Democrat Party

The first Republican in the debate last night to invoke the deliberately mispronounced epithet: “Democrat Party”?

Saint McCain.

That’s when I stopped watching. I’m willing to pay attention to these guys even though I disagree with almost everything they say, but when they embrace a deliberate mispronunciation as a marketing scheme they expose their true identities as well-paid grade school recess dickheads — internet trolls with speechwriters and a press pool.

Seriously — can you imagine Senator Obama or John Edwards saying “Re-pube-lickin’”? No. You can’t imagine that because it would be childish, pathetic and beneath their dignity.

    He threw in a few of the necessary code words, too. General Patreus sez Iraq is Central Battle in the Next Code Word, Struggle Against Radical Islamic Extremism, blah blah blah.And the Fox&Friends Amateur Hour lapped it up.

    I was heartened in the post-debate coverage by Chris Matthews and Joe Scarborough that the people behind Joe’s giant head were holding up the back of their owl-signs with the messages:I HEART BRITTANY SPEARS! and COLBERT ’08.Are there screencaps of that anywhere?Also, Mitt Romney uses “if you will” as a rhetorical tic almost as much as Dick Cheney.
