The Comment Of The Year™ (for now, anyway) goes to a fellow named Chris Baker, who was commenting on this LA Slimes  blog entry about “whatever  could have possibly  happened to Our Savior™?  Sob!!!”
Mr. Baker writes thusly:
Seriously – what happened to Obama?
Nothing. Nothing that any mature, level-headed American didn’t see coming. Maybe the difference is that a bunch of sappy, pollyanna Americans grew up.
He came in as an overhyped, unqualified, under-accomplished, junior-light-weight-do-nothing-senator who is now a junior-light-weight-do-nothing-president. He did nothing in Illinois as a senator except vote “present” – he changed nothing but his address. Chicago is still a corrupt, bankrupt cesspool. He is all veneer, hype, smoke and mirrors – all hat and no cattle.
Face it – he was carefully packaged, propped up, paraded like a peacock on the shoulders of political interest groups and rode a wave of political correctness that was out of control into the Whitehouse. His vision to “fundamentally” change America is dead wrong and his cast of far left zealots, thugs and tax cheats are now learning that. After all his empty campaign promises and rhetoric – where are the rainbows and unicorns? Where are the spontaneous outbursts of Kumbaya?
The country has never been more divided. Never have prospects for our children been so bleak. Bad enough he’s a joke at home but he’s totally dismissed overseas as well. This liberal disease has been eating away at America for too long – the benefit of Obama is that he put that into hyper-drive and now the country is no in the throes of a massive backlash and we needed it.
This is it – America will either eradicate this far-left disease and rise again or we will let it destroy us like the cancer that it is.
Bravo, Mr. Baker.  Effing.  Bra.  Vo. 
Funny thing about Texas politics.  Give a candidate enough rope to hang themselves, they’ll usually oblige.
Up until yesterday, the GOP side of the Texas goober-natorial was shaping up to be a nice little menage a trois – the last polls I’d heard had Big Dickhead Perry at 49%, Kay Bailout Hutchinson at 27% and this nurse from Beeville named Debra Medina at 19%.  And the only reason Medina was closing on Kay Bailout was due to some incredible buzz, first from pseudo-conservative WBAP talk-show host Mark Davis, then from what I’ve been told are impressive performances in a couple of subsequent three-way debates between them all.
That all came to a rather abrupt end yesterday.  Dan Riehl had a report about a supposed Perry sockpuppet whispering that Medina was a 9/11 Twoofer on one of the Dullest Moaning Snooze  blogs.
Dec. 19: Perry has done a great job for veterans. Probably the most pro-veteran governor we have had in the modern era. Perry also IS a veteran, having served for more than half a dozen years.
Dec. 4: Rick Perry is awesome. Texas is the best state in America! WOOT!
Nov. 22: KBH is a liberal RINO. Perry needs to point that out early and often.
Nov. 8: Rick Perry is doing a heck of a job standing up to the liberals and keeping Texas the most prosperous state in the nation.
(For the time being, we’ll ignore the Moaning Snooze’s  whining about supposed TOS violations.  Frankly, I don’t give a shit about that either way.)
Anyway…
Glenn Beck had an opportunity to interview Ms. Medina about it, give the candidate a chance to “clear her name”, if you will, and – well – funny how that noose slipped around ol’ Deb’s neck as if it were a strand of pearls, y’know?
Okay, so it’s bad enough when you plant one foot  in a pile of dogshit.  (I gots me two puppies.  Trust me on this.)
What makes it worse  is when you go to “clarify” what you said earlier…and then go and plant the other  foot in the same damned pile…
(UPDATE:  I’m finding out only now that those of you who are idiots and run IE may not be able to see this.  Here’s the link for you guys.)
Oops.
Buh-bye, Debra.  Thanks for playing.  Johnny Olson Rod Roddy Whatever your name is behind that mic…do we have any parting gifts for our nice contestant?
