From politics (moderates who lean to the right) to Pogo (drools during poker stare) to rants (Whatcha expect from savvy, sassy sexagenarians?) to raves (Have you had your kudo today?) -- we never take ourselves too seriously.
We do, however, reserve the right to slaughter an occasional sacred cow. And in case we fail to mention it -- we will never forget....
Pimping Pandering, Double Standards and Feigned Outrage
So Shuster used a word from 'ho-dom to describe Chelsa Clinton pandering super-delegate votes for her mom.
So?
Was Chelsa pimpin' pandering votes for her mom, or wasn't she?
It was OK for MSNBC's meanest mouth to use the same word in describing the President for sending General Patraus to talk about the Iraq surge with Congressmen and the media?
So what's the difference?
The difference is that the Clinton's can now cry "foul" that their 27-year-old daughter is being verbally assaulted by one from their own media support-base.
Forget double standards --- women voters will surely stand up for Hillary (sniff sniff) in outrage!!!
Oh, cry us a river, Hill 'n Bill.
If daughter Chelsa can't take the heat -- then stop pimpin' her!
On second thought: Consider Mitt's 5 sons ..... They openly campaigned for their dad.
Unlike Chelsa's pandering (ahem) for votes via telephone to super-delegates, the Romney sons proudly and publicly represented their dad's campaign.
Even in politics, there is a difference between pimping and promoting. It's the difference between "including" and "using" family members and friends.
Unless you're Hillary Clinton, of course.
Her Thighness is going to use and pander any and all sources to fulfill her quest for the most powerful office in the world.
