Who are you going to believe, me or your own lying language?
I know I shouldn’t be surprised by the truth-eaters, but damn:
Like Lincoln’s plain manner of speaking, Joe [the Plumber]’s commentary is still unvarnished; it still “has the bark on” as the phrase was applied to Lincoln. And if anyone reading this immediately jumps to the conclusion that I am comparing Joe Wurzelbacher to Abraham Lincoln, you have a perfect example of the dynamic I am talking about.
What was Whittle thinking? —I suppose maybe if somebody called him on it, he could always point to this and this and say Obama says he doesn’t “compare” himself to Lincoln, but we know better, so QED?
