Quote Of The Day From A Former Obama Supporter

OldSouth, following his morning walk (under orders to lose weight, grumble, grumble), tossed his sweaty clothes into the washer, failing to remove his mobile phone.

In case any of his readers are curious on the subject, mobile phones do not respond well to washing machines.

So, off to the mobile phone store he goes, to pick up a replacement, whilst removing egg from his grizzled face. He got a lunch with the saintly Mrs. OS out of the deal, so all was not lost.

A SweetYoungThing expertly got him situated, and while his new phone was being activated, OS overheard a conversation between a couple in their 70's and the next sales rep down the counter. It was good-natured, but it was easy to tell these folks were old-school-from-the-country folks. At one point, in deciding what to purchase, and how to pay, the wife blurted out jokingly 'I'll have to make sure Mr. Obama sent me my Social Security check!'. It was a giggle for everyone.

A minute or so later, she sidles up to OS and remarks, 'You know, I voted for Obama last time!' OS inquires, 'Are you happy with that decision, ma'am?'

Her answer: 'Is anyone?'

Heaven bless her, she gets it. Here's hoping the GOP gives her a candidate worth leaving the house to vote for.

Himself Haz Got Himself A Biiiig-Olllll'e Loozianuh Probluhm

...and it's not headquartered in London, where he can vilify it at a safe distance.

He gots himself a Jindahl problem, native-born, darker-complected than The One, with a track record of competence in a crisis...

and a biiiiiiig score to settle with a President who thinks that it's cool to wage war on his state.

Run, Bobby.

Run!
