OMG. Did Joe Biden really say FDR talked about the depression on television in 1929 when he should have said he was on radio in 1933? Read all about it. Or don't. Because...
OMG. Did Holly Todd, college student from Texas, really tell Pittsburgh police that a great big Black man who was an Obama suppporter assaulted her, punched her in the back of the head, knocked her to the ground, told her “you are going to be a Barack supporter,” and kicked her while threatening “to teach her a lesson for being a McCain supporter." Did she really say that he then sat on her chest, pinned her hands down with his knees and scratched a backward letter “B” into her face with a dull knife? Um, why would anyone go to the trouble of scratching a letter backwards? But if you were a very sad case of a person, cutting the letter B into your own cheek in a mirror, wouldn't the letter B come out backwards? Read all about it.
Yes. Both of these things are true. Except one is not such a big deal. TV. Radio. 1929. 1933. That would be Biden's mistake. It was a dumb gaffe, but Biden knows what FDR did, said and stood for. The backwards-B-mugger thing is a horrible, sad, sick story. Holly Todd worked in New York for the College Republican National Committee before moving two weeks ago to Pennsylvania, where her duties included recruiting college students to the McCain-Palin campaign. "I don't know, McCain is down in the polls, maybe this is a boost to get him up a little bit," said Mark Billings. "I don't know, maybe she had some personal problems or something."
And tonight Sarah Palin showed up to campaign in my high school alma mater. Big crowd. Cheers. As far as I can tell, her talk was mostly about Joe Namath and Bill Ayers and wanting a president who spent 30-some years in the military. Thankfully we got a little more substance this week from another Vietnam vet, General Colin Powell.
