Absent Again

Sorry that I have been gone most of today folks. I am in sunny Arizona this week, doing some final book-related research to fill in the last remaining gaps. You know Arizona, where sunny means hot enough to melt Mary Matalin's face. Like 110 degree hot (I josh the Arizonans of course, it is actually quite beautiful out here).

In any case, for me, two quotes and a flip-flop I came across today summed up the Republican presidential field quite perfectly:

“I’ve learned one thing in listening to all the debates and reading about all these people running for office, and the one fact I’ve learned, I can’t get out of my mind, is that Rudy Giuliani has been married more times than Mitt Romney’s been hunting.”

--Harry Reid

"The real Romney is clearly an extraordinarily ambitious man with no perceivable political principle whatsover. He is the most intellectually dishonest human being in the history of politics."

--Barney Frank

And finally, John McCain, after stating he opposed the English only amendment during the last Republican debate did guess what? Yup, he voted for the English only amendment.

And you wonder why Republicans are begging an overweight, bald, bad-acting, serial-lobbying, Scooter-Libby loving, Iran-Conta supporting, abortion flip-flopping, high-school-girlfriend impregnating, first-wife divorcing, for a woman younger than his daughter mind you, arrogant ass named Fred Thompson to run for president. I don't with candidates like these.
