It's been a while since I fucked around with Rob over at Say Anything (for a while, it was he and I talking about Cindy Sheehan: He insisting that Cindy Sheehan was not a story and I pointing out the 20-odd consecutive days he discussed this non-story on his blog).
Back then, it was all fun and games for me. I was just having a good time with a gasbag who rarely makes salient points. Today, however, he just pissed me off:
Edwards Campaign Continues to Deny That Cancer Announcement Was a Publicity Stunt
Meanwhile donations to the Edwards campaign since the announcement six days ago are about 50% of what the campaign took in during the previous three months.
Next week the Edwards family dog Scrappy gets put to sleep and one of the kids gets lost on the estate triggering an Amber Alert. Just to, you know, keep the momentum going.
Just... I mean... Just deplorable. Incidentally, I'm sure that Karl Rove also instructed Tony Snow to get cancer for the sole purpose of slowing the Edwards campaign's roll. Come on... I mean, this is just beyond the pale.
UPDATE: Rob responds in the comments: "I'm glad to hear you're pissed. I think of you simmering over her eon this blog that apparently nobody reads and I smile. Thanks for giving me a warm fuzzy."
As if we needed more evidence that we aren't exactly dealing with the best humanity has to offer.
I'm glad to hear you're pissed. I think of you simmering over her eon this blog that apparently nobody reads and I smile.
Thanks for giving me a warm fuzzy.
