The Poor Little Rich Boy |
Here is one of the funniest exchanges in Sunday's Democratic presidential
debate;
Wolf Blitzer: What is a "rich person," Senator Edwards?
The Lovely and Talented John Edwards: I don't know if I know
what a rich person is.
Bart Harmon offers Edwards a little help:
You might be rich person if . . .
You pay 400 bucks for a haircut, and that's with the ladies' day discount.
Your house has more square footage than most Central American counties.
You leave a larger carbon footprint than the eruption of Mount Vesuvius.
Your last three jobs were medical malpractice attorney, U.S. senator and hedge
fund manager.
You can talk easily about two Americas because you own at least one of them.
You are paid $55,000 an hour to speak about poverty, and that's your college
rate.

Leave Edwards alone - he has a deep and abiding love for his Lord
Jesus Christ.
Really.
I heard him say so.
He wouldn't lie would he?

Here's a thigh-slapper:
Former Wisconsin Gov. Tommy Thompson, asked how he would employ
President George W. Bush if he won the White House:
"I would put him out on a lecture series, talking to the youth of
America about honesty, integrity, perseverance, passion."
-Republican candidate debate, June 6, 2007
enough to gag a maggot.
