Leave Barack Alone! Democrats play the victim.
  • A telling video clip of Sen. Barbara Boxer (D., Calif.) on MSNBC’s “Hardball” has been making the rounds:
     Quote:
    So all of this is a diversion by the people who want to, frankly, hurt President Obama. You’ve heard the Republican senator Jim DeMint say it: Let’s make this “Obama’s Waterloo, let’s break him. That’s what this is about....


    It reminds us of those hilarious “Leave Britney alone!” videos that were the rage on YouTube a couple of years back. How exactly does Boxer expect this to persuade anyone to support the legislation? Just imagine the thought process: I don’t want higher taxes and government rationing of medical care. But doggone it, I’m for it anyway, because I don’t want to hurt the president!


Goddam Wall Street Journal stole MY joke.

The editorial goes on to say:
  • Boxer is not alone in this...The Democratic National Committee has an ad out that strikes a similar note:
     Quote:
    Narrator: The right-wing extremist Republican base is back.

    Crackpot at town meeting: He is not an American citizen!

    The ad does not identify the congressman whose town meeting was disrupted by the birther crackpot. It was Rep. Michael Castle of Delaware, a Republican. So the DNC expects us to believe that the RNC has “called out the mob” against its own members!


Brilliant, Zick. Just brilliant.
