You’ve heard of “squirrel politics”, right?
Democrats practice this all the time. We bring up something substantive (name any of Obama’s numerous scandals, the national debt, unemployment, yada yada yada) and they do the equivalent of shouting, “Look! A squirrel!”
Sometimes it’s a strawman argument; more often it’s RAAAAAAAACISM or one of the other tired old personal attacks they can’t seem to outgrow. But always, it’s meant to deflect the conversation from things they can’t handle. I.e., facts, logic, principles, common sense.
The GOP has had a long-standing problem with being too stodgy.
I think this may be changing. Hillary Clinton is out on her “I Wanna Be Prezident” book tour and the GOP has a guy in a SQUIRREL COSTUME following her around, handing out bumper stickers that say, “Another Clinton in the White House is Nuts!” And the U in NUTS is an ACORN.
I think it’s brilliant! Some of the Lefties on Twitter snarked that the guy in the squirrel suit was a big loser. ::snort:: This coming from the people who cheer women who dress up as vaginas. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
