Blazing Saddles

Opened in 1974 but they only want to cancel it now. Funny if you think on it. (Via)

Blazing Democrats

My mind works in strange ways.

I saw this post by Tigerhawk about Bill Clinton pushing for Hillary to be VP.

Earlier in the day I saw this post at Betsy's Page about Barack Obama and his willingness to meet with tyrants.

My mind combined the two with a quote from Blazing Saddles into:

OK - as President I'll meet with Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Bashar al-Assad, Hugo Chávez, Kim Jong Il or the Castro brothers but no Clintons!

Sadly enough that seems to sum up the current state of the Democratic Party.

Oh and this is a riot.
