We elected George W. Bush in blackface:
Mr. Obama, who is to meet at the White House with the bipartisan leadership of Congress in an effort to work out an agreement to raise the federal debt limit, wants to move well beyond the $2 trillion in savings sought in earlier negotiations and seek perhaps twice as [...]
Arlene Ackerman: Piggie of the Week
Shorter Christine Flowers: “Do the Crime, Do the Time… AND NO JOBS FOR YOU EVER AGAIN.”
And this woman’s a LAWYER???:

AP Ticker Speaks the Truth on Arlene Ackerman
Sunday Sunday Sunday
This will be one of the last Delco Nightingale gigs in Philadelphia before we head west to play Viva Las Vegas XIV and then the Turner Classic Movies Festival (!!) in Hollywood.
