put a sock in it

I don’t even want to dignify this “controversy” with a post, but since the radio and TV “news” won’t leave it alone (of course they won’t—John Kerry is a celebrity, the war in Iraq is an issue—why do we even bother to call them “news divisions” anymore?), let me just quote Keith Olbermann on this one:

[The White House is] either too stupid to realize John Kerry referred to President Bush and not the troops, or it‘s too sharp not to try to turn it into more false-flag waving.

The bumper sticker:

GEORGE BUSH: TOO STUPID TO KNOW
WHEN HE’S BEING CALLED STUPID.

As for Senator Kerry—don’t quit your day job. No, seriously, dude. Senator from Massachusetts is looking great for you.


(Plus, I had to post something just to use that picture!)
