SCANDAL in Governor’s Race!

The other day we got a campaign postcard from Leslie Petersen, a candidate for Governor. The card was designed (assuming by the big letters on the front) to highlight her stance "On Conservation, Hunting, & Fishing." It was pretty generic, as these things tend to be, trying to win over the outdoorsy/sportsmen voters. On the back of the card was this picture to drive home the point:

On the card this image was only about an inch and a half high. Not something you'd pay much attention to. At least, until my dad said, "But that's a walleye. And she has fly-fishing waders on. You don't fly fish for walleye. And who holds a fish by the tail?"

Then I looked at it. "She's not holding it by the tail--she's not holding it at all. There are no fingers going around the tail." Pause. "That's not even a real fish! That's a clipart fish just imposed on her hand!"

So I guess Leslie Petersen thinks the people of Wyoming are stupid...and we might be, though she is the one using the incorrect "insure" (should be "ensure") on her campaign materials.

But what do I know. I'm just a dumb hick. A dumb hick who won't be voting for Leslie Petersen or her fake fish.

Falahime

Falahime Blah blah blah, Wyoming, blah blah, massage therapist, details cars, used to sell beer, blah blah, hunts big game. That’s about all there is to me; I’m pretty simple.

“We doin’ big pimpin’ up in NYC”: From a little ACORN, a scandal grows in Brooklyn

Oh my, that title sounds like a novel Iâ€™d rather not readâ€¦

It seems that it was not such a fluke when ACORN employees were caught on film advising folks how to simultaneously run a brothel staffed by under age illegal aliens and dodge the taxes on the revenues of that operation.Â The latest episode in the criminal saga is set in Brooklyn.

To which ACORN is responding, Fuhgeddabowdit !; Darleen at PW covers the story where Bertha Lewis invokes a comparison to Willie Horton, all while threatening legal action.

But Ms. Lewis unwittingly makes an excellent analogy when she compares ACORN to Willie Horton; just not the one she intended. Because ACORN is a criminal enterprise, which has already been caught in wrongdoing, that will to violate the law, the rights of people, and defraud the government of money and the right to fair and accurate elections if facilitated by liberals; just like Willie Horton was allowed to continue to brutalize people while on â€œworkâ€ release from his life sentence in prisonâ€¦

She wants to sound the oft employed dog-whistle of Â RAAAAACISM!, but unfortunately for her and ACORN, the proof is in these videos; not to mention that her allies on the left have worn out the race card in the eyes of most Americans with itâ€™s gratuitous use attacking all who oppose Obamaâ€™s policy prescriptionsâ€¦

And sue the filmmaker? Iâ€™m afraid there is way too much precedent set for hidden camera sting video operations done by news organizations and whistleblowers. And all the howls of RAAAAAAACISM! in the world wonâ€™t change that inconvenient truth.

Itâ€™s time that ACORN stopped feeding at the public trough; otherwise the US taxpayer will continue, â€œdoin' big pimpin, spendin' cheeseâ€...
