Hurry, Sundown!

The political process in this country is governed by "low information signals," i.e., trivia. The Hillster throws down shots of Canadian whiskey, The Hopester shoots hoops with an 8th-grader on an Indiana playground, and The Geezer is going to deliver his "Straight Talk" message at Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, NC. The Geezer wants to be at Ground Zero (NC) to take advantage of the media presence there. The most ridiculous claim of the past week was James Carville's claim that if The Hillster gave The Hopester one of her cojones, they'd both have two. The Clintonista court jester is an expert on female cojones. James Carville very likely married Dumbo hatchetwoman Mary Matalin because she had bigger cojones than The Hillster. In the meantime, the Republic is going to Hell in a handbasket; the price of oil just clocked in at $120/bbl. If this is (fair & balanced) fiddle-faddle, so be it.
