Who The F#ck Is Doc Thompson?

He's Glenn Beck's fill-in, via ThinkProgress:

For years I’ve suggested that racism was in decline and yeah, there are some, you know, incidents that still happen with regards to racism, but most of the claims I’ve said for years, well, they’re not really real. But I realize now that I was wrong. For I now too feel the pain of racism. Racism has been dropped at my front door and the front door of all lighter-skinned Americans. The health care bill the president just singed into law includes a 10 percent tax on all indoor tanning sessions starting July 1st, and I say, who uses tanning? Is it dark-skinned people? I don’t think so. I would guess that most tanning sessions are from light-skinned Americans. Why would the President of the United Stats of America — a man who says he understands racism, a man who has been confronted with racism — why would he sign such a racist law? Why would he agree to do that? Well now I feel the pain of racism.

Doc, it would be an excellent time for you to get drunk and fall asleep in a tanning bed.

Costume Foolery.

     I blogged yesterday about irrelevant former Bush Chief of Staff Andrew Card. The Mr. Blackwell of the Oval Office was in a snit because he's unhappy that President Obama's dress code doesn't require a suit jacket, whereas The Decider's did.

     If an argument was needed to prove that clothes don't make the man, witness the eight years of the well-dressed Dubya Disaster.

     Andy Card must have forgotten that photographers tend to keep their pictures, and today's Huffington Post has the two below, showing both GOP patron saint Ronald Reagan and the aforementioned Boy Bush jacketless, working separately on their versions of Armageddon. 

     Presidents Kennedy, Ford, Carter and Clinton are also shown sans suit jackets on HuffPo.

     President Obama may have decided that a more relaxed Oval Office dress code translates into "less is more."

     In the cases of Reagan and Bush, less really was less...
