Is this REALLY how low political journalists can go? Crooks & Liars posts about MSNBC "pundit" Chris Matthews pratically fawning over Republican Fred Thompson based on how good he smells:
"Can you smell the English leather on this guy, the Aqua Velva, the sort of mature man's shaving cream, or whatever, you know, after he shaved? Do you smell that sort of -- a little bit of cigar smoke?"
Jesus Tittyfucking Christ! It sounds like Matthews is more interested in getting poked by Thompson's cigar (if you know what I mean) than whether or not the man has the slightest qualification to occupy the Oval Office (not that a lack of qualifications stopped the present occupant).
Just when you think the lapdogs of the press can sink no lower in their complete and utter servility to the Republican Party, they find even new ways to drag it down to an even lower level of absurdity. Should we really be basing our voting behavior on choice of aftershave or perfume?
Meanwhile, dear old blog-buddy Suzette (who seems to have rejoined the blogging world after a prolonged absence) reports that she stumbled into a Hillary Clinton campaign event while at a local Chinese restaurant. Among her observations of HRC: her ass is not as big as Suzette expected, but her feet are huge, and she does not stink. Given that Suzette is herself a rabid anti-Hillary Republican, that amounts to high praise as far as I can tell.
If we're down to worrying about how all these people SMELL, it's going to be a looooooooong campaign.
I can't help it - I'm a professionally trained observer. Count yourself lucky that I didn't regale you with a scale of difficulty for venipuncture or an assessment of her tissue turgor.

Shhh...don't let any pundits hear you, or the next thing you know FOX News will be doing a segment on "Are Democrats Adequately Turgid Or Do They Hate America??"
