A Circus, Indeed

Some of the younger, more exuberant members of the White House communications team have been encouraging their Democrat press secretary friends to really make fun of House Republican Whip Eric Cantor for skipping the Big Guy's press conference and attending a Britney Spears concert instead.

I mean, who wouldn't pay top dollar to see the world class performance of someone lip-synching the words composed and conveyed by someone else?

That said, perhaps Cantor should have a long counseling session with Rep. Thaddeus McCotter, whose taste in music is impeccable ... for a Republican.

    I thought you were describing your situation there for a moment.

  2. I'm a big fan of this site, but, I'm missing the joke on McCotter? The reference to McCotter's taste in music -- I'm drawing a blank.

    Explanation, please?

  3. Oh No!
    You mean its all fake? I can tell lip-synching when I see it (generally). Except when it is sooo well done that I am fooled.
    Nah, it's not, it's really real.

  4. I don't blame him for going to see Britney. First, she is more enteraining. Besides, he got to see half naked person dancing all over the place. As we all know, Cantor does not get invited to the O-man's parties. He needs to get his kicks somewhere.

  6. The McCotter line was serious. See his RedEye with Greg Gutfeld segments. The man's knowledge of rock n roll is encycolpedic.

  7. I'd rather watch Britney myself. What you see is what you get - it's a no brainer!

  9. TOTUS-I learned about your blog a few days ago. You are obviously hardworking and doing your best to try to help the Big Buy appear articulate. Can you explain why he reads what you are providing to him in such stilted and clipped partial sentences? It's as if he is a first grader just learning to read and doesn't comprehend what he is reading. You have a tough job and I appreciate what you are doing for our country.

  13. TOTUS are you writing the script for BONER and Cantor too?

    These guys might as well be campaigning for Big O's Big Budget.

  14. Is this the same as Big O missing President Bush's farewell address?
