What a long, strange week it’s been!

This week was off to a bad start when the taxpayers were forced to bailout Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. If that weren’t bad enough, we had to listen to Barack Obama saying that wealth re-distribution is neighborly. It was one of those moments when I cocked my head, furrowed my brow and thought “Did he just say what I think he said?”

Things only got kookier as the week went on. Barack Obama made his “lipstick on a pig” and “stinky fish wrapped in paper” comments, which he said had nothing to do with Sarah Palin. That’s odd, because his audience started chanting “No pit bull!”

It wasn’t just Obama acting bizarre. Joe Biden told a man in a wheel chair to stand up. No wonder he said Hillary should have been Obama’s running mate.

To honor the victims of 9/11 Keith Olbermann released a venom filled rant against politicians he dislikes. Then Charlie Gibson literally looked down his nose at Sarah Palin while accusing her of hubris. Can’t wait for Part 2!

New York Governor David Paterson said “community organizer” is code for “black” and Barack Obama said “mayor” is code for “trash man.”

During the 9/11 forum Barack Obama declared that the concept of limited government is passe and we need to look to the future. He promised to extend the reach of the federal government into all aspects of our lives.

Barack Obama’s campaign released a new ad today making fun of old people. That should go over really well with the “most likely to vote” crowd.

Today Barack Obama, a’la his ‘new politics’ vowed to start hitting back and hitting hard. Does he mean he’ll bring a knife to a gun fight or a gun to a knife fight? And to top it all off, Whoopie Goldberg asked John McCain if she’ll be a slave again if he’s elected President. Wow! And she doesn’t look a day over sixty.

Come to think of it, John McCain and Sarah Palin are among the few this week who didn’t seem like total weirdos.
