"I am giddy is what I am, because I had such a lovely day off yesterday, which
was ruined by Barack Obama. Yesterday, the Obamas visited with President Bush.
Yes, they visited with President Bush at their future residence, the White
House. Hey, for the record, a real candidate of change would move into the Air
and Space Museum. How fun would that be?"
"I'm not the only one who noticed the press bias against John McCain. So has
John McCain. Last week, his campaign sent an e-mail to reporters saying, "It's
pretty obvious that the media has a bizarre fascination with Barack Obama. Some
may even say it's a love affair." This has got to be hard on McCain. It is tough
seeing your old flame with someone new. John McCain and the media had a very hot
fling back in the summer of 2000. They even had cute little nicknames for each
other. The press called McCain "Maverick," and McCain called the press any time
he wanted favorable coverage."
"Nation, the big story is still Barack Obama's world tour. I got to give him
credit. Once again today, he made history by being the first man to travel
around the world in a plane propelled only by the power of the media's flash
photography. But I got to say, there are some cracks starting to show in
Obama's overseas juggernaut. Take a look at what he said yesterday in the
Israeli town of Sderot: [Obama claims to be on the Senate Banking Committee].
Pretty impressive. Only problem: Obama isn't on the Banking Committee. He tells
everyone that, but in fact he is the Banking Committee equipment manager.
Senator, if are you going to lie about being on a committee, at least choose a
cool one. Like the Senate Committee on Lion Fighting. Or the Jet Pack Caucus."
"But while Obama was speaking to 100,000 adoring fans in Germany, McCain made
his own impressive German appearance [at Schmidt's Sausage Haus].
Unfortunately, not many supporters showed up, possibly due to his advertising
flyers: "Come to John McCain's Sausage Party." Senator, excellent job matching
Obama step for step, but he has been to a lot of countries, so if you just
cover your bases, you might want to hit an IHOP."
