Red Meat, Blue Shirt

And now comes the part of the campaign wherein Fred must speak in eensy sentences and stay "on message" and use lots of Popular Phrases.

What's he's saying is important, and real, and needs to be said. But of course I like the video Fred better than the one who has to appeal to large crowds and stick with slogans.

I like it when he's displaying his fabulous mind, rather than just exercising charm.

He'll need to do lots of both, though, in the months ahead.

1 Sorry to comment on your commenter spam, but is anyone else a bit weirded out by, apparently, "new cool Judy Dench porn".

2 I have been informed that there is, in fact, such a thing as "senior porn." In fact, I imagine there is a segment of the B&D crowd that has seen the James Bond movies, and is intrigued by her portrayal of "M."

4 And American boys never forget . . . I'm going to stop right here. This exercise is so beneath me . . .

5 ;-) I always thought it was better to give than receive, though. More sensory experiences for my memory archives, you see. And that's when two or three times were a real possibility, even. Now I definitely know which option I'd choose.

6 Fred is seen as the first Republican great comminicator since Reagan. Potentially, that is. That''s why all the knives are out. It will never let up. Maybe they'll ask him to name every diplomat in the world next, off the top of his head. All Obama has to say if that he will meet with every one of them.

7 That's "communicator". Guess that's why Fred's in and I'm not.

8 Fred does not realize that the average 22 year old soldier can't find Iraq on the map.

9 Um . . . sure. I'll bite. (So to speak.) Az, one presumes you are speaking of American soldiers, no? Or are you counting Brits, Aussies, or . . . Israelis? Does that include the soldiers who are actually in Iraq? And were they blindfolded while they flew over there? Just curious about how your mind works.

10 Attila, if they had such skills, they might be able to find their way back home. But looks to me like we got a hole bunch of soldiers stuck in Iraq indefinately. Digging themselves deeper eah day.

11 That's what GPS is for. Now, how long have we been in Europe? Japan? Korea? Bosnia? Cuba? Four and a half years only seems like eternity when I am "talking" to you. Ditto four and a half seconds.
