Two amusing stories about Democrats provided in today’s BOTW, authored by evil, mean, hate-mongering conservative James Taranto. The first is about Dean:
The Washington Times relates this anecdote from the Howard Dean campaign:
Dean campaign manager Kate O’Connor was, perhaps, excited.
“We’re back in Vermont for the day,” she had messaged supporters. “We’re in the office reintroducing ourselves to the people we work with!! And it sure is exciting here in the HQ!! Someone put a Coke can in the trash–and boy, was that a mistake! The Gov. noticed and reminded us that everything must be recycled!”
Groan.
The second is about Nancy Pelosi:
The Hill reports that when Congress adjourned for August, Rep. Nancy Pelosi, the House minority leader, sent her members home with a “recess packet” that “includes detailed instructions on how to throw a local party–a 38th birthday bash for Medicare.” Among the advice: “Order your cake! Order a sheet cake with ‘Happy Birthday Medicare’ written on it.” There’s more:
The orders go on: “Buy additional party supplies. Be creative. Buy a ‘Happy Birthday’ tablecloth for the center table. Purchase disposable plates and utensils if the facility will not provide them. You may also wish to purchase additional party favors — horns and whistles can be very useful to ‘boo’ the Republican agenda,” suggests the document.
Double Groan.
