Bill Richardson Withdraws!

Today's news of New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson's withdrawal from consideration for the post of Secretary of Commerce in the incoming Cabinet poses more difficulties for the Democrats' New Messiah.

Looking portly and minus the beard, Richardson acknowledged the grand jury investigation into why some of his donors landed choice contracts from the state of New Mexico.

Did someone say 'vetting?'

Apparently, where the New Messiah is concerned, like attracts like. Coming from the corrupt Chicago Machine, the First Rookie naturally gravitated to a graft-prone Governor for his cabinet.

As a conservative, this is looking better and better. The Rookie Senator can't even get sworn in before looking like a novice, messing up a cabinet selection.

As I have predicted, he'll make Carter look good before he's through.

Fred Thompson evidently received a letter from Michael Moore, inviting him to a debate. I didn't catch the opening act, but apparently Fred castigated Moore for visiting Cuba to make a one-sided video/film about the economically-wrecked island's great health care system.

Here is Fred's response, on YouTube.

Also featured in today's Wall Street Journal was this funny, mock job interview by Bill Richardson as a Presidential candidate.

Apparently, Hillary did one on finding a theme song for her campaign, with an allegedly humorous reference to her inability to sing. I won't bother posting that link, as I am not planning to view it. My stomach's a little tender for that kind of abuse.
