No, I'm not talking about half the guys in the country, but rather the dude on the left. He's republican Bob Inglis, a departing congressman from South Carolina who last month lost the GOP primary there to the more-conservative Trey Gowdy by a whopping 42 points. Well, now dude is angry and he's lettin' the 'ol bombshells fly! The target? None other than Bustah (errrr, Sarah) Palin!Inglis' specific Palin target (about a year after it was actually a story) is her previous claim that Obama & The Dems' health care reform plans included "death panels" from which bureaucrats would make health care rationing decisions for the elderly. Blasts Inglis this week:
"To encourage that kind of fear is just the lowest form of political leadership. It's not leadership. It's demagoguery . . . preying on [voters'] fears . . . I think we have a lot of leaders that are following these [TV and talk radio] personalities and not leading."
All of this, BTW, from a guy who reportedly told then-presidential candidate Mitt Romney in 2007 that Mormons aren't real Christians. Talk about wading into demagoguery and fear-mongering! But I digress.
Anyway, it sounds like someone needs to book a grudge match between Inglis and Palin real soon. Perhaps it could be a handicap match pitting Inglis against the tag team of Bustah & Bristol. I would stick this action in a cage -- a cage full of mud, that is -- and let them have at it, hard core rules. Palin can use one of her big hunting rivals as a weapon, so long as it's not loaded and she only tries to use it as a bludgeoning device. And Inglis' signature finishing maneuver, the Mormon Killer (a vicious variation on the classic DDT and illegal in 45 jurisdictions), will be fully legal. I see the match ending badly for the Palins, as Levi Johnston -- supposedly on hand cageside to support the Palins -- instead turns on them again and illegally interferes on Inglis' behalf, ending "Dance of the Demagogues" with an Inglis victory! And liberals everywhere rejoice!
