Blow Hard

As far as GOP candidates are concerned, renowned kingmaker and fixer Mister Boo says he'd treat Christie just like a Bush.

That’d be a good title for a movie about Chris Christie, though I’m not certain that Bruce Willis can put on enough weight to land the lead role.

The smart money is saying Christie’s presidential aspirations are stuck in traffic on some bridge somewhere, and that this whole charade may have less to do with the White House than with landing him a cushy talk-show gig, which could come in handy if New Jersey moves and changes its name the next time the Mouth That Roared leaves town on a “trade mission.”

That sounds about right. One thing Chris Christie will never run short of is ass to talk out of.

  1. Mr. Boo certainly looks regal, cause he is. And I love Charlie’s bit on “Obama cooties.”

    By the by, the allergy season has started here with a vengeance. Trees are blooming early, except the mulberry trees thank goodness, and it is windy and dry. Got me hitting the benadryl bottle hard.

    1. You should’ve seen the Boo acting out during his vet appointment yesterday. Regal he was not, unless you’re talking about King Joffrey from “Game of Thrones.” Lord, does he hate the medical profession. I had to calm him with bacon bits. Hey, it always works on me.

      Allergy season is going strong here, too. I’d forgotten how very different things could be snotlocker-wise six hours south of Bibleburg. Lots of this and that in bloom, including elms and junipers. A real battering for the old bazoo.

  2. Yeah, those four leggers are cute when they want to be, and not when they don’t. Our Oscar is 10 pounds of nothing until it’s time to trim the claws. Then it takes three humans to get it done: One to hold him, one to trim the claws and one to stick cat treats in his face to distract him.

    Hey maybe you could send some of that blooming weather our way to York Pee Ay. Even the long term forecast is still giving us highs in the 20s.

  3. TV will always have a place for another bag of hot air and Christie’s a pretty big balloon. How many of these guys will actually climb out of the clown car when it’s time for the Rethug “debate”? Will Bush Jr. Jr. have sucked up all the money before they even get the party started?

    1. The powers-that-be should have a mandatory primer on the difference between weather and climate. Incredible how ignorant a supposedly well educated person can be, especially if there’s campaign funds at stake.

      1. Truth, justice, the American way, whatever that is.
        Anyway, looks like the weather will be good enough this morning for the last ride in February. We are off to Brown Canyon Ranch. I agree with John Muir about going to the mountains. I need some glad tidings!
