By now, you've probably heard of the shot the MSNBC columnist took at former Tennessee Senator Fred Thompson's wife, Jeri. If you haven't, see here from America's litter box liner of record. If you want to see it, you know the drill:
A reporter from WFAN in NYC was on just before that and mentioned that she used a pole of some sort as a means of training. Mr. Scarborough then wondered aloud if Mrs. Thompson "works the pole", potentially a reference to er, exotic dancing. On the one hand, yeah, that's a potentially valid reference, to the prior segment, but given Joe's wiseacre attitude and the context of the conversation, I'd suggest a less favorable interpretation just out of pure spite for Scarborough. Perhaps if I liked him more---or if the Red Sox had beaten Oakland last night---I'd be more charitable, but I don't, they didn't, and so I'm not.
Meh, it's not like I watch Scarborough anyways. MSNBC has been dead to me for years anways, and their canning of Imus torched the corpse. To quote a movie, "You dirtbags have been in third place for five years." (Note: I have no idea of what the actual ratings are, nor do I care.)
Anyways, if Fred runs and wins, we'll be guaranteed a good-looking First Lady. Of course, that's not the only reason to support Senator Thompson's candidacy. He does seem, on the basis of what I've read, to have some sense about him when it comes to illegal aliens. Furthermore, he may see clearly on the question of the future course of our strategic policy vis a vis the Islamists, and he doesn't have any of the negatives (to my mind) that Giuliani, McCain, and Romney bring to the table.
Hooray for Fred.

This posting has been somewhat overtaken by events. I saw the story here and Mr. Orr has an extended statement here that explains the thing. What's 48 hours behind the rest of the news cycle? Nothing, especially if you're like me who is apparently the Frank Vitchard of the blogging world.
