Calling Slick Willie

Jake at Page One reports that Kentucky Democratic Party disbursements for last month include "$75 on a massage for an intern."

Good to see the Democrats practice the same stewardship for donors that they do for the taxpayers.

If only said intern could have waited until Monday, when former President Bill Clinton comes to campaign for Jack Conway. I'll bet Bubba would have done the massage for free, just for the good of the party and because he's just that kind of guy.

KDP Wants a Moral Leader

The Kentucky Democratic Party, according to B&P, questions whether Rand Paul has "any other activity in his background that could affect his ability to be a moral leader in the United States Senate?" KDP illustrates that the only thing worse than a hypocrite is a sanctimonious hypocrite.

To be sure, it's easy to see why the KDP longs for a "moral leader" in the United States Senate. Democrats have had slim pickings this session, what with Ted ("I was too drunk to know I killed her" Kennedy, Robert "KKK" Byrd, Maxine"Don't call me corrupt" Waters, Charlie "I'm not corrupt, just stupid" Rangel and Chris "Countryside" Dodd.

That's what passes for "progressive" moral leadership in the U.S. Senate these days -- crooks and liars who worship the Aqua Buddha known as the Potomac River, and who will do anything to stay within its reach.
