Bipartisan Bully Boys
Obama charged up the San Juan Hill of class warfare with an hour long stemwinder in Kansas yesterday. Meanwhile, Bull Moose Gingrich came out to Glenn Beck as a Teddy Roosevelt Republican.
Broadway Tim
I stumbled across this by Heather Wilhelm. She says, “It’s a funny thing these days; you say old-fashioned things, you get called a provocateur.”

Bye Bye, Barney
We won’t have Barney Frank to kick around any more and vice versa – here’s Dana Milbank on Barney the Bully.
This was inspired by one of my favorite Don Wright cartoons. Unfortunately I can’t seem to find a link to it. The cartoon featured a Vietnamese family standing in a landscape of bomb craters waving thanks to American jets as they flew away at the end of the war.
I’ve always considered Barney Frank just as much a friend to the poor as we were to the Vietnamese.
