Well, my Cubs hat is tipped to Moveon.org.
They've accomplished what they wanted in their on-the-cheap ad in the Times last week, playing on the name of General Petraus.
They have inspired the US Senate to perform one of its best circle jerks in some time.
This, of course, is like Michael Jordon out-doing himself in the dunking realm...or Andy Dick doing something really creepy, even for him.
Here's what happened:
John Cornyn (R-TX) brought up a bill condemning the ad that The Decider called "disgusting."
Since they were apparently now in the business of offering unsolicited commentary on private sector advertising, Barbie Box-uh (D-CA) decided to throw on an amendment saying that they were also pissed at how John Kerry was swiftboated and Max Cleland's devotion to this country was pushed into ambiguity.
The Texan accused Boxer of changing the subject, to which she said, 'I know you are, but what am I?'
The Boxer amendment failed, but the larger bill passed.
