Weiner = Hot Dog
same IQ intensive layers of fact-checking
Remember Anthony Weiner? The guy who said Goldline and the conservative talk show hosts who advertise it are eeeevil fearmongers? [Hey—even Bernanke “doesn’t understand this gold thing”—but that’s not important, now]
Weiner’s big beef was that the company sells collectible coins for *ghasp* more than their melt value. *omgomgomg* And that talk show hosts mention things like the debt being 90% of GDP, Greece, Spain, and say silly stuff like, “ Spend our way out of debt??!? Are you mental??!?”
Well, now, Weiner has a new ...erm, hobbyhorse to… uh, ride:
Yep. With some $129,063,167,099,258* [or $704,846/taxpayer] of national debt/unfunded liabilities and debt to GDP ratio at around 90% and climbing, this ... Weiner held a presser to announce he’s gonna oppose the gubbmint subsidy of $1,000,000 to mohair farmers.
Wow. Staggering work, there, Weiner.
And he managed to hurt himself on the goat.
And he pledged not to wear wool until the House strikes the mohair subsidy from the ag appropriations bill.
*CAUION: number is minutes old—may have doubled by now.
City Boy Hint: Wool comes from sheep. Mohair comes from mohair goats. Sheep ≠ Goats.
Though it is somewhat harder to hurt oneself on a sheep, being, as they are, Q-tips for dinosaurs.
“And he pledged not to wear wool until the House strikes the mohair subsidy from the ag appropriations bill.”
Well, if that doesn’t set them trembling in their Wellingtons, I surely don’t know what can be done.
