Battleshipping Barry

I passed the tee-vee room last night, on the way to get Mr. B. bathed, and saw "I still have the hat" Kerry speechifying, while Mom did her occupational duty (and her political preference) of watching the Dem dog-and-pony show. Fortunately, I had other fish to fry, so I didn’t have to raise my blood pressure the way Victor Davis Hanson apparently did. I did think to myself when I saw "Reporting for duty" Kerry that if he could be swiftboated in 2004, then, as some commenter on some blog I read put it, B. Hussein Obama, with significantly more controversial baggage, can be battleshipped. Oh, yeah.

UPDATE: This is truly an excellant beginning. McCain’s people are amazing at producing this sort of thing quickly. Hope they keep it up. Here’s another winner-in-the-making: It’s Barry’s terrorist buddy Bill Ayers’ anniversary.

No, We Won’t

Unlike Bob the Builder’s "Yes, We Can!" which is charmingly invigorating to children, Baby Barry’s "Vero Possumus" is vaguely creepy to this adult. It goes with his promise of unspecified "Change!", his warning on Friday that his opponents are racists, and his eagerness to court the world’s dictators. Now he’s put it on his egotistical redesign of the presidential seal. None of which would be especially alarming until you consider "who sent him," in the parlance of Chicago’s machine politics. California law professor Steve Diamond concludes that it may have been, quite literally, the old, Leftist revolutionary Weather Underground–a former leader of which, ex-terrorist Bill Ayers, BB-the-Great-Prevaricator has dismissed as a "guy who lives in my neighborhood" despite their long involvement.
