Karl made this excellent suggestion, that I consider “Annie Get Your Gun” for another duet between Baracky and Hillary, based on Baracky’s scoffing comments regarding Hillary’s “recollections” of hunting ducks in PA in her youth. Like Annie Oakley. With a six-shooter. Which, I have to say, is an extraordinarily sporting way of hunting ducks, especially if you do it over your shoulder while using a mirror and riding bareback, which we’ll likely soon find out was the case with Mrs. Clinton.
There is an obvious duet here, but the whole thing is so full of potential that I’m just going to throw out a link to the trailer, and let your imaginations dilate upon it.
Tangentially related: McCain on the MSM. Joe Tex comments.
you forgot one point, Dan.
That duck hunting was extremely dangerous because of the sniper fire.
There’s no business
Like O business…
This is very high concept.
McCain supports a shield law for fucktard journalists and condemns the NYT’s betrayal of our national security programs in the same talk. And yet as execrable as he is he’s much better than Baracky I guess. But only cause I trust him on Iraq. Sort of.
Clearly, Annie was frustrated by Bush/Clinton economic policies. I’ll bet she was anti-trade and didn’t like Negroes much either.
Well, that and there’s a 50/50 chance he won’t appoint the Son Of The Return Of Ruth Bader Ginsberg to the SCOTUS. And, he’s the only one what ain’t a lawyer.
The shield law was Plame. She was already blown by the Russians with Ames and then she proceeded to follow up on how. This told the Russians how. She was watched after Ames. She went bad. The five year law was an issue because they wanted something easy, but that’s what Plame did. If you research her, you’ll find all the answers as to what she did. She never went to jail for the five year law. That’s because it was designed as dead end. Of course, she killed a lot. She WAS a super double naught spy.
Hilly and Val are close friends.
Thanks, P. That one helps. Also he’s the candidate most likely to kick while in office. He should hype that more. It’s hugely attractive this cycle I think.
happy, that’s cruel.
Cruelly honest.
The CW is “people vote for the top of the ticket”. 2008?
Not so much.
I am going to send a campaign donation to McCain’s campaign. It will be a token amount, but I figure by sending it in after the zoo that will be the Dem convention winds down, the papers will be looking for all sorts of angles and hooks to hang their narrative on, so why not at least let them say “McCain is improving his fund raising in the wake of the immolation of Denver!”?
I’ll probably do much the same, really. Depending on if you can send McCain donations or not. I haven’t been following the bouncing ball on that very well.
I suspect George Soros will probably kick something in as well.
Half a loaf … you know I mean?
Hey, Dan.
If you are going to weave Joe Tex into your post, you MUST find a reason to link to “Who’ll Take The Lady With The Skinny Legs”. I’m assuming that the link won’t be about Hillary.
It is a true masterpiece. Hot! Hot! Hot!
Kinda like Megyn.
As we all know, Hillary would kill live game with lightning bolts from her arse.
Aya, and don’t you forget it.
But what she didn’t say, was that she was a hunter, or a good shot, or favored hunting, or favored teaching children to shoot. She says, some people still do that, not that she does it. She didn’t claim to have taught Chelsea.
It’s been a while and I’d need a quick refresher and I am a good shot (which she didn’t claim at all) and I could also say what she said about duck hunting (she’s been hunting is all she said and that it was ducks).
I’ve been duck hunting. I saw no ducks. But I’ve been duck hunting.
And Obama makes out like she was acting like she’s Annie Oakley? What it sounded like to me was pretty straight forward… I don’t do this any more but I at least shot a gun once when I was a kid because it was something my dad did and I went hunting, too.
As far as I’m concerned, if she had a license (if necessary) and a gun… she went hunting.
That’s not Annie Oakley at all. She made no claim of skill whatsoever.
No I DON’T like Hillary. Of course she’s making nice with the locals and it’s all a huge steaming pile of BS, but in the end… she understands what will appeal to the locals and what won’t and that’s more than Obama can say.
Of course she’s making nice with the locals and it’s all a huge steaming pile of BS
Which makes it a different sort of condescending, but not necessarily a better one.
I’m just sorry that this will all have to end eventually. I can’t remember a more entertaining election cycle.
Funny, I was sure they’d be from her fingertips.
(I don’t think the filmmakers got McCain’s look quite right, though.)
(Or his laugh, there at the end.)
