Lately, whenever I get all riled up about something the right-wing blogs do (thanks, Sadly, No!), I get gentlt reminded that "the extreme left wing blogs do the same type of thing". I don't completely agree with that, but am willing to concede that yeah, some times the left can be ridiculous. The whole "Buffalo Chip" controversy qualifies as one of those times.
Addressing a biker rally at Sturgis, McCain said of his wife "'I told her with a little luck she could be the only lady to serve as first lady and Miss Buffalo Chip". Miss Buffalo Chip is the winner of the Sturgis beauty contest, a contest which apparently often features full nudity (at a biker rally? No!). You can see where this is heading...
Admittedly, it's not like the left is apoplectic with fake rage like the right wing would be, but still, everybody calm down. It was a bad, not-thought-out joke. Does every syllable uttered by a candidate deserve it's own blog meme?
