QOTD: "If President Obama traipsed before the cameras in full regalia and announced that he was Napoleon, Republicans would count it a resounding victory if they could but convince him to take that funny hat off while indoors. John McCain would remind us that elections have consequences while Lindsey Graham would demurely disclose that, "I give him great discretion."

Want proof? Regarding the nomination of the supremely inept Chuck Hagel to be Secretary of Defense (Neville Chamberlain being indisposed at the moment), John McCain concluded, "No, I don't believe he's qualified. But I don't believe that we should hold up his nomination any further, because I think it's (been) a reasonable amount of time to have questions answered." Why not nominate Oprah then? It would take even less time to establish her lack of qualification to head the Department of Defense. " --Dave Carter
