Who is this idiot making sweet, sweet love to the corndog?


Why it's John Hinderaker, a blogger for the conservative blog Powerline. Now, loving the wonder that is an all-beef kosher dog, covered in buttermilk corn meal and fried to a golden-brown hue does not one crazy make.


However, Hinderaker announced his ridiculi to the nation last year, when he won Kevin Drum's inaugural "Golden Wingnut Award" with this gem about George W. Bush's greatness: "A man of extraordinary vision and brilliance approaching to genius, he can't get anyone to notice."


Fear not, my lovers of uneducated overstatement, the Hinderaker is back, better than ever. As Benen notes, Johnny H. has some incredible advice for "that one:"
Obama thinks he is a good talker, but he is often undisciplined when he speaks.
He needs to understand that as President, his words will be scrutinized and will
have impact whether he intends it or not. In this regard, President Bush is an
excellent model; Obama should take a lesson from his example. Bush never gets
sloppy when he is speaking publicly. He chooses his words with care and
precision, which is why his style sometimes seems halting. In the eight years he
has been President, it is remarkable how few gaffes or verbal blunders he has
committed. If Obama doesn't raise his standards, he will exceed Bush's total
before he is inaugurated.


What the f#*k? So apparently, in Hinderakerville, the fact that W has for the past 8 years acted and spoke with less acumen and ability than Chunk from the Goonies is not because he is dumber than a bag of hammers. Rather, it is because he is speaking with "care and precision." You can't write jokes funnier than the sincere beliefs some of these bozos have.
