Which makes me wonder. As a serious DFH when I first heard the term “Turdblossom” (beside thinking what an asshole Bush is for giving someone that nickname) I immediately thought “Mushrooms”.

Now is frat-boy GW totally ignorant of this connotation (not impossible, coke heads usually don’t like ’shrooms), does Karl Rove just look like a mushroom (well…), or is he really capable of inducing life changing experiences (yes, but more like a very bad trip)?
Oh well, one of those mysteries I kinda hope is never solved…

“Turdblossom”
What an asshole (Bush and Rove).

As an immigrant, I’m not saying I came to the United States purely to meet chicks like that, but it was certainly high on my list of priorities.

Mark Steyn has a characteristically witty post this morning on Sarah Palin:

Governor Palin is not merely, as Jay describes her, “all-American”, but hyper-American. What other country in the developed world produces beauty queens who hunt caribou and serve up a terrific moose stew? As an immigrant, I’m not saying I came to the United States purely to meet chicks like that, but it was certainly high on my list of priorities. And for the gun-totin’ Miss Wasilla then to go on to become Governor while having five kids makes it an even more uniquely American story. Next to her resume, a guy who’s done nothing but serve in the phony-baloney job of “community organizer” and write multiple autobiographies looks like just another creepily self-absorbed lifelong member of the full-time political class that infests every advanced democracy.

But now they have the Palin tar baby on their back with a very steep hill to climb.

Er, can we get some dressing on that metaphor salad?
