2012 republican presidential nominee IV: NEEDS MORE BOOING

at first, I thought it was some sort of g00gleproof device.

didn't make any sense, but I was trying to get into this guy's mind.

For all the George Will fans--oh wait, that's me--they were talking about Augusta this morning:

Jake Tapper: "George, it's an anachronism, right? I mean, you can admit that."
Will: "Sure it's an anachronism...I'm an anachronism in a great many ways."

Sincerely curious as to the difference here:

I think both are perfectly okay uses of leisure time. Just listened to Mary Matalin explain how one is everything that makes America great, while the other was, and remains, some kind of badge of fraudulence.

I don't think it does romney any favors but for better or worse democrats have to 'prove authenticity' in ways that republicans don't

boogie boards cost $10 at walmart; kerry appears to be wearing special goggles

I mean it might be a 'thing' earlier in the gop primary but the only people who are crazy enough to try and make 'going to the beach' a controversial anti-american activity have mostly accepted their fate as romney voters

Causing great distress for the nation at times.

and these people are usually the ones who make "dressing to go to the beach" a controversial activity

hahaha can't wait for the photoshop.

Emphatic non-dibs on that, but I have a kind of dicey history with that whole genre.

The Obama bowling thing was kind of hard to believe

I should have posted it side-by-side with this, which happened simultaneously:

Just as awkward and far more creepy, although with the advantage of not leaving behind a score.

Sometimes forget image tags:

okay, now that really IS triggering palin bikini flashbacks

jeez, Charlton Heston looked goofier than I remembered

I actually wasn't 100% sure that was fake, it seemed almost plausible for a second, maybe from her rural woman period in the primary

that was really one of the most amazing coups, everyone just suddenly accepting her as a downhome pickup truck driver woman of the people, I still don't really understand what happened

I should pretend I intended for everyone to do a triple-take, but, embarrassing as this is, I thought that was a real photo dating back to all that nonsense she spouted in Pennsylvania in '08. Whatever she said at the time was basically in line with the photo. I'm a little too quick to search and post sometimes. Note to self: must check man-hands next time. Or suit and tie. Or clumsy photoshop. Or something.

I have a vague memory that Hillary ordered a boilermaker in Pennsylvania or Ohio in the spring of 2008. Not 100% sure if it happened. Her version of bowling?

Googled. It was almost 4 years ago to the day (4/13/08):

"CROWN POINT, Indiana – After a day of taking shots at rival Sen. Barack Obama over his "bitter" remarks, Sen. Hillary Clinton relaxed in Crown Point, Indiana and took a shot of a different kind – Crown Royal whiskey."

No shrinking violet, HRC, but a man's man, apparently. More of the same authenticity crap more likely.

Kicking and a-gouging, the guns and the mud and the beer:

one day that's gonna be a document for some ap us history exam

She ran against a black guy.

Since when is Crown Royal some hard workin' salt-of-the-earth-type drink? It's not exactly Old Overholt...

Canadian booze? What a pinko.

I love that airplane picture.

so Newt has accepted reality -- has clemenza? Perhaps you're ready for your general election thread, One's a Born Liar, The Other's Self-Made.

Yes, sometime around Ohio. (A small part of me is still hoping for a Cain/Perry ticket to light up the convention.) Now, I know you haven't been on this thread much. When there is a thread for the general, please remember to be on your best behaviour.

Damn, woman.

I'd have to cover myself with a volleyball too.

Man, I would love to sit around and do shots with H. Rod.

I'd love to put her in prison, with pretty much everyone she's worked with.

When there is a thread for the general, please remember to be on your best behaviour.

I'll be in the streets with the 99% instead of being distracted by The Big Charade.

Morbz into handcuffs and batons, I get you.

tsk tsk
