns on election day. Give the Democrats enough of a whopping margin to save the country, just like in the days of FDR. And if that doesn't work, let's try something else, eh?

Today's Rune: Joy.

Remember FDR's obstacles were a adversarial SCOTUS and business. Time to change the power options of both as well as the administration.

AS soon as Joe The Plumber came up you knew the debate had slipped sideways into bizzarro world.

"Sam the unlicensed contractor" just didn't have the same ring to it.

But "Joe the Plumber" has become one of our debate drinking game cues!
