Thought of the Day

Amanda Marcotte tweeted that female Republicans are no calling themselves "Steel Magnolias." I tweeted this response to Marcotte.

@AmandaMarcotte Conservatives calling themselves "Young Guns" & "Steel Magnolias." Is this an 80s movie revival?

Marcotte tweeted back.

@pushingrope Of course, many aren't young or from the South.

I'm sure you remember the grey-haired Congressman Kevin McCarthy trying to pass himself off as a young gun. Who is he trying to kid?

The RNC could do a great service to the country by getting elected Beltway Republicans a Netflix subscription. To any Beltway Republicans reading this. There have been movies made past the year 1989. There is a great one in the theatres right now called Inception. It may not star any of the actors in The Breakfast Club, but I'm sure you will enjoy it. And please stop using the names of bad 80s movies for marketing purposes. Most twenty-somethings don't know who Emilio Estevez is.
