Eddie and Bart, a Morality Play

   Certainly the most unctious, if not dishonest 2004 Donk wannabe is John Kerry.  Today we read that he will not acknowledge his  membership in Yale's Skull & Bones society.  Why?  Because other smug Liberals, like Slate's Jacob Weisburg,  might ask how he  squares "his liberalism with membership in such an elitist club that refused to admit women."  Kerry would score points with the people who might actually elect him (and that aint the looney left) if he responded, "Yeah, I was a member.  If you don't like it, eat me."  But then, if Kerry was up to doing that, he wouldn't be running as a Donk in the first place, would he?

    If Kerry is 100% Eddie Haskell, Tom DeLay's DNA is pure Bart Simpson.  The Washington Post's male gossip columnist (Lloyd Grove) is reporting that Tex DeLay walked out on a fundraiser recently.  The manager of Ruth's Chris Steak House told him he couldn't smoke his after dinner cigar, so he said "Eat me," and left.  Walking out is exactly what every smoker (I am not one) should do in that instance, so that was good.  What was bad is his boorish behavior in between.  When the manager explained that the restaurant was leasing  space in a federal government owned building, which proscribed any smoking, DeLay turned bully.  "I am the federal government," he reportedly argued.  Fie!

    I haven't been there in a while, but unless they've changed policy, Morton's not only offers better meat, but it's de riguer to smoke a nice cigar - which you can buy on site - with your brandy. Learn from this Bart, er .. Tom.

DeLay is a total asshole. He travels with a security detail of about 6 big dudes. I, and two of my friends, were kicked off of an elevator at CPAC this year when DeLay wanted a ride. We waited for 30 minutes to get that damn thing and we got kicked off by that asshole. I'm a huge Repub, but I would never vote for that asshole!
