What do ya do when you’re nearly omnipotent?
When you hold the most power on the globe and you and your team are so short of ideas that, essentially, you’ve got nothing, how do you handle that?
Create strawmen and distractions that distort and polarize. And act like somebody else did something so horrible that you can act all shocked and stuff.
Oh. My. God. Can you imagine? She said THAT??!!!!?? Isn’t she terrible to women?
This is the Much Ado About Nothing ploy. They’re not shocked when calmly torturing people, shredding the Constitution or discussing fresh wars and deadly WMDs they can use. But they’re shocked that Barbara Boxer dared suggest that Rice had no kids she could lose in combat.
Yeah, right. {eyeroll}
At 32% in the polls, the president’s gophers are desperate to make somebody else the bad guy. But it only makes a weak team look completely lame.
I wonder if they can drag this one out for 2 months, like the failed assault on AP.

Forget Boxer. George is beginning to light fires all over the place. Somalia, Iran, you ain’t seen nothing yet. By the time the whole of the Middle East is alight, no one will care about B.Boxer, or Iraq, or Palestine…
Having set the world alight and alienated the whole of the Muslim World, who will save us? Go on, who? Why superham george of course! He of the small brain and the large ambition.
If he’s not taken out of the equation quickly, the world will go up in smoke! Get with it, Kev!
