WSPD’s Brian Wilson and I had a rollicking good chat today at the Conservative Political Action Conference. CPAC seemed fairly lame this year – about as dynamic as a two-day old wake.

But…but…you were Natilie dressed! 😀
I reckon people from Ohio never seen a good leather hat before – the perfect winter topping on a blustery day.
I had a leather racing hat for a long time, picked up in Korea, that I liked. I’m presuming this is one of those big floppy Australian-bushbeater kinda things?
The comments and observations y’all were making about the event were just plain heart-rending, though. Not surprising, given that I’m a subscriber to the Brian Wilson “We’re Doomed” viewpoint … but watching the train wreck in progress, even knowing it’s going to happen, just has a certain extra-special misery to it.
Lucky for you were @3000 miles from where the train went off the tracks.
My leather hat is sorta Aussie – not sure of the exact description. It is very comfortable in the winter, as long as temps are above 15 or 20 and the wind is not howling.
Mr. Bovard’s leather fedora did not “top” the most outrageous event of Day 1: the nose-percolating liners from Congressthingy Michelle Bachman.
Award winner: (slight paraphrasing) Govt Forces For Gooodness “just arrested a mid-Eastern type down in Miami who was trying to hire someone to bring a great big bomb. Right here!To Washington! THIS VERY CITY! RIGHT HERE! To blow up the Saudi ambassador!
Now Iran is no further away from Israel than Miami is from Washington!
So we must bomb Iran to keep Washinton safe!”
Alrighty then…
Ms.Bachman also vocalized the scariest statement of CPAC (so far)
“I sit on the House Intelligence Committee….”.
We are so doomed.
But everyone agreed: Bovard was Natalie attired.
Quoth Brian, “Ms.Bachman also vocalized the scariest statement of CPAC (so far)
“I sit on the House Intelligence Committee….”.”
It is one of the sad facts of modern life, for thinking adults, that the truth IS scary. And stranger than fiction.
As I mentioned to Jim in email, I only got as far as her screeching about how we had to kill all the Iranians … well, because! … and had to hit the mute button. Yesterday’s invoice will reflect the lowered level of supervision, because there are just some things, such as listening to La Bachman, that you cannot pay even a lawyer to do…
