Couple of news article I got tempted to comment on.

1) Although, I paid less for my present house than Sarah Palin paid for her campaign clothes (and still owe $40,000 on it), I do think the shopping was necessary given the circumstances. You cannot hob-knob with wives of the billionaire Republican supporters wearing dresses from Target. While Joe Six Pack does not know the difference, you can bet most of the Republican wives can spot and name a designer at 100 yards. So hey, give her a break, they live in a different world. Hey, Joe SP, you're welcome over here with all us regular folks. By the way, I hear that Joe the Plumber WAS a plant.

2) The backwards B on the face of the latest faker is a hoot!. While I have to admire the courage (unless she was drunk) to scratch her own face, I have to laugh that she must have done it in a mirror (so of course it came out backwards - well,she IS a Texas A&M Aggie[editor's note: nope, it is Blinn College in the same town]). [After looking more closely at the photograph she supplied, it looks like all makeup to me - I have seen black eyes and that one looks like mascara - if real, the eye would be bloodshot - well glad she did not hurt herself!] No, there are no Obama hoods out there assaulting and branding defenseless women. And I sincerely hope the McCain campaign is not so desperate as to put people up to such things!
