Unlike that dingbat Sarah Palin, who probably can't write her name in the sand with a stick, the incomperably brilliant Maureen Dowd recently penned a column based entirely on inventing a suffix to Congressman Joe Wilson's (R-SC) outburst against President Obama. In it, she claimed that Joe Wilson (R-SC) was in fact a racist because when he shouted, "You lie!" at the president, what he really meant to say was, "You lie, boy!" That final word, invented entirely by Maureen Dowd, clearly proved Joe's racism.
Well, while Sarah Palin* works her way through third grade reading primers, let's all engage in a contest with the very clever Miss Dowd. Just what was the suffix to Joe's shout of "You lie!"? I have several possibilities. Feel free to place yours in the comments.
You lie! I have too filled my pants full of live starfish!
You lie! The apatosaurus was way cooler than the triceratops!
You like broccoli!
Now it's your turn. What did Joe mean to say? As I think of more, I'll throw them in the comments, too.
* - After all, any idiot can manage a massive state, run a family fishing business, be the mayor of a town and raise five kids, one of whom is mentally disabled. It takes a genius like Miss Dowd to be a permanently single, unpleasant, venomous harpy writing irrational screeds for a failing newspaper.
There is a difference between being stupid and ignorant. Sarah illustrates this. And its sort of confirmed by what Bush 43 had to say about her. Not that he had very high opinions of anyone running in that race.
ReplyDeleteI would argue that Sarah would have made a far better president than Barack. Ignorant people can learn pretty quickly, but impractical people are much slower in gaining experience. Obama's Health Care concepts, assuming he actually believes what he says, are totally impractical and only a great deal of hard experience, shared by the entire country, will change his mind. An experienced executive like Sarah, no matter how dim you think she is, would be much less likely to make the same hopelessly naive claims.
