Sound Bite – Oct. 2, 2008

I do not blame the market…this was a huge government failure.”

— Rep. Eleanor Holmes Norton, D-D.C.

Dim Bulb


Who: Andy Lacasse

What: Lacasse, a Korean War veteran and a registered Democrat until Barack Obama won his party’s nomination, posted a sign in his Barefoot Bay, Florida front yard that says: “Obama Half-Breed Muslin.”

Why it’s dim: The sign was obviously meant as a racial and religious slur, but muslin is a fabric, not a religious designation.

Cure: For bulbs this dim, laughter is the best.
