Terrific. What an idiot. This will give the media another 2-3 week excuse to not talk about Barack Obama and his failed economic policies.

“Welcome to the word?”

Couldn’t spot the story about Chris Lee, however.

Spare us Twitter links, please.

Chris Lee just became the first politician in America to run an honest advertisement.

As very soon he will be a Divorced Lobbyist.

The guy's probably a jerk. But why is Barney Frank still there, and revered by some no less?
