politi-couture for the urbane sophisticate
Why not glorify a huge government takeover with vulgar language and mass commercialism? The DNC is proud to present the “Health Reform is a BFD” t-shirt, commemorating idiot savant Joe Biden’s off-the-record-but-actually-miked comment that health care is a “big f*cking deal.” Nothing like a little defiance to pass off yet another vice presidential gaffe in the Obama Administration.
Kay Burley, who is apparently a bobble head for Sky News in the UK, made a rather embarrassing remark on air after Joe Biden appeared with his Ash Wednesday cross on his forehead. The clueless Brit quipped that Biden seemed to have a large bruise. When informed of her error, Burley replied, “I’ve said three Hail Marys; everything is going to be fine.”
Burley also spoke sensitively on September 11th: “If you’re just joining us, the entire eastern seaboard of the United States has been decimated by a terrorist attack.”
She should audition for CNN. I hear they aren’t doing too well.
The White House is supposed to be the most secure place on Earth, so why were Tareq and Michaele Salahi, “stars” of the Real Housewives of DC (to be aired next year), able to crash Obama’s invitation-only dinner honoring the Prime Minister of India?
The celebuwannabes, who are rumored to be worth a combined fortune of approximately ten dollars, did some self-promoting on their Facebook, which is likely to get them, as well as the secret security guys who allowed these famemongers into the White House, in some serious hot water.
The couple wrote on their Facebook:
“I was honored to be invited to attend the First State Dinner hosted by President Obama & [sic] the First Lady to honor India,” says Michaele Salahi on her Facebook page. “In June 2010, the America’s Polo Cup will be between INDIA & the UNITED STATES [sic].”
Still no word on if the Bravo cameramen were able to make it through the “strict security” to get the best shots. Now if only Obama could have several takes before being shown on national television. But hey, he’s a bit of a White House crasher himself, showing up without the necessary documents to gain access to the Oval Office.
In a renegade move last night that perhaps raised a few eyebrows, Joe Wilson (R-South Carolina) interrupted President Obama’s pontificating about how he wants to insure every American, which he claims will not include illegal aliens that are already straining our resources and basically enjoying a free ride on the taxpayer’s dollar.
Biden, who we think was annoyed but we can’t tell since his eyebrows are plastered in a scared position (maybe he’s continually visualizing his approval rating?) told ever-neutral ABCNews on Good Morning America that he is “embarrassed for the chamber and a Congress I love.”
Rep. Wilson’s comment has allegedly annoyed both Democrats and Republicans, but I bet a few members of the GOP are kicking themselves for conjuring up a way to stop the Obama LoveFest 2K9 and worshippers sitting in rapt attention listening to the teleprompter President talk about undoing many foundational American liberties. Generally I strive to maintain proper decorum, but Wilson’s comment was a barometer for the over 50% plurality of Americans that disagree with Obama’s healthcare plan—isn’t that what Wilson was elected to do, represent the people?
This is not the first unorthodox approach to politics that a SC officeholder has used. Argentinaphile Mark Sanford chose not to accept any stimulus money, making a strong statement against the overtaxing and socialist approach the Obama administration has taken to further tanking the economy.
