It’s delicious, isn’t it? The subject line of this diary is really a headline on RedState.com. A front page diary. The meat of the post is that Republicans were duped in voting for the Budget Control Act. And now, these same Republicans are “beclowning” themselves for its repeal.
side note: what does it mean to beclown yourself? It doesn’t sound good, but I’m not sure it’s a word!
The diary has some choice quotes, like:
We all agree that the across-the-board nature of the sequester cuts to the military are dumb. But they were enacted by the same dumb people who are pursuing its repeal.
But the point of THIS diary is not to talk about beclowning or hootenanny or flibberflubber, it’s to point out that the ship is sinking and we’re not the only ones who have noticed.
From FoxNews.com:
As of this writing, only two mention of Romney on their Politics page
1. Romney fundraiser video causing media uproar
2. Obama has edge over Romney in three battleground states
Well, it’s more than just three states, but I won’t quibbledibble about it with FoxNews.
From the Weekly Standard:
1. A special report on “redistribution”
2. And an article about Romney doing the unthinkable, taking credit for Obamacare
From Breitbart.com
1. Oh no! Obama Support is dropping apparently (only one source!)
2. And Senator Brown leads Warren by four, in really big typeface!
At the National Review, Mitt is having a “Gettysburg Moment” which is a good thing (?), I think, because he’s in the news a lot, or something.
And a very positive spin on how Romney is trying to win the coal constituency, except he isn’t.
I could go on and on. Things are desperate in Romneyland. I feel strongly about asking you to pass the popcorn, but I’ve got better things to do. Like continue to help Barack Obama get reelected and help the Democrats hold the Senate.
