This is about as wrong as messaging gets. First there was the blatant lies about Bosnia, then, the utterly flat delivery on what could have actually been a funny April Fool’s Day joke, then … this abomination. WTF?

MSNBC’s David Shuster has a little time on his hands these days, because he’s been suspended for an indeterminate amount of time for basically calling Chelsea Clinton a whore and Hillary her pimp.
From the Washington Post:

From the Huffington Post:
Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney loaned his campaign a total of more than $35 million in 2007, according to the most recent filings of campaign finance reports.
WTF? Did anyone tell him that the job doesn’t pay this much?

From (tee hee) Andy Taylor of the AP, an almost apologetic review of Bush’s disdain for the under privileged in America:

WASHINGTON (AP) — The spiraling growth of Medicare and the high cost of renewing President Bush’s tax cuts are squeezing popular education, health, housing and anti-poverty programs in the budget blueprint that he hands [...]
