The Next Challenge: Orphans and Puppies
I'm beginning to think that the art of sliming others in politics is part of some sort of "Top This!" game amongst politicians with nothing better to say. One of them targets someone who is considered untargetable, getting bonus points if they can actually insult them in a way that relates to the reason they're considered untargetable.
Needless to say, Peter Roskam, who used the "cut and run" line on his Democratic challenger Tammy Duckworth, who lost her legs serving in Iraq, likely just hit the fucking bulls-eye. His prize will be lunch with Karl Rove, where they will sip the blood of preschoolers, dine on the flesh of saints, and masturbate furiously to an audio recording of Christopher Hitchens' criticisms of Mother Teresa.
