First, we have a potential fail in the making with Rahm having left the White House to run for mayor of Chicago. One tiny problem: he is probably ineligible to run:
Odelson told Roe and Roeper on WLS Radio that when Emanuel leased out his Chicago home he could no longer claim he is a resident.
“He rented his house out in Sept 09 and has not been back since and has no residency in Chicago,” Odelson said.
Odelson says he has been involved in several residency cases in Illinois that “the law is clear.”
But the best fail of the day comes from Rick Sanchez at Cnn, having a surprising anti-semitic flame out. He was on a radio show, attacking Jon Stewart for being prejudiced toward him as a Hispanic, and the radio host asked him what he would say to the point that Stewart, as a Jew, was a minority, too:
Please, what are you kidding? … I’m telling you that everybody who runs CNN is a lot like Stewart, and a lot of people who run all the other networks are a lot like Stewart, and to imply that somehow they — the people in this country who are Jewish — are an oppressed minority? Yeah. [sarcastically]
So basically the jews—er, I mean, the JOOOOOOS—run the media.
This is what identity politics leads to: bigotry.
Meanwhile, this isn’t quite a fail, but I threw up in my mouth a little reading this puff piece about the fame whore Gloria Allred.
By the way, when Whitman’s former maid is facing lawsuits for fraud and deportation, how good a friend will Allred seem to her?
