Just watched 'Face The Nation'. I couldn't stop watching Dick Armey.


He was full of bullshit, as I expected, but I was fascinated by his wattle.

It was bouncing up and down. I couldn't even concentrate on what he was spewing. I didn't need to because he never says anything important; he's just a fountain of crap.

But man, that wattle thang. "2. A fleshy, wrinkled, often brightly colored fold of skin hanging from the neck or throat, characteristic of certain birds, such as chickens or turkeys, and some lizards."

http://www.thefreedictionary.com/wattle



You'd think a guy with all that stolen cash would take care of that thang surgically or something.

I know it's not cool to make fun of personal appearances, but this was really strange.

1. I always knew he had some lizard back there somewhere.
I wouldn't insult turkeys.

3. No offense to turkeys intended.
Wattles are normal for turkeys.

Nothing about Dick Armey is normal.

But at least he has the most appropriate name in politics.

4. He's a thief of the highest order.
That brings him respect in the world of the Bush Crime Family.
