Applesauce
Pat Cunningham offers an unabashedly liberal perspective on national politics. A note of caution: The language gets a litttle salty on some of the sites to which this blog links. So, don’t say you weren’t warned. By the way, this blog’s name is inspired by the Will Rogers quote, “All politics is applesauce.”

The occasion was a Republican presidential debate this past January.

John McCain was asked about his qualifications to handle the nation’s economy.

His answer touched upon Iraq, patriotism, Ronald Reagan, Islamic extremism, his experience as a prisoner of war and several other irrelevant topics. But he uttered not one word about the economy.

Check it out (Hat/Tip to the Jed Report for the video clip):

It’s not plagiarism if you credit the source

With Joe Biden’s emergence as the presumptive Democratic vice-presidential nominee, lots of media are dredging up the old fairy tale that the Delaware senator ruined his own White House bid of 20 years ago by frequently using a line from British Laborite Neil Kinnock (above) without giving him credit.

It’s a bum rap, as we see HERE.
